September 25, 2024 at 2:59 pmAll members of team are welcoming and expert. My kids are so cheerful and settled here. The ladies have a genuine interest in the kids and make them sense loved and cared for. The ladies are incredible at working with parents, offering guidance and assistance, if the parents ask. The kids are involved in all types of activities and the ladies are very cheerful to incorporate new interests the kids have. I am so glad that I chose Serpentine childcare centre for my kids. I highly suggest Serpentine childcare centre.

October 20, 2024 at 5:33 pmThe correspondence and settling in sessions have all been stellar.
The team are welcoming and sense extremely comfortable and confident in leaving my kid in this setting.
When I collect, my kid has consistently been well looked after and is cheerful.
I get a big hug when I collect, but when we next arrive, he gives me a big wave ‘bye mummy’, so I know there is not a shadow of a doubt that my little one loves his time at Serpentine. We enrolled our kid in September.

November 10, 2024 at 8:23 amThe childcare centre is lovely, and the team who care for her are absolutely remarkable; I cannot praise them enough. I sense they look after her so well; they are consistently welcoming and supportive. My daughter had a cows milk allergy, and they have gone above and beyond to ensure she is catered for. The activities are exceptional, she has learnt so much from them. I adore getting updates on the app, seeing what she has been up to; the best part is she consistently has a smile on her face. My daughter has been attending Serpentine childcare centre since September 2020.

November 11, 2024 at 5:26 pmFrom day one of my eldest starting to now where my youngest is in his final year there, I’ve never had a negative thing to say. The team are so compassionate and welcoming and have such a great standard of training. My son struggled with his social and emotional development, and the team at Serpentine put so much in place to meet his needs and we’re exceptional in following his behaviour assistance plan. He now has overcome a lot of the challenges he faced, and I have the hard work of all the team to thank for that! I would suggest Serpentine to any parent looking for a childcare centre where they want their kid to be cheerful, healthy and learn so much in such enjoyable ways! updates between childcare centre and parents is exceptional using the app, but they are also consistently at the end of the phone too, more than willing to help in any way they can. Serpentine childcare centre is such a inviting and welcoming place.

December 3, 2024 at 3:40 pmThe ladies who work here are welcoming, loving, incredible human beings, and they put your mind at ease with any worries you may have. I really do highly suggest a walk around when you’re deciding what childcare centre you’d like.
I remember walking around with my son, and I got a feeling straight away that my son would adore it here, and I got the same feeling 2-years on with my daughter. My son had a whale of a time, and my daughter is too. My son came to this childcare centre, so sending my youngest who is 9-months was a no brainer.

December 8, 2024 at 8:56 amThey take excellent thought in what activities they do, and the kids have plenty of outside time as well.
Would suggest this childcare centre to anyone! Serpentine childcare centre is a lovely childcare centre, and I sense they take the time and energy to ensure my little girl felt comfortable and welcomed when she first started.
Also, when she moved up a group, they did it with excellent planning, which meant my daughter got the care and attention to help her sense comfortable and now loves the new group she’s in!
Just an all-round remarkable childcare centre, and just shows how excellent there are when my little girl goes running into childcare centre each time and comes out with a smile on her face!

December 22, 2024 at 3:20 pmMy daughter consistently has so much enjoyable, and the team are all really welcoming. The team take time to talk through the kid’s day and post pictures/updates for you to see. They seem to genuinely care about the kids who attend. The selection of food is also really great. I would definitely suggest Serpentine.

January 7, 2025 at 4:40 pmShe absolutely loves it. She has made so many friends and can’t get away from us quick enough in the mornings when we drop her off! The team at the childcare centre are incredible. They’re welcoming, thoughtful and remarkable at listening to requests and dealing with problems should they arise. Due to Covid, she had to swap and change certain days, they were so supportive when it came to sorting out her attendance. They give her little notes to bring home at the end of each day, which tells us what she has been doing there, and I am keeping them in a little folder to look back on when she is older. I rarely get to pick her up for childcare centre as I work full time, so it’s lovely to know what she has been doing during the day. I also cannot praise the app profile updates enough that we get for her with pictures and videos and also little notes showing her development. remarkable childcare centre; we couldn’t ask for anymore. Thank you! My daughter has been attending Serpentine childcare centre since March 2021.

January 26, 2025 at 3:02 amShe loves it here and it has helped her develop her social and discovering abilities. The team have been remarkable; they create a very secure and welcoming setting for playtime and discovering. They are exceptional at building positive relationships with the kids and helping them to thrive in a secure and attentive setting. Our daughter attends this childcare centre and has done since she was 11-months-old.

March 6, 2025 at 9:11 pmThe boys are never bored. The team manage to think of all different sorts of activities both in and outdoor. The boys adore nothing more than being outside come rain or shine and the team fully embrace that too. The online system is fabulous as the team upload photographs and videos of the things they have been up to. This is lovely as a parent to be able to see what they have been busy doing. It is consistently nice to know the boys have had a great hot meal at lunchtime, they delight in a mix of meals on a rolling menu. I would 100% suggest, my boys have thrived and I put this down to the adore and effort all of the team put in! I have been using Serpentine childcare centre for the last 3 years and regularly suggest them.

March 10, 2025 at 4:27 pmThere is continual review and development of facilities and activities. The theming goes across many developmental areas and the atmosphere is one of cheerful, stimulated kids. updates from the childcare centre to parents is outstanding and they are consistently open to discussion. Given the increasing funding constraints on this sector, what they offer is first-rate and we are very cheerful with it. Serpentine childcare centre has a committed team team who are well trained, know their jobs and are welcoming and expert with parents and kids.
Rowan Keller
March 16, 2025 at 2:59 pmThe team have been incredible, consistently encouraging her and reassuring us. We get regular photo updates of her activities and playing. The outside space is exceptional and includes a mud kitchen, sandpit and a slide. There is lots of opportunity for imaginative playtime. We have also opted for our daughter to go swimming every week too which is really supportive for our family. Our daughter is 3, we send her 5 mornings per week term time as she gets 15 hours funded and we pay a small top-up fee. I’m so glad we picked this preschool for our daughter.

April 4, 2025 at 4:29 pmSerpentine couldn’t have been more kid-focused and reacted positively to his joining.
All the team have been really attentive, welcoming and understanding. The kids get lots of outside playtime time, which is really important to me. The size of groups and interactions is really comfortable across our whole journey. My son missed much of his childcare centre due to lockdown/Covid, so was a bit late starting.

April 13, 2025 at 4:12 pmthe team have been incredible (especially through lockdown). My little girl consistently is so excited to go to the baby bears and loves the activities. updates is incredible! incredible!
My little girl came to the childcare centre at 3-months-old…

April 28, 2025 at 10:01 amThe team are really attentive and our kids adore going there. They are consistently doing enjoyable stuff- playing outside, walks, baking, messy playtime etc.
Our son needs some extra assistance with his speech and the team have been really on the ball with chasing his referral and doing language exercises with him. We’ve been using Serpentine childcare centre for over 3 years and would really suggest it.

May 1, 2025 at 3:29 amMy kid has continued to develop well here and continues to learn new things at home and at childcare centre. team are very supportive and understanding; they assistance you with what you’re doing with your kid and will continue to do so even when they are in the childcare centre.

May 11, 2025 at 4:51 amFrom day one of my son going, he was instantly at ease as was I, there is outstanding parent updates and the daily feedback/online tapestry helps me to sense part of my son’s childcare centre day. The team listen when you tell them what your kid likes/dislikes and from that, I’ve seen that they provide playtime that sparks an interest with each individual kid. The outdoor playtime area they have is incredible, no other childcare centre in Buxton compares, highly recommended. Serpentine is a lovely childcare centre, from the get-go, they accommodated everything that myself and kid needed from a childcare centre.
Parker Reid
June 7, 2025 at 4:17 amAll of the team are remarkable with the kids and know how to manage them effectively to provide a secure, welcoming, well-stimulated setting. Both my kids have/do attend and have been nurtured throughout. I could not have asked for anything more for them.
The range of activities to suit all kids at every level provides a excellent combination of nurture, playtime and discovering. Their ability to foster kids’s self‑assurance and provide them with the space to grow and develop their personalities and friendships is excellent to see. Both of my kids adore / loved their time at childcare centre and consistently came out with a smile on their face and often asked to attend when it wasn’t a ‘childcare centre day’.
The range of meals and snacks provided are outstanding and they cater well for additional dietary requirements. I would definitely suggest this childcare centre to any of my friends or families kids. Serpentine childcare centre is an absolutely exceptional childcare centre.
Marley Irwin
June 15, 2025 at 2:10 amThe team are very welcoming and really look after the kids well. The meals are outstanding with daily choices for the main meal, which my son can pick as he comes in in the morning. The outdoor playtime area is remarkable for all ages, and they make great use of the Pavilion Gardens which is opposite. My son has learnt so much from the team, and his social skills are outstanding due to childcare centre. I would happily suggest Serpentine childcare centre to all. My son has been attending Serpentine for just over two years now, and he loves going, which has made everything so much easier as a parent going back to work full time.
