- JPJi Eun ParkDec 11, 20255.0We are so happy we chose Primrose for our son’s first daycare. The teachers are caring and attentive, truly catering to each child’s individual needs. The staff and administrators are also wonderful—warm, professional, and always supportive. The location is convenient for parents who work in Center City, which has been a huge plus. We would highly recommend Primrose to any family.
- BWBrigitte WooSep 30, 20255.0We lived in Center City, Philadelphia, for the past year and enrolled our child in Primrose. She had the best time in the school. They learned through play, making school fun. The teachers (even those who weren’t teaching my child) and staff know the children by name. The place is clean and well maintained. The school makes an effort to bring the children out for walks and outdoor play when the weather permits. They do a tour of the school before you decide so I think it’s really helpful for parents who are deciding on the best place for their children.
- KWKim WoynowskieSep 19, 20255.0Primrose has been exceptional for our family from day one—literally. Our daughter started here at just 6 weeks old, and the care, attention, and love she has received have been nothing short of amazing. The staff is truly exceptional—every teacher and caregiver creates a warm, nurturing environment where we always felt confident she was safe, happy, and thriving.
- ASAshley SineSep 23, 20245.0Primrose in Center City is really great! We feel very comfortable with the staff and leadership and would highly recommend it to any one with young children!
- LLLiandra LarsenJul 9, 20245.0The best decision we made for our newborn was choosing Primrose School of Center City Philadelphia! We had to enroll her at just six weeks and the care our daughter received was unmatched. The bonds she was able to make with her teachers and peers was so special during her time there. We only withdrew because we moved out of state. As a parent, I can say with confidence that you won't regret enrolling your child here. Giving a special shoutout to Ms. Bryant, Ms. Asid, Ms. Waiters, Ms. Dahl, Ms. Galati, and Ms. Stewart. We miss you all!
