My daughter started daycare around 4 months of age. It was a hard transition but the Gardner school was great. The teachers made the transition easy and have really helped with her development. We are very grateful!
The teachers and staff at The Gardner School are truly exceptional! Our 14-month-old daughter lights up with joy every time she sees her favorite teachers, which says so much about the care and connection they provide. The school itself is always so clean, well-organized, and absolutely adorable—it creates such a warm, welcoming environment. I’m also incredibly grateful for the open and consistent communication throughout the day, which gives us so much peace of mind.
We have sent our child to two other schools before sending them to The Gardner School. No school compares to The Gardner School. The staff is the absolute best, they care for your children as if they were their own.
This place is simply the best!! The teachers are wonderful and caring. The administrators are amazing and go above and beyond. The school is clean, communication is excellent, and the learning experience is wonderful. I always know what my children are doing and never worry when they are at TGS. Highly recommend!!!
We're new and the teachers have already gone the extra mile to make our child feel comfortable and at ease. They've been very communicative and wonderful to our little one while we're away during the day!
I appreciate how the staff always takes the time to make me feel safe and heard, and the way they showcase true care and concern for my little dude. I am very appreciative of Bri and Zoey and how they exude warmth and a strong flow in the classroom.
We have been through four different schools and I think Gardner is my favorite! This particular facility is clean, organized, clear communication methods, amazing & CARING teachers.
The teachers and leadership team have been an extension of our family since 2019 when we started our oldest as an infant. We love the school community and have had an incredible experience in every classroom for both of our daughters. Our oldest is halfway through Kindergarten and state testing and quarterly report cards have ensured that we made the right choice when we chose TGS Naperville as the foundation for our children's’ education. Thank you for keep our babies healthy, happy, and safe!
The education my child is receiving is so valuable. His development has soared through the Gardener program. The staff is wonderful to work with and are so kind and genuine to all the kids. All the programs offered provides a variety of education opportunities.
We are incredibly happy with the care our child receives at The Gardner School. Everyone is consistently warm, attentive, and genuinely invested in our child's development, creating a safe and warm environment where they learn and have fun.
A Wonderful Experience at The Gardner School!
As a mom, moving from Colorado to Illinois was a big transition for our family, especially for our little one starting pre-K. We were looking for a school that would not only provide an excellent education but also a warm and welcoming environment. The Gardner School has exceeded our expectations in every way!
From the very first day, the staff and teachers made our child feel at home. The transition was seamless, thanks to their nurturing approach and structured curriculum. The classrooms are bright, engaging, and filled with hands-on learning opportunities that keep our child excited to go to school every morning.
One of the things we love most is the balance between academics and play. The teachers do a fantastic job of incorporating fun activities with learning, helping our child grow both socially and academically. The communication from the school is also outstanding—daily updates and photos give us a glimpse into our child’s day, which brings so much peace of mind.
We’ve seen such incredible growth in our child’s confidence, curiosity, and social skills since joining The Gardner School. If you're a parent looking for a high-quality pre-K program in the Naperville area, I highly recommend this school. It’s been a fantastic experience for our family!
Ryleigh and Danni are so great with my girl!!! Can’t praise them enough. The director and assistant directors are also very sweet and genuine. Glad i found a safe space for my baby.
My daughter has been attending The gardner school for almost 2 years. The loving and safe environment has allowed my daughter to flourish not only academically but socially as well !! All the teachers are so caring . We have never felt more confident in our decision to enroll our daughter at The Gardner School.
We love the administration and program director Kaitlyn Rose. The teachers are great. After about a year of being there, there was some turnover but now it seems to have stabilized. Overall I think the school also has a great curriculum with preparedness for Kindergarten and beyond. I wish there was more opportunity for input and feedback from the parents, even if its just to be heard, like a town hall type zoom or event. It would be nice to hear more from the teachers than just review time.
My child started here a year ago when they were about 8 months old. I absolutely love this school and the teachers everyone is so wonderful and communication is really fast. I have really seen how my child’s attitude and education has developed in a year of being here. It’s very impressive and they love going here. Thank you!!!
