Organized, teachers at our location are amazing. good with communication. ultimately teachers is what makes a school and they have all seemed to have great training
We had a great experience with The Gardner School of Warrenville. The teachers were fantastic and, of course, great with the kids. Would fully recommend for other families.
The teachers. They were incredible, always. Miss Stephanie, Miss Lindsay, Miss Ebony, Miss Kimiko, Miss Meghan, Miss Clarissa, Miss Heather, Miss Jennifer, Miss Melissa, Mr Adam. All of these teachers made our kids better and made our lives better.
The first four teachers in that list had both of our kids and made an immeasurable impact on our family. We couldn't be more thankful.

Our 3-year old has absolutely loved his time at Gardner and is looking forward to returning for next year. Miss Alex and Miss Sofia have taken such good care of him. He sometimes struggles a bit with the transition in the morning, but teachers have encouraged him to go to his "sunny spot" and spend some time there until he is ready to join the group. This individualized attention and patience has made all the difference. They have also encouraged him to try new foods, even though he is a picky eater. He never felt pressured to eat something he doesn't like but was encouraged to at least try new food, which we have appreciated.
Brynn and Brittany are very kind and professional. The infant room teachers in fascination B (shoutout Miss Heather and Miss Laura) are warm, educated, and great with communication. We are obsessed with them! It's hard leaving your baby, but Gardner School of Warrenville staff helped make it an easy transition. As a parent, you want your baby to feel they are at a home away from home, and that's what it feels like as the Gardner School of Warrenville!
We've had the best experience at Gardner for all 3 of my kiddos - from 2's classroom all the way to summer camp! Incredible administrators and teachers with almost no turnover in the 2 years we've been there. Highly recommend!
Both of my children love the Gardner School. They previously attended a different daycare and while they did OK there, most mornings they didn't want to go to daycare. I thought that was just how it would be until we switched to the Gardner School. My daughter who had been shy and reserved at her previous daycare and struggled to make friends really came out of her shell. She quickly made friends and integrated into the class community. She was excited to go to school every day. Now that she is in Kindergarten, she loves to visit her former teachers. My son similarly adjusted quickly to his new classroom and teachers. He talks about his friends and teachers non-stop. While there are days he would prefer to stay home and play, he immediately cheers up when we get to school. I couldn't ask for a more nurturing, friendly environment.
The Gardner School of Warrenville is filled with teachers who are kind, attentive, and fun. My kids feel comfortable and safe everyday and its a great balance of structured learning and play. The leaders who run the school are wonderful people. They are strong communicators, accommodating, and truly go above and beyond to provide a strong experience for you and your kids.
We’ve had such a positive experience at The Gardner School of Warrenville. I was blown away from the attention to detail, care and thoughtfulness Brittany the director showed during the tour. It really set this school apart from others and was an easy yes for us. From day one, the staff has been incredibly accommodating and understanding of our son's unique needs. They never rushed him or expected him to fit into a mold - they truly met him exactly where he was, which meant everything to us as parents.
The school is very organized, and their communication has always been clear, consistent, and supportive. You can feel how intentional they are with every part of the day.
The curriculum is excellent - rich, engaging, and thoughtfully structured with activities that actually teach, stimulate, and challenge children in the best way. The classrooms are set up beautifully, with purposeful play woven into every part of the learning experience.
Most importantly, the teachers are exceptional. Ms. Yadira, Ms. Alondra and Ms. Sofia were warm, patient, and genuine. I've seen them hold and comfort my son multiple times when he was having a rough time. They saw his strengths and created an environment where he could grow at his own pace. We felt understood and supported every step of the way.
We are so grateful for our time here. The Gardner School of Warrenville will absolutely be our first choice.
What I love most about our school experience is the caring and dedicated teachers. They’re not only highly qualified but also truly invested in each child’s growth and happiness. The curriculum is wonderful—it challenges my children while also giving them the freedom to be creative, explore their interests, and express themselves in meaningful ways. It’s such a joy to see them excited to learn every day.
