- AJAkilah JonesNov 12, 20255.0Primrose in West Orange has a supportive community and a safe learning environment.
- BPBianca PebblesNov 7, 20251.0Public Service Announcement parents and staff members, my sister currently has her children enrolled inside of this school and it is awful. Do Not let these people smiles and laughs fool you. This school has had ongoing investigations involving children and CPS. Teachers fighting near children and throwing insults I mean it is awful. I’m warning parents before enrolling your children in this school take proper precautions and do your research !!!
- YDYan DingAug 27, 20255.0Our daughter started her daycare with Primrose at 11 months. They took really good care of her. She grows well and learns many good habits, gets to know many friends. Highly recommend Primrose for babies and toddlers!
- RDRebecca DiGangiJul 7, 20255.0We have been with Primrose since my older daughter was 4 mos. She is now 2 1/2 and my younger daughter (10 mos) is there as well. The teachers are always genuine in the care for my children, encouraging their development, milestones and providing comfort when we are not there to do so. I appreciate the curriculum which is taught to the girls, exposing them to different words and concepts. I value the music and arts in which the girls are provided the opportunity to participate. Finally, I think the socialization with other children is extremely important for their development and adaptability.
- AHAlaina HuckeJun 3, 20255.0The teachers have support the development of my child beyond our expectations. She is better for attending and being in the care of the Primrose teachers & staff.
