  My daughter is 16 months. She started school at 9 months. She loves engaging with the teachers and staff. It is clear the staff cares alot of the students.

  I recently went for a walkthrough at a daycare for my 9-month-old baby. At first, the place seemed nice and the teachers were friendly. However, once we entered the infant room, I became very concerned. There was a small baby lying on the floor, screaming at the top of her lungs. She was so young she couldn’t even roll over. One teacher was busy nursing, and the other was changing another child’s diaper. This baby cried non-stop for at least 10 minutes, and no one attended to her until I pointed it out. I saw one of the teachers walk right past the crying baby without even looking at her. It was heartbreaking to watch. Another concern I had was hygiene. The teachers were wearing their shoes in the infant room — the same shoes they used to walk into the bathroom or even outdoor. Then they walked across the mats where babies crawl, lick, and put toys in their mouths. When I asked if teachers change into indoor shoes before entering the classroom, they said no. We ultimately decided not to choose this daycare. If this is how they act when parents are visiting, I can only imagine what happens when no one is watching. While this may be acceptable to some, it’s not something I’m comfortable with for my child.

  We love everyone at Primrose! ❤️ our daughter has lots of fun each day and is always in good hands here. We toured a couple different options in the area and so happy we chose Primrose!

  My husband and I are first time parents and send our daughter to Primrose School when she was 11 weeks. To say I was nervous is an understatement. The moment I met Mrs. Lambert I felt so at ease. All of Primrose's teachers are loving, nurturing, educated, and truly care about the children. I feel like my daughter is in the best care possible when she is at Primrose. Each day she is so enriched and they do activities that I would never think to do at home. My daughter is always smiling and excited when I drop her off, and is happy when I pick her up.

  I have two little ones at Primrose School, one currently in the infant classroom and another who has progressed from the infant room to Preschool Pathways. Our experience across every classroom has been outstanding, marked by genuine kindness, a deep commitment to learning and development, and countless opportunities for children to build essential social skills. The staff's dedication is clear in everything they do, and the administrators are exceptional—always ready to collaborate and offer consistent support for both milestones and challenges. I truly can’t say enough great things about Primrose School!

  I cannot recommend Primrose School in Algonquin highly enough! My husband and I interviewed several daycares in the area while I was still pregnant and the second we stepped into this facility I immediately felt at ease. The whole staff is wonderful to work with! They eased my worries the first day my son was with them at 12 weeks old, and they’ve been there to answer every question/concern we’ve had since then. All of the teachers that have worked with my son have been nothing short of amazing. It’s clear that my son is genuinely cared for by everyone he interacts with at the school and I can go about my day knowing I don’t need to worry about him while he’s there. The facility is clean, safe, and full of toys, etc. that helps the children learn and grow. The activities they do with the children are all the same. The app/other communications are easy to use and keep us up to date on everything we need to know. I just wish our circumstances weren’t taking us away from this beautiful daycare and all of the people that have cared for my son so well.
