Our experience at Gardner School has been great (currently in our 6th year at Gardner school with two more years to go!) for two main reason - the teachers are AMAZING and office staff organize the best activities for kids and families to enjoy. We have been so lucky with the amazing teachers each of our kids have had while at the school. They truly care about the children and are genuinely invested in their happiness and success at school! My kids who have graduated leave the school confident and completely ready for kindergarten. My child still in the school looks forward to going each day because of the welcoming teachers and inviting activities put on by the front staff. With the challenges that providing great child care can bring, it is clear TGS Franklin works diligently to provide the best possible experience for our sweet kiddos and we greatly appreciate it!

The Gardner School has made a huge difference in my little one's life. She has become more social and instantly started learning.

The teachers are excellent at working with the kids - making it fun while helping them learn, especially in the pre-K program. Our daughter has learnt to write very quickly and looks forward to school every day.

We LOVE TGS Franklin! Not only does Jack love going to school but he’s also learning and growing so much this year. We appreciate all the communication and constant pictures and videos of activities, learning, and social interactions with friends. All of the reasons we send him to school. Ms. Monica cares about teaching her 4 year olds more than just letter and numbers but how to talk to one another, how to answer open ended questions, how to express their feelings, and so much more. She is a great teacher and we are so grateful for how she cares for Jack. We are confident he is safe and cared for and that Karina, Nicole, and Ava are always on top of things and keeping the school running safely and smoothly.

Competent and caring teachers that make learning exciting. Our experience here has been night and day from our previous school. I didn’t realize how much I used to worry about our kids at their previous school and it has been a huge weight lifted. I have not worried for one second about our kids while they are at the Gardner school and I love that they are excited each day when they arrive.

We love the teachers and staff. They are caring, attentive, and clearly invested in each child. Our son is learning so much and is thriving in the classroom, which has been fantastic to see. We also feel truly valued as parents. Communication is warm and open, and we always feel like part of the school community

Easy check-in and check-out process Updates about my child throughout the day Consistent staffing so my child is not constantly changing teachers and classrooms Outdoor play and age-appropriate activities Learning essential pre-kindergarten skills, especially writing

Incredible school, faculty, and facilities. We are so grateful our son had such a caring and well-run place to prepare him for elementary school.

Good teachers and great care for the kids. I think the management is able to keep a healthy ratio of teacher to student and most efficient with keeping a busy curriculum with fun outdoor events.

I am so impressed by the teachers' passion! They truly care for each student individually and create such valuable, unique experiences that she wouldn't be able to have at home. They also provide wonderful advice tailored to her growth, and we are so grateful for all their support. Thanks to them, my daughter is growing freely and confidently as herself, and she absolutely loves her teachers and The Gardner School. We cannot thank you enough

The curriculum and the safety measurements that are in place are the reason that we chose and stayed at TGS Franklin for 3 years. I feel that my kiddo is more than prepared for kindergarten both socially and educational. The parents have also been a great source of community with birthday invites and many friendships made. We are sad to move on to kindergarten but happy we have the memories

As a father, one of the things I appreciated most about the daycare was the caring and supportive environment it provided for my children. The staff showed genuine kindness, patience, and dedication, helping my kids feel safe, happy, and confident every day. Seeing them learn, grow, and build friendships in such a positive setting gave me great peace of mind and gratitude.

My son enjoyed making new friends, participating in hands-on learning activities, and engaging in creative play. He especially loved the supportive environment, interactive learning experiences, and opportunities to develop his social and communication skills. We appreciated the caring teachers and the positive atmosphere that helped him grow in confidence and independence.

Dedication of teachers and the team towards kids is extraordinary. Child first policy is followed at all times by everyone at TGS, Franklin.
