We have had nothing but amazing experience since enrolling our daughter in the Primrose school of Peter’s Township. Daycare is a difficult transition on its own for a family but finding primrose helped eliminate the stress and worry right away. We were shocked at the drastic difference we observed when visiting other schools and had no doubt that primrose was the only place for us. Their school is always clean, the staff is always welcoming and their curriculum, even for infants, is always purposeful. They also update their app all day long which is AMAZING for any parent to still feel connected through out the day and easily communicate with the teachers. We can tell that all of the staff truly care about our daughter and would highly recommend for any parent looking for a daycare that stands out above the rest !

The top choice for your kids in the area
It was hard letting go on the first day but we were reassured from her teacher in toddler 2 and saw how quickly she warmed up to her. The next few weeks she was actually excited to see her teacher and go to school.
We love getting the pictures from her classroom of the different activities they are doing throughout the day.
Everytime i drop off i know this place is safe and secure i feel at ease

We’ve had a great experience with Primrose. We love the early education our kids are receiving and most importantly, we know they are safe and well taken care of during the day. The teachers there care about the children and it’s evident. Communication is top notch, which is very important to us. Ms Angela blew our expectations out of the water while our child transitioned in (which was a big deal for our family), and the infant room teachers are amazing. We could not ask for better care!
