See What Families Are Saying

Primrose has been great for my family. My son started at 18 months old and I've loved watching him grow and learn on a daily basis. The staff members are warm and caring, and form real bonds with the children. Everyone knows my son's name and he is always happy to go to go to school. I especially LOVE that they provide meals throughout the day. It has really helped my picky eater try new things. And it's SO supportive to me, as a working mom, knowing that he is eating healthy food that I don't have to stress about preparing every day.

We have been so lucky to have found Primrose! Our son has been attending for almost two years, and wow, what progress! He went from being a late talker to a total chatterbox, and loves the predictable routines and room for play in his days at school. We love the lessons and activities, and his teachers are so kind and devoted.
