What Parents Say
5 reviews from parents
Primrose School of College Station has been an amazing place for my child. The teachers are warm, caring, and truly dedicated to the children’s growth. My child is learning so much every day, not just academically, but also socially and emotionally. The curriculum is engaging and keeps them excited about coming to school. I also really appreciate the safe and nurturing environment they provide. It gives me peace of mind knowing my child is well cared for while also having fun and learning. The staff communicates well and always makes us feel welcomed and supported. We are so grateful to be part of the Primrose family. I would highly recommend this school to any parent looking for a safe, caring, and educational environment for their child!
We love Primrose!!! Staff here are amazing with the kids. Great curriculum with the kids and always doing learning activities with the younger children. Its not just a "daycare".
Primrose has been the biggest blessing for me & my little family! My daughter has been learning & growing so much & her teachers/staff are always so caring! Highly recommended, for sure!
We could not have asked for a better place to send our children. We experienced three wonderful years at Primrose. All of the teachers and staff made it such a positive experience for our whole family. Both of my boys have now started public school, but I will miss Primrose. When you send your children there, you truly become part of the Primrose family. ❤️
Overall we have been very pleased with the care our daughter has received at Primrose. We are now in our 4 classroom there, and even though our daughter has a bit of separation anxiety when we drop her off, she does very well in class and loves to talk about all her friends and teachers after school. When we first came to Primrose she was just over a year old and quickly picked up half a dozen different signs that helped her communicate well with us.
