This is literally the greatest school in Indianapolis. I was so fortunate to find this jewel a few blocks from my home after having had so many terrible experiences at other facilities throughout the city. Primrose is consistent, professional, thoughtful, caring, community and family oriented! We are thankful to be part of this family! My son is learning so much, has wonderful manners and is loved and cared for by all of his teachers! I have peace of mind knowing my son is in phenomenal hands! Thank you Primrose for providing such stellar care and education!!

My son started at Primrose when he was 2 months old. The caregivers are so sweet and truly love their jobs. The front staff know each child by name. It makes you feel so much better leaving your child knowing they care so much. Super clean plus the activities they do with the children are above and beyond. I highly recommend them

This is our first experience with any daycare for our infant and the Geist Primrose staff have been very welcoming and patient with all of our new-parent questions and concerns. We have no doubt that our child is getting the best care.
