Primrose School of East Cobb at Paper Mill

We couldn't be happier with our experience at Primrose School. From day one, the teachers and staff have been warm, attentive, and genuinely invested in our child's growth. They know every child by name and take the time to share little moments from the day at pickup — it's clear they truly care. The curriculum has exceeded our expectations for a pre-K program. Our child comes home excited about what they learned, and we've seen real progress in early reading, counting, and social skills. The balance of structured learning and creative play is exactly what this age needs, and the Balanced Learning approach clearly works. The facility itself is bright, clean, and thoughtfully designed, and the security measures give us complete peace of mind — secure entry, careful check-in/check-out procedures, and staff who are always aware of who's coming and going. We wholeheartedly recommend Primrose to any family looking for a safe, nurturing place where their child will genuinely thrive.

Our son started attending Primrose at Papermill almost two years ago and we didn’t know what a truly stable and well-run daycare was like until he did. The communication is clear and regular, the facilities are impeccable, the teachers are engaged and loving, and, most of all, my son is thriving. We absolutely love it and will be here until he’s ready for kindergarten.

We absolutely adore Primrose at Paper Mill! We have been enrolled since 2022, and we've been consistently happy with the exceptional teachers, management, and education. My oldest is 4 and is already way ahead of the curve—she absolutely loves learning, thanks to the amazing teachers that she has had. The teachers and staff greet every student by name, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. We love the structure Primrose provides as well as the communication from the administration. We also appreciate the regular photos and updates we get throughout the day! We feel grateful to have found such a wonderful school for our children!

Cannot say enough great things about our experience at Primrose School of East Cobb at Paper Mill. The building and campus are clean and beautifully maintained, and the curriculum is well implemented. It is the people, though, who make this school so special. We will be forever grateful all three of our children have benefited from the loving care they received at this school.

We had two of our children spend a total of 6 years at this Primrose. Everything was wonderful the entire time until our youngest moved up to a new class. As a toddler he's prone to be obstinate and have big emotions, but very much within the realm of normal toddler behavior. His teacher rigidly applied inflexible rules and things turned south quickly. At their urging we brought in THREE occupational therapists to work with our son. After two weeks of working with him, Primrose kicked out our son for hitting another child -- despite our son coming home with bad bite marks for 2+ plus weeks a few months earlier. They had an utterly unrealistic time frame for expecting a toddler to make changes. Easily half of the notes we received about our child's behavior stemmed from scenarios where the teacher failed to effectively handle the situation or where the teacher failed to prevent basic, foreseeable problems from arising. After six years and without any warning whatsoever, despite our clear and persistent attempts to adopt the recommendations of the school, our child was kicked out for an instance no worse than what he repeatedly suffered a short time prior. And the teacher REPEATEDLY refused to implement any of the occupational therapists' recommendations. She had no interested at all in proactively helping our child. Primrose CAN BE a good school so long as your child fits within the narrow behavior patterns they're equipped and trained to deal with. This school is absolutely not inclusive or accommodating of a wide range of toddler behavior -- and the experience is dictated by the teacher's ability and interest in working with your child. If your child is an angel, then Primrose should work out. If your toddler behaves within a wider spectrum of toddler conduct, then Primrose is impatient, ineffective, disinterested, counterproductive, and uncaring. Many of the people we interacted with were absolutely wonderful. But just enough, including the teacher in question, were incompetent enough that it resulted in a shockingly disappointing outcome. I absolutely would not recommend this school to anyone.
