We have full trust in the Gardner teachers and staff. Our daughter is learning so much, but still has plenty of time for play. The teachers and administrators care for her tremendously and celebrate her growth milestones. Gardner set the bar high for what early childhood education should look like.

Love the teachers, open door policy and all the updates throughout the day. My child loves going to school everyday and lights up when she sees her teachers. They have really helped her blossom and challenge her to reach milestones in every area. I also love the parent community- the fact that we see the same families on a day to day basis is very telling- others love it as much as we do and are here for the long haul! At times, I am weary about coverage during pick up. The aides at that time are often people I don’t recognize and I don’t feel confident they really know who I am, or if i am authorized to pick up the child.

We've loved our experience with the Gardner School SO much. We could not have asked for more caring/thoughtful teachers and our son is thriving!

Caretakers are very loving and in good spirits. They are truely happy to be with babies and little kids.

We are SO happy with the Gardner school at union row! The teachers are fabulous. Always attentive and sweet with the children, and attentive to the parents. The classrooms are clean and tidy. I have recommended this school to several new parents!

We absolutely loved our time here. Our little one was so happy with Ms. Anna and Ms. Rigoberta, who are the absolute best. Everyone at the Gardner is warm and loving. We only left because we moved to Maryland. I wish we could stay!

We had a great experience at Gardner School with our infant. The teachers were all so caring and we could tell that our baby was happy and growing. The rooms are bright and sunny.

We feel that our daughter is cared for, and she seems to really enjoy going there every day we take her.

The caretakers are consistent and knowledgeable. They inspire confidence. I also love the fact that they cycle through different thematic activities to keep my toddler engaged. I like that I get regular updates in the app, so I always know how she is doing and don't have to worry about whether she is eating her lunch or dehydrated.

Our daughter has only been going to TGS for a few weeks, but we have loved seeing her happy photos and getting updates throughout the day. Everyone is so caring and professional.

The Gardner school, is just extraordinary. Even thought my daughter was there for a short period and who is not a native English speaker and she is only 2 years old but she learned allot. Not speaking about education only but her behavior and personality i am just stunned. Also the place is very safe, clean, transparent programs and activities. I felt like i was with my kid all the day via the app. The teachers, the principal and everyone around were more than nice and supportive also professional. That place is like heaven for kids and parents. We were stunned and more than happy and satisfied with everything. Thank you again for everything

We are new to the Gardner School and are impressed with the amount of activities being provided. We are also pleasantly surprised with the school’s effort to get parents involved! The teachers and leadership genuinely care for our child and care for us! They are very responsive too! The only thing I wish we had more were pictures and videos of the our child’s day! The activities seem so much fun and enticing that we’d love to see how our child is enjoying them. So far, the Gardner school in DC has been outstanding and we are very grateful!

My sons absolutely love TGS. The teachers are loving and compassionate, the location is fantastic. My boys get so excited when they see their school even if we’re just walking by.
