From the very first day our boys joined the Primrose family, we knew we had made the right choice. Every single teacher at the school is wonderful and genuinely cares about each child’s growth and development. When we drop them off, we always feel confident knowing they are in such caring and capable hands.
It’s not just the teachers, though—the entire Primrose team is incredible. Every staff member goes above and beyond to create a nurturing, supportive environment where the children can truly thrive. We are so grateful for everything they do!

We’ve been at Primrose Sterling Ranch for about 2.5 years now and have had an overall great experience. The staff is friendly and seem to genuinely care about our kiddo. He enjoys going to school and the updates we receive throughout the day help to keep us connected. Overall, we are very happy with the progress and he is learning new things all the time. I’d recommend Primrose SR to others based on our experience.

We have had a great experience sending our kids to Primrose in Sterling Ranch over the last three years. The owners, Mike and Mandy, have been extremely accommodating to our family’s needs throughout the years. Not only are the teachers very in tune with each child but the entire administration knows each child individually, which makes me feel good as a parent. Highly recommend.

I had called to schedule a tour to meet with Kelly in the Spring as we were preparing to move across the country from Nj. We had been in a Primrose here and loved it. After emailing her about a time to meet, I showed up and she was in a meeting. She had the date and time wrong. Additionally, I had contacted the school with plenty of notice as updates occurred with moving and when the children would start. As you can imagine, moving across the country is a big ordeal. Things are not set in stone and change is often out of our control. One thing I wanted to be certain of is the quality and care I expected with primrose. I wanted to make sure my children had a place where they would be comfortable. Unfortunately I received an email which did not stand up to the values I thought Primrose had universally. Given the harsh tone of the email and not even a phone call to discuss our individual situation, I cannot in good faith send my children to this location.

We couldn’t be happier with the teachers and staff at this daycare. Everyone is so patient and loving with the kids. We know our baby girl is happy, fed, clean, and loved. We appreciate the photo updates, as well as the extremely detailed logging of all her daily activities through the daycare app. They’re always sending us home with artwork and crafts they did that day. The teachers are creative and keep the babies engaged and learning. We’re thrilled we got in, because there is high demand for this daycare. The facilities are beautiful as well!
