I love the consistency of the schedule, the teacher's dedication to my children each and every day, and the genuine happiness that this school embodies. I feel grateful that my children are cared for here. Thank you to each teacher that we've gotten to know over the years.

The teachers are amazing! We love everything they are doing with our kiddo and it's clear she's learning quickly from them, and that she's well taken care of and loved. We also love the updates throughout the day! Thank you for everything you do!

We've loved the 4+ years at Primrose in Merriam Park, Saint Paul. The staff are diligent and responsive. And the teachers are loving, engaging, and in tune with our kiddo's developments. Would recommend to anyone who needs a nurturing environment for their little ones.

Everything about it is great - from the teachers and curriculum to the leadership team and the owners. It has been a great school for both of our children. Our youngest still attends and our oldest was well prepared for kindergarten. It's a great environment for kids!

All of the staff at Primrose are outstanding. They truly care about what they do and it shows. I could not be happier with our experience.

Seems like teacher retention has gotten better lately. There is a clear gap in talent among teachers -- Ms Olivia, Ms Emma, Ms Alicia are all incredible and really talented childcare providers. There are others who may be missing some of the fundamental skills needed to manage and lead a classroom effectively.

We feel that the teachers at Primrose really know and care about our son. We are happy with the curriculum, schedule, outside time, and meals at Primrose.

The teachers and staff are absolutely excellent. Given the amount of turnover in daycare providers these days, as well as generally being able to find quality daycare, it has been a great experience over the last three years to have a place we can trust to drop off our daughter (from infancy to now being a toddler). Not only that, but the educational programming is wonderful. Our daughter comes home every night happy as a clam and knowing more than she did when we dropped her off. Truly can’t say enough good things about Primrose of Merriam Park.

Staff have been very attentive to our children's differing needs. We always know they have their best interests at heart, even when there have been behavior issues. The overall culture of the school sets a high bar for quality of care and the staff and management consistently go above and beyond.

We love the teachers more than anything else. They're genuinely excited to see our daughter every day, and knowing that makes it easier for us to leave her for work.

We love our Primrose! Our owners and so hands on, leadership/management has been consistent and part of the school for years. The teachers are like extended family and we wouldn’t be able to stay afloat in our careers without this wonderful organization!

Primrose Merriam Park is such a wonderful place! Teachers and administrators are amazing and we will miss the school when we graduate!

We had been at two other childcare facilities before Primrose, and we could immediately tell that Primrose is on a completely different level from the moment we started. They have a well established curriculum and a strong emphasis on education which we love. Our kids have learned by playing, experimenting, singing, and getting their hands dirty. All of the staff we have met have been extremely friendly and caring. Would 100% recommend and so glad we made the decision to switch to Primrose!

We love our experience at Primrose, it feels like a second home for our kids. The teachers are so engaging, and provide stimulating and consistent days for their classroom. They have so many visiting activities (science guy, costume Kim, fall back to school celebration, holiday parties, parents night out). The primrose community is an integral part of our family’s success.

We love Primrose! Our son is in Pre-K B, and we started at Primrose in Infant A when he was 19 weeks old. We've been fortunate to get a series of wonderful teachers who truly care and invest in the students. Our son is thriving at Primrose.
