- MHMargarita HolubenkoOct 14, 20255.0We’ve been with this daycare for 4 years, and I couldn’t be happier! My older one is in kindergarten already , and my little one just started his first year in Preschool Pathways — and we absolutely love it! The teachers and staff are so kind, patient, and genuinely care for the children. You can really feel how much love and attention they put into everything they do. The director, Mrs.Kulbeda is an amazing woman who truly knows every child and family; she creates such a positive, welcoming atmosphere. My kids are happy, learning, and excited to go every day — and as a parent, that means everything. Highly recommend this place!

Its amazing to see a lot of the same teachers still there, you know management is doing something right! The curriculum and culture is fantastic and I know my kiddos were and are taken care of, loved, and are safe with our primrose family!

- JBJustin BurnsNov 2, 20245.0In our experience with Primrose School, we’ve truly appreciated how much the teachers genuinely care about each child. They’re incredibly attentive and create an environment where children feel valued and understood. The curriculum is thoughtfully designed to engage and develop young minds, and the teachers consistently find ways to make learning fun and memorable. What stands out is how they partner with parents, like when they helped our daughter with potty training—it was such a success thanks to their support and helping reinforce behaviors. We also love the special event they organize, adding extra joy and excitement for the kids. It’s been wonderful knowing our daughter is in such caring and capable hands.
