I can’t say enough wonderful things about Serendipity. The staff is not only highly qualified but also incredibly kind, patient, and genuinely caring toward every child. The center is clean, safe, and organized, with a thoughtful balance of structured learning and free play. Between incorporating creative activities, outdoor time, and educational themes into each week. Communication with parents is top-notch—they keep us updated with daily reports, photos, and upcoming events, Ms. Rebecca is Extremely helpful, resourceful, and detailed! It’s clear that the entire team is passionate about early childhood development and treats each child like family. It’s truly a place where children are nurtured, encouraged, and allowed to grow in a loving environment. I highly recommend them to any parent looking for exceptional care!

My two year old has been attending this daycare since he was about 8-9 months old. I truly like how everything is maintained, cleanliness, and professional staff. While I am at work, I get updates from pictures to summaries of activities that were done throughout the day. All kids are separated by age group which I really like. I recommend this daycare! :)
