The Gardner School of Dedham

I am so happy to bring my son at The Gardner School of Dedham. I felt so welcomed from the first day I called the center and spoke to Anxhela she was very professional and welcoming. She provided me all the Information I needed right away, scheduled same day in person meeting to see the school. The school is so clean, beautiful indoor and outdoor. The kinds have school uniforms which I love it. The teachers are amazing ,professionals Regina and Ola are doing an amazing job with pre-K kids. I see my son is so excited to go to school, he has learned so much ( they do math, read stories, science lab) Best place to send your kids!!

We’ve had such a wonderful experience with this daycare, and I can confidently give it a 5-star review. My 3 year old is not only happy going each day, but he is truly thriving. He’s already being introduced to early writing skills and is excelling far beyond what I expected at this age. It’s clear there’s a thoughtful, structured curriculum in place that balances learning with play in a way that keeps him engaged and excited. The facility is always clean, organized, and well cared for, which gives me peace of mind as a parent. Even more important to me, it feels genuinely safe. My son trusts his teachers, talks about them at home, and looks forward to seeing them every day. That kind of bond is something you can’t fake. Teacher retention is also excellent, which says a lot about the environment the staff work in and the consistency the children benefit from. The caregivers are attentive, warm, and clearly invested in each child’s development. Communication with parents is strong and reliable. I always feel informed about my child’s progress, activities, and any updates throughout the day. They also do a great job of keeping families involved and connected to what’s happening in the classroom. Overall, this daycare goes beyond basic childcare. They focus on early education, emotional security, and social development in a way that feels intentional and well executed. I highly recommend them to any parent looking for a place where their child will be cared for, supported, and encouraged to grow.

My son and I have had such a wonderful experience at this daycare. There are many great aspects to the layout and decor of the space, as well as the safety features implemented, activities, curriculum, and, most importantly, the kind staff! We are grateful and truly love the Gardner School. The teachers and staff are so friendly, helpful, and take the care and safety of the children at their heart center. You can truly see it each day. Thank you TGS!

We are so happy to have found Gardner! As first time parents, we were super nervous and hesitant about any daycare at all, so after looking at many of them, we almost just stopped trying. Thankfully, we went and looked at a brand new school and ended up signing up. We have been there since the beginning and could not be more thankful as we hit that one year mark. Miss Barbara in the beginning taking care of our infant and making us feel so comfortable, all of the other teachers who have been wonderful and pleasant to see daily, and Miss Anxhela who was always helping with our child (and the others) and keeping us posted on what is going on and sharing experiences as a parent. Could not recommend them more!

We’ve been so happy with our experience at TGS Dedham. Our daughter started in the infant room in January at 7 months old, and we’ve already seen so much growth. The first few days were tough (mostly just for mom!), but now we wouldn’t change a thing. Her teachers, Ms. Milena and Ms. Adiza are incredible - so warm, caring, and attentive. I really appreciate the real-time updates and many photos (and videos!) through the Brightwheel app - it helps me feel connected to her day and know what she’s been up to. We’ve also noticed big changes in her motor and social skills which speaks to the thoughtful curriculum and activities that take place during the week. Sending our daughter here has been one of the best decisions –and it seems like she agrees! She lights up when we arrive and she sees her teachers, which makes drop off so much easier. When we first toured, we honestly wondered if it was too good to be true (the space is beautiful + brand new), but it’s not! This review isn’t part of any promotion/incentive - just coming from a FTM who found the daycare search overwhelming and feels so lucky to have found TGS.
