  We had an absolutely amazing experience at Primrose School of Woodbury and truly cannot recommend them enough. There is nothing more valuable as a parent than having complete peace of mind when you drop your children off each day, knowing they are in the hands of people who genuinely care about them. Our girls were so loved, supported, and cared for during their time at Primrose, and we watched them learn, grow, and thrive. The teachers and staff became such an important part of their lives, and it was always clear how much they truly cared about our kids as individuals. Leaving Primrose was incredibly bittersweet for our family. We are so grateful for the love, patience, guidance, and care they gave our girls and for the peace of mind they gave us as parents. We will always look back on our time there with so much gratitude and would wholeheartedly recommend Primrose School of Woodbury to any family.

  My kids (now almost 5) have been going to Woodbury Primrose for a few years now and they’ve really enjoyed it. The teachers and administration are great. We really feel like they take care of and support our kids as if they were their own.

  If your child is neurodivergent, or if they need additional support with emotional regulation, I would encourage you to carefully consider whether this is the right environment for your family. Based on our experience, Primrose was not equipped to support a child whose needs fell even slightly outside the neurotypical range. My son was a "lifer" at Primrose. He attended from the time he was six months old, and if you had asked me a year ago whether I would ever leave a negative review, I would have laughed in disbelief. We trusted the school, appreciated many of the teachers, and fully expected him to complete his time there. As he transitioned from Pre-K to Kindergarten, he began experiencing some emotional regulation challenges. He is incredibly bright but not neurotypical. We took those concerns seriously. We maintained open communication with the school, responded whenever they contacted us, worked with him consistently at home, and placed him on multiple waitlists for occupational therapy. Once we were able to begin therapy, we actively participated in helping him develop the skills he needed. Our plan was for him to attend the Explorers summer program three days a week before moving on to elementary school. Instead, we were told the school could no longer meet his care needs because of his emotional regulation, despite the fact that he had shown significant improvement and had not experienced a major incident in quite some time. The decision was presented as being "what was best for him." From our perspective, it was incredibly difficult to understand how excluding a child from spending one final summer with the only school, teachers, and friends he had ever known could be considered in his best interest. We asked the school to reconsider, especially given the progress he had made and the professional support he was receiving, but they stood by their decision. Today, after leaving Primrose, he is doing well. He has continued to make meaningful progress, and seeing him succeed has caused us to reflect on whether many of his challenges could have been better supported rather than viewed as reasons for exclusion. If your child is highly active, gifted, neurodivergent, or simply learns and regulates emotions differently than their peers, I encourage you to ask detailed questions about the school's ability to support those needs before enrolling. Primrose offers many strengths, but our experience suggests that when a child's needs extend beyond what is considered typical, the resources and support may not be sufficient.

  Primrose School is OUTSTANDING! The staff and teachers are amazing. They hosted the a fun-filled Halloween Trick or Treat event last night, and it was really fun for kids. It looked like the entire school showed up for the event. Thank you, Primrose for welcoming my grand daughter and entire family.
