- LHLisa HardyDec 16, 20245.0These ladies are saving my life. No one in my village is more reliable, professional and caring when it comes to taking care of these kids. There has not been one minute that I've worried about them when they are at Primrose. What a relief. There is no expression of gratitude that would convey how grateful I am.
- RVRasta VascoOct 7, 20243.0I love the school, and my son loves it too. The only issue I have is that when I bring my daughter in the morning, the teachers in her class are not very live and welcoming. They are always sitting down. I'm the one telling my daughter to find a place to sit. I would love to see them happy to see the kids come to school if that's why they are there. Other than that, I don't have any comment. Not forgetting this is P 1 class
- DYDanica YoonAug 26, 20245.0We enrolled our daughter when she was two. Ms. Moore and Ms. Posada are awesome. Our daughter got comfortable and adjusted well in just 3 months (considering this was not her regular/routine environment and was a Covid baby). I give them a lot of credit for her growth in their class. I really appreciated how consistent they were with sending daily pics of our daughter and any necessary school reminders. Transition to the advancing class was smooth; though we went through some changes with a few teachers; our daughter had nothing but nice things to say about them (Ms. Rose, Ms. Marshall). Ms. Pereira and Ms. Middleton were also amazing. They taught some Spanish in class which was an extra bonus to us. Our daughter was always excited to go to school. She further transitioned into the PreK class with Ms. Gaines and Ms. Straker, who were also great with our daughter. The chef, Ms. Keisha is so sweet, she always has a smile on. The leadership/admin team (Ms. Liddell, Ms. Joseph, Ms. Beavers, Ms. Rastogi) are all great, helpful, and overall makes the process easy for the parents. If we could do it all over again, we would choose Primrose Gambrills. Thank you being a big part of our daughters toddlerhood!

- KWKristie WelchAug 18, 20234.0Today holds so many emotions for me as we both celebrate and close a major chapter in our family's journey - saying goodbye to the Primrose School of Gambrills. Although many have moved on (we miss them!), so many good teachers and staff still remain. They have been a true partner in these first eight years of teaching and raising our kids. From the very first day to this last day, they have provided us a peace of mind all parents need from their care giver, and have filled our hearts with love and joy as they tirelessly encouraged, mentored, supported, laughed with, celebrated with, cried with, and taught us. Thank you, Primrose, for being such an important part of our journey and story! We will miss you! For the curious minds: We gave 4 stars instead of 5 because there were some bumps in the road along the way, there are some things we wish the leadership team was more transparent about, and (being "get to yes" type people) there were times when we felt more might have been possible. Bottom line, there is always room for improvement.
