Primrose has honestly been the best place we could’ve chosen for our kids. The curriculum is structured in a way that really fits how my kids learn and grow, and it’s been amazing watching them hit new milestones because of it. The staff is always warm, welcoming, and easy to talk to, and they keep us in the loop every single day. The daily photos and updates are huge for us—they give so much peace of mind while we’re at work.
They also put on great events that make the whole experience feel more like a community than just a school. Overall, we’re genuinely grateful to have our kids here. I’d recommend Primrose to any parent looking for a place that’s organized, caring, and truly invested in helping their kids thrive.

The teachers treat every child as if they were their own — with genuine care, patience, and so much love. They take the time to understand each child individually, personalizing lessons and development plans so the kids are not only learning but thriving.
What really stands out is how excited our children are to go to school each day. They adore their teachers, their classmates, and the warm, joyful environment Primrose has created. It’s a place where they feel safe, supported, and celebrated for who they are.
We are incredibly grateful for the dedication, thoughtfulness, and heart that the entire team pours into each day. Primrose has given our children a place to grow, build friendships, and truly shine. Highly recommend!

My daughter spent her 1 year old to 2 year old here. She went from toddler to early preschool. Many teachers and staffs have taken care of her. They are all very warm and caring. The support staffs are also well present while needed. It always amazed me how well behaved the kids are as toddlers. It always looked super cute when the little humans sitting around seriously. The teachers and student rario is more than good and every kid was given enough attention. The Procare app always send put pictures of my daughter being held by someone during activities. I appreciate that so much. My daughter also made good friends here and she remembers every name of her friends. She looked forward to school which was such a relief to me. If anything not so good, is that the price is pretty high, and young kids are frequently sick, and when they are sick you need to take days off at home to take care of them rather than sending them to school. However, every daycare has these down sides. We moved to Texas this year, chose another Primrose. Price is cheaper. But bigger classroom and student to teacher ratio, classroom is much more chaotic than Chelmsford. Now I’d rather pay a little more.

I would not put my infant in this school. When I first called this school, I was told that there are two infant classrooms, one classroom for 0-6 months and one for 6-12 months babies. The day we dropped our daughter at the school she was almost 5 months old. However, as the school wanted to have both classrooms full to the capacity they put our daughter in Infant Classroom B with babies 7-, 8-, 11-, and 13-month old! Our daughter got a diaper rash after the first day at the school. The rash got so bad after three days that the school called and said maybe it is better to keep her at home because of the rash. When we took our daughter to her pediatrician, she said “they are not changing her”! After keeping her at home for five days, and after the rash was gone, we took her to the school. They asked us what the pediatrician said but we needed to be nice and we couldn't say that she said you guys are not changing her, so we said her skin is sensitive and let us show you how to change diaper and how much diaper cream to apply!!!! So I went in and showed them how to change diapers! One day my husband went to pick up our daughter and he heard her crying in the hallway, when he got to the classroom, the teachers started to make excuses as to why they were not picking her up off the ground with all the other older kids!! Our daughter kept getting diaper rash and it was difficult to care for her at home with both of us working. We started to look for a nanny and when we gave our withdrawal notification and removed our belongings from the school, the director wrote back that we have a very long waitlist, but when my husband asked her if the school is going to charge us for 30 days or if only till our daughter’s spot is backfilled for the waiting list, she wrote back in capital letter "as written in the contract for the whole duration of 30 days"! Again, I would think hard before putting my infant in this school.

our experience with this school is not so good, the staff's attitude is ice cold, our son never felt happy to be there even after a few month, plus the virus surge, we decided to stop sending our son to there, but the staff told me despite the virus surge, we need to pay a extra month if we decided to stop sending our son there.
