very clean and teachers are very good. my son has learned a lot since joining the Gardner school

East Walpole, MA
We love the teachers, the programming, the facilities, and the directors. The staff are very well trained and have great control of the classrooms. Really enjoy the seasonal themes and opportunities to get parents engaged in classrooms

Very nice facility. Friendly and attentive staff. Nice activities for kids and thorough daily reporting to parents.

New school, kids are not in one room all day, different activities. More diversity than where I live which is great for my kids. Pricing is appropriate for what TGS is.

Norwood, MA
Great communication, my child loves going, many activities keep him stimulated throughout the day, I feel like his teachers truly care about him

We have been really happy with the staff and their interactions with our children. At our last daycare the staff was disengaged and often on their phones or simply out of the room. The director takes the job seriously and is dedicated. The building is well lit, with lots of natural light and it’s clean.

Leadership and teachers are very loving, and attentive to the children. Both of my kids show progress with their milestones/development based on the curriculum. Facility is clean and beautiful!

We absolutely love The Gardner School for our two sons. From day one, it’s been such a happy, welcoming environment where our kids truly feel known and cared for. They’re learning so much more than just academics. There is a real emphasis on social-emotional learning, confidence, and kindness, which means so much to us as parents. The communication is top-notch. We love the frequent updates, photos, and insights into their days, which makes us feel very connected and reassured. We’re incredibly grateful for the teachers and staff and couldn’t recommend The Gardner School more highly to families looking for a nurturing, high-quality early education experience.

Leadership, staff and facility are the best

The teachers and staff have been so welcoming and kind. They made my daughter's transition to a new school so smooth and easy. She loves the school and is always telling me how happy she is there.

We love everything about TGS. So happy we are here.

Recently switched into Gardner school at Dedham and it's been life changing for our little one. We no longer see tears or her fussing about daycare in the morning. No cry when she sees the building. And once she even ran away from us to join circle time. Now that she's at the age where she spends more time at day care than at home, I can't think about a better place for her to be. We are very thankful for the teachers.

Good communication and teachers are wonderful

I love everything about Gardner Dedham! Our toddlers teachers are so kind and caring, and the directors put so much thought into creating a community - from the newsletters to sending us YouTube links to the songs that the kids learned that day so we can sing them at home. It is truly a wonderful place.

The Gardner school has been incredible for my toddler. He's so happy and everyone has been so kind and helpful to make his transition to the new daycare go smoothly. Everyone is very communicative and I feel as though my toddler has a strong relationship with all the teachers / administration.

Beautiful facilities. Creative learning in a calm environment. My daughter has been here less than a month and I have already noticed a change in her behavior for the better and that she is learning more. She is so engaged and happy!

We love the staff at The Gardner School! The truly love and care about our children and communicate about our children's needs. The teachers are great about giving feedback on where our kids are excelling and where they need to improve, and I feel like I'm always "in the know." I also have the comfort of knowing that if I can't be there during the day, my kids are loved and well-cared for by teachers and staff who love them. It is a special place.
