We cannot say enough positive things about TGS Arlington! The administration is great but what is truly extraordinary is the teachers. The team they have built are awesome.

Arlington, VA
Our experience at The Gardner School of Arlington has been truly precious and unforgettable. Thanks to the teachers’ warm, kind, and welcoming atmosphere, we were always able to leave our child with complete peace of mind. The center operates on a well structured daily schedule and provides a wide range of engaging activities, which greatly supported our child’s sensory and developmental growth. Even though we do not speak English at home, our daughter who is not yet two years old has made remarkable progress in her language skills. It is very sad that we had to leave so suddenly. Whether in Korea or someday again in the United States, The Gardners will remain our benchmark when choosing any future childcare or educational program for our child. Thank you sincerely for taking such wonderful care of our daughter. In particular, we are deeply grateful to Ms. Kashanda, Ms. Candace, and Ms. Charlese. And also deeply thankful to the director Ms.Angie and Ms. Caitlin for their flexibility and thoughtful understanding of our situation.

The staff is excellent and my son loves the school and his friends. Everyday he looks forward to going to TGS. He wakes up and says “I want to go to friends!” I love the care they give here.

Annandale, VA
Qualified and dedicated staff, extremely clean facilities with a large variety of age apprioriate activities and materials. Nice structure to the day so the kids know what to expect. Nice sense of community, all the children seem to know each other and teachers from other classes know the kids names. Having lunch and snacks provided is a huge plus! The cooking and art classes this summer were nice options but we expected a bit more for the cost. More outdoor time would be nice - even walks around the block.

The teachers love the kids so much and the facility is beautiful. My daughter is thriving and I am very comfortable leaving her there while at work. They also offer great opportunities for the kids and the parents.

We’ve had such a wonderful experience with the Gardner Arlington! From the very first day, the staff has been incredibly warm and welcoming—not just to me, but more importantly, to my son. Every teacher and caregiver knows him by name, which made such a big difference as he adjusted to this new environment. Starting daycare can be a tough transition, but their nurturing approach gave us so much peace of mind. They were patient, kind, and truly attentive to his needs. You can tell they genuinely care about the kids, and that made all the difference for us. We’re so grateful to have found a place where our child feels safe, seen, and loved. Highly recommend!
