My child's teachers are so patient with him, and he is so proud of the things he learns at school. The whole team at Oak Brook is so friendly and welcoming.

We love The Gardner School! We moved from the city where our girls (ages 3 & 4) were in Montessori, and we’ve seen such a drastic change in them and their learning! The teachers are all wonderful, the hours are great and they even love wearing their uniforms. Love TGS!

Our baby girl has been thriving ever since starting. She comes home every day pointing out different colors, counting, and reciting alphabets. We are amazed every day watching her grow and I know it’s because of the Gardner school. The highlight of our day is seeing photos of her and she’s having so much fun you could tell she enjoys being there which makes us feel we made a great decision in enrolling her.

What we like most about our daughter’s experience at The Gardner School is the way she is truly seen, supported, and encouraged every single day. Her teachers create an environment that feels warm and structured, where she can learn, explore, and grow with confidence. We love how intentional the curriculum is, how thoughtfully the staff communicates with us, and how genuinely they care for her. It has been a place where she is not only learning, but thriving.

That they value education not just playtime. I love the uniforms and teaching my 4 yr old how to write already!

The tenures of the teachers lends itself well to great environments that our son looks forward to being at each day. The experience has been exponentially better than previous area daycares.

Amazing staff from the management to the teachers to all the other staff we have met. Our son was new to the school and to the area and they have only made his transition that much easier

We have had such a fantastic experience at The Gardner School. From day one, Mila has felt so loved and supported, and as her family, we feel the same. The teachers and staff go above and beyond to create a nurturing, welcoming environment that makes every day special. We are so grateful for the care, communication, and joy they bring to Mila’s life.

It seems to be very organized, I like the security features when you enter the building, my son seems to genuinely enjoy his time there and is always happy at pick up (drop off can be a bit challenging but that's normal :))
