We love the teachers and the care our daughter is receiving. They are so intentional with her every day, making her feel welcome, and we know she loves being there, which makes our days much easier.

Amazing staff and great curriculum!

I am in peace when I leave my baby there.

The entire staff is hands on in the care of our child and she loves all of them. We feel that she is very well cared for and safe while she is there. She is also learning so much but still having fun at the same time.

Everyone says hello to my son by name, from the front desk to teachers of other classrooms to administrators. This makes me feel like he's seen, known, and cared for.

We love the structure. We feel like, even at a very very young age, learning is a priority. We feel like it is a safe and loving campus as well. We are very grateful for The Gardener School and its amazing staff.

We started at the Gardner School just a couple of short months ago. Our 19 month old loves it!!! He is always so excited to go to “scoo” in the morning. It warms my heart knowing he is happy and thriving during the day. I would absolutely recommend the school to a friend or family member.

They take great care in hiring really good teachers. They genuinely care about the kids.

I love getting the updates on the things they're learning throughout the day so we can practice those at home too and ask our daughter about the things she's learning to feel more involved.

The Gardner staff truly cares about the children in their building. Our daughter’s teachers give us updates on her milestones, what she did that day, and all of the in between every day. Her teachers know specific details about each kid in the class (the other day she rattled off every students’ birthday off the top of her head- go Ms. Khayla!) and truly go the extra mile to make sure they help her have her best day. She is so happy to go to school and be passed to her teachers in the morning.

I think my daughter in preK has an academic experience ! I appreciate the focus on learning skills and I can see the growth in my girls in reading counting and letters and numbers!

After a bad experience at another provider, we were nervous leaving our 6 month baby at another daycare. That baby is now 4 years old and thriving. We are so thankful to have found Gardner when we did. She has made great friends and learned far more than we expected through the curriculum. We feel she is very prepared for kindergarten academically, behaviorally, and emotionally, and a Gardner School is a big part of that!

We started in August and our expectations have been far exceeded. Our son loves his class and teachers. He has already learned so much, it’s truly impressive. We also value the communication via the Brightwheel app along with notes at pickup from his teachers. 10/10 would recommend!

The facility is clean, bright, and safe. Most importantly though are the smart, loving teachers and staff who treat our kids amazing and keep us updated throughout the day about the fun and activities they are doing. They pick up on small cues from the kids, engaging them when they are shy, holding them a little longer when they aren’t feeling 100%, and planning craft ideas to develop their creativity. We have our 2nd kid in Gardner now and recommend it to everyone we know with kids.

Staff is very attentive! My 3yo loves his teacher and has gained so many social skills in such a short time. Admin members are very sweets and communicative and fast to respond to any questions or concerns.

I love how happy my girl is to go to school everyday and how happy the teachers and staff are to see her! I appreciate their realtime updates all day every day so my mind is at ease knowing that she is eating, drinking, pottying, napping, playing, and learning.

Gray has already started to show signs of learning so much since starting Gardner, from talking to potty training. We love it TGS!

Nashville, TN
We switched to Gardner from another prominent national daycare with several Nashville locations. Night we've day difference. The old one was more expensive, disorganized, and much more of a free-for-all daycare. Gardner is very structured which we love and much more focused an a learning curriculum than just free play. They cook all their own food in-house which our last place did not also. 10/10 would recommend.

Taking care of children is an extremely difficult and delicate thing. The staff at the Gardner school makes it look easy, even though we know it's very hard. I love that the leadership is transparent. I love that they are child-first, whether it be the daily grind of taking care of them or planning each and every event that is so much fun to attend. I'm sure there are other day care centers that are just as good. But for me? I pick Gardner 100/100.
