- CCClaudia P. CoronadoJan 5, 20265.0As a mom of a bilingual child, I really appreciate how attentive they are in making sure my child feels included, supported, and fully integrated. The teachers are patient, understanding, and respectful of language differences, which has made a big positive impact on my child’s confidence and learning.
- KPKaitlyn PAug 18, 20255.0My daughter loves walking into school everyday and is welcomed with a warm smile and hug which lets me know she feels loved and cared for. As a mom I couldn’t imagine my child learning and growing anywhere else. The staff are so welcoming and take the time to get to know each family on a personal level and make my family feel special. We absolutely adore Primrose School at Lakewood Ranch North.
- JJJayAug 14, 20255.0My daughter's time at Primrose was a positive experience, thanks to her wonderful teachers. Their care and dedication were truly appreciated. However, our family's experience with the administration, specifically with director Carlee Peterson, was very concerning. We were considering enrolling our three-year-old, and without our authorization, she took it upon herself to debit our account the registration fee. Normally, the Procare app is a tool that requires parents to authorize payments for charges. But in this case, the money was taken immediately and without our consent. When we decided not to enroll our son, Carlee refused to issue a refund. This was not only an unauthorized charge but also a clear lack of fairness. This experience, along with an outstanding refund due to overpayment, which we are still waiting on since early May, has completely eroded our trust in the school's leadership. I urge other parents to be extremely cautious and vigilant regarding billing and communication with the school's administration and specifically with Carlee Peterson. **Update 8/28/2025** Leadership reached out and apologized sincerely. I received a check in the mail today. Review has been updated to 5 stars as the staff were amazing outside of this incident.
- SPSofia PetronioAug 21, 20245.0My son, who is almost 3 years old, has been at Primrose North since he was just 3 months old, and it has truly become his second home. He’s always happy to go to daycare every day, which speaks volumes about the environment they’ve created. I’ve had nothing but great experiences with every classroom and every teacher he’s had over the years. I’m looking forward to the remaining years we have here until he’s ready for school. I’m so grateful that my son is part of the Primrose North family! 🩵
