Primrose School of Ankeny at Prairie Trail

As a parent, I’ve been very happy with the school experience my child has had at this daycare. The teachers are caring, patient, and truly attentive to each child’s needs. My child feels safe, loved, and excited to go to school each day. I’ve seen great growth in their confidence, social skills, and love for learning, and I appreciate the open communication and supportive environment the staff provides.

Primrose has been an incredible experience. From the staff to the facilities to the activities provided, I could not imagine a more positive experience for my daughter, and the communication is easy to and efficient so that we're always kept up to date with what is going on and what to expect!

After an excessive search for a daycare provider, we finally found the perfect fit. Choosing Primrose School of Ankeny at Prairie Trail was hands-down the easiest (and best) decision we’ve made as parents. We immediately felt an overwhelming sense of warmth, care, and professionalism from all staff members, from the owners to the teachers and everyone in between. Although we were initially unsure about enrolling in a franchise, our hesitations were instantly put at ease by all of the staff at Primrose. The team knows our family by name, is attentive to our child’s specific personality, and guides his learning based on his individual strengths. The environment is inviting, nurturing, and so clearly constructed with children and families in mind while the curriculum is truly developmentally appropriate - thoughtfully designed to spark curiosity, engage in exploration, and support stages of growth. We say this with confidence as our youngest has been at Primrose since he was 16 weeks old and he is now entering Kindergarten; we only wish Primrose also had grades K-5. Primrose has been more than we ever hoped for and we’re incredibly thankful to have found them.

We’ve been so pleased with our experience at Primrose. The professionalism of the entire staff, the high-quality care and learning our children receive, and their attentiveness to our family’s needs have made us feel truly supported. It’s clear they prioritize both the well-being and development of each child, and they take the time to listen and understand what matters most to us as parents. We’re grateful to be part of such a thoughtful and nurturing community.

We moved our child to Primrose School from another daycare a year ago, and it has been one of the best decisions we’ve made. Over the past year, our child has been genuinely happy every day and has developed a real enthusiasm for learning and exploring. We’ve seen significant growth in her language, and social skills. The teachers and staff at Primrose are not only professional but also incredibly caring and attentive to each child’s needs. They keep us well-informed about her progress and are always open to communication, which gives us great peace of mind. The curriculum is thoughtfully designed—engaging, educational, and fun. Our child enjoys every moment at school and learns so much every day. We’re truly grateful to Primrose School for providing such a safe, warm, and positive environment for our child’s growth. We will miss our time at Primrose dearly. We highly recommend this school to other families!
