  We’ve had such a wonderful experience at Primrose! It’s always clear how much the staff truly cares. The teachers are incredibly warm, patient, and nurturing. Management is amazing and positively supportive of staff and with the kids. They greet every child by name and even know the parents, which makes it feel like such a close knit community. They also do an amazing job with special events. Our kids absolutely loved things like Spring Fling and Trunk or Treat. We’re so grateful to be part of the Primrose family and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a caring, engaging daycare!

  We’ve been at Primrose for nearly two years and couldn’t be more grateful for our experience. After a terrible experience at another local center, the difference has been night and day. From day one, Ms. Karen, Falgun, and the entire team made our family feel welcome. The staff create a warm, supportive environment, and the teachers are calm, patient, and genuinely nurturing. It’s clear they truly care about the children and their development. We feel confident every day that our child is in a safe, loving environment, and that peace of mind means everything. We’re so thankful to be part of the Primrose community.

  A fantastic school that feels like a second home. All the teachers here know my entire family and make us feel incredible welcome. If you are looking for a loving, caring, school that enriches your kids then there is no better school in Howard County.

  Primrose of Ellicott City is truly a special place. From the moment your family becomes part of the Primrose community, you feel a sense of belonging that is hard to put into words. I had three children go through Primrose of Ellicott City from infants to 4s. We loved every teacher and assistant. Each day, families are greeted by name, and the staff—including the owner and director—take the time to genuinely know your child and your family. When you drop your child off in the morning, you have complete peace of mind knowing they are not only safe, but deeply cared for—almost as if you were leaving them with a loving family member. The team clearly understands child development and thoughtfully supports each child’s individual needs. Diversity and inclusion are not just talked about; they are intentionally reflected in daily interactions and instruction. Academically, Primrose sets children up for success. You can be confident that your child will meet developmental milestones. Unlike other schools or centers, Primrose also has educational coaches that support teaching and learning. The staff are highly trained and participate in ongoing professional development focused on the Primrose curriculum, child development, and safety. Children are learning through intentional play. Families receive regular updates on progress and have opportunities to engage through conferences and school events. The staff consistently goes above and beyond. Stop looking. This is where you want your family to be and your child to grow up. ~We miss all the amazing staff~

  We had a great experience at Primrose School of Ellicott City. Both of our kids went there, and the teachers and staff were always kind, patient, and easy to work with. Our kids were happy and comfortable, which made drop-offs stress-free. Communication was solid, and we always felt like our kids were well cared for. Also many of the teachers and staff have been there for years, which provided consistency. Lastly the school provides lunch, snacks, diapers, etc., which made life easier for our busy family. We’d definitely recommend the Primrose School to other families.
