- LELisa E.3 days ago5.0Our daughter loves Primrose, and so do we. The teachers are excellent, truly care about her and Ms. Nikki is always there for concerns- and tries her absolute best to resolve any issues. We feel very comfortable there and are very thankful for them.
- MMMonica MSep 18, 20252.0My husband and I arrived for a tour about 6 minutes late (he was on crutches due to a torn ACL at the time) and upon arriving the director proceeded to take an interview in her office. We were ignored for 25 minutes before I approached the receptionist to ask when the tour would begin. That's when the director said "well you guys were late so..." I understood that we were late but it was obvious my husband was on crutches and that doesn't warrant ignoring a potential family. The tour was ok, but the staff looked over worked and like they didn't want to be there. There was also a medical emergency with a staff member so our tour was cut short. I took that as an obvious sign that this school was not for our family. Overall, seems well structured but overpriced and not a very welcoming environment. Also, a fee of about $150 or 250 was required just to get on a wait list. No thank you.
- ABAdam BuechlerAug 4, 20255.0All the staff is welcoming every day, very clean, and teachers are very personable and a delight
- LGLisa GrosskrugerJul 14, 20255.0Staff is really caring, they organize sweet events for the kids, and communication in person and through the app is great. We were nervous about choosing a day care but we feel so confident that our child is in great hands with them.
- ATAlex TranJun 10, 20255.0A warm and welcoming school that truly cares about each child’s development—highly recommend.
