I am writing this review to share my family's experience so other parents can make informed…read moredecisions. My daughter attended Primrose until December 2025. We ultimately withdrew her after ongoing concerns about communication, follow-through, and basic care. The first time I was told that my daughter was experiencing "severe, daily issues" in her classroom was on 11/13/25, when the owner, Susan Burrow, stated that she was overwhelmed at school and unable to keep up with peers. This was surprising, as her teachers had consistently reported that she was having good days with only occasional incidents. The following day (11/14/25), I met with the Assistant Director, Blanne Burrow, to discuss simple, low-effort strategies that could help support my daughter when she became overstimulated. He took notes, and I sent a follow-up email summarizing our discussion. Later that afternoon, I received a call from the owner stating that none of the accommodations worked, despite it being only a few hours since our initial conversation. She also requested an "updated" diagnosis for my daughter's autism. I had to explain to a childcare provider that autism is a lifelong neurodevelopmental disability and that the diagnostic criteria do not expire. On 11/21/25, I followed up with my daughter's lead teacher to ask whether the suggested accommodations had been shared with her. She could only recall one item, which made it clear the list had not been communicated or implemented in any real way, despite assurances that these strategies had already been attempted. There were also two separate occasions when I discovered that my daughter had not been changed for an extended period, resulting in soaked clothing and irritation: * 11/26/24: I noticed at home that she was still wearing the pull-up I had put on her that morning. It was fully saturated, her pants were wet, and she had had a bowel movement that caused irritation. I reported this immediately to the director and her teachers. * 10/1/25: I noticed the same situation when picking her up--wet pants, soaked pull-up, and a bowel movement. I brought her back inside to be cleaned and informed her teachers and the front desk, and notified the director the next day. These were not isolated communication issues. They became a pattern of concerns regarding transparency, follow-through, and basic care expectations. After weeks of trying to collaborate and advocate, we made the difficult decision to withdraw. After speaking with several staff members, I learned that my experience was not an isolated case. I was told that Primrose has pressured other families to withdraw children who fall outside what the school views as 'the norm.' I also learned that staff are not given any training on how to work with children who have special needs, despite repeated requests from teachers for that support. Every child deserves to feel supported, safe, and cared for at school. Unfortunately, that was not our experience here.

Our daughter started at Primrose when she was 11 months and has absolutely thrived there. She's now…read more2.5 years old and we have loved every class we've been in. She's has moved up 3 times as they move up every few months to accommodate the ever changing developmental stages. We love the staff and the teachers and feel 100% safe with our daughter being there. Would recommend to anyone and although it's quite expensive, you get what you pay for. It is worth every penny.

Great Daycare.. Very nice and clean…read more The staff was nice and you didn't have to make an appointment to tour. They even have a summer camp for my school age children in the summer. They take them on field trips!

Mrs Amy- G.Y.M. Kids after school care…read more Mrs. Amy has been a tremendous blessing to myself and my child this past school year. My four year old started Kindergarten Readiness in an Elementary school. That means his schedule was the same as a third graders and a huge transition to say the least. At first he wouldn't talk, play, or eat. Lunches and snacks came home untouched. He would cry when I would come to get him and not let go even after we arrived home. Add on top of all of that, he has a special diet. He is allergic to many types of food and the ones he is not allergic to are highly limited (like sugar). The school and staff work with me on his diet as well as our religion. We do not celebrate "mainstream holidays". An example would be Santa or the Easter Bunny. Mrs. Amy and the staff have gone out of their way to make sure my son is included in activities without compromising our religious beliefs. When I pick up my child now, he asks why did I come so early. He brings home art and when I sneak in the room to watch him, he is laughing and playing. He is eating better and asks for snacks. He has grown sooooo much and I know he would not have blossomed if it wasn't for a caring and nurturing teacher like Mrs. Amy. Mrs. Amy has also helped me transition. She updates me on my son and answers my "is he normal" questions. She lets me know when he is acting out and she doesn't sugar coat it.This, above all, I appreciate. I am a single SINGLE mom. I am all that my son has. She corrects him in love and lets me know what she said as well as exactly what he did to deserve correction. From a single mom's point of view....Hallelujah,I am not the only one trying to mold my son to become a responsible, respectful man; Mrs. Amy is helping AND guiding me!!! She is always kind, loving, and she has the natural gift of genuine childcare. She notices when my child is absent, She notices when something is wrong, and she cares enough to take a moment to talk to me. This is the type of teacher a parent longs for.

Unfortunately, we did not have a positive experience at the daycare. The owner was unprofessional…read moreand belligerent! She talks over you and wants to blame a two year old for a staff member falling in the class room. I won't go into all the details, but believe you me it has been reported and it will be investigated. As a someone in healthcare it is out of scope for someone that is NOT in the medical field to diagnosis and/or give medical advise if they are not the child's PCP or a professional in that field to diagnosis. I would highly recommend asking before you enroll your child what qualifications are needed for the teachers and what kind of training are they required to complete for employment. There were inconsistancies in what the teacher reported and what the owner told us. She was angry due to the incident that happened in the class room which require a work comp claim. That information should not have been disclosed to the parents. It is a requirement for employers to carry workcomp insurance for accidents that may occur. I really hope and pray that the staff get more training on how to appropriately care for children who may require more time to adjust to daycare or needed more guidance. I would recommend the owner also read up on and gain more knowledge about the ADA (American with Disability Act) and get familiar with it. Labeling a child as behavorial and/or accusing parents of a lack of parenting skills is offensive and unnecessary. I hope this never happens to anyone else. Of note , the parents are very involved in the child's life and took all the appropriate steps including parent meetings, interventional solutions at home, reinforcements, and referrals to speech therapy to eval the child's needs. This was explained to the daycare and they were aware of this. This is our experience which was not a good one. Both children were pulled from this facility due to the actions of the owner and the hostile actions she displayed. The male owner, however appeared to be more compassionate and did listen to our concerns and remained calm. That is why they get a 1 star.

Aunty K's has been my children's first day care experience and I am so grateful that it is. The…read morecare that my kiddos receive daily is absolutely incredible. I would recommend Aunty K's 100 times over. It was difficult to send my children to be in someone else's care but they made it easy and my children are thriving! The best decision my husband and I could have made. The staff is so kind and caring and the owners are a blessing. We prayed for a place that would care for our kiddos and that prayer was answered with Aunty K's

We later returned our child when Brook and Josh, the new owners, took over the school and have been more than satisfied with the level of attentiveness, personal relationship, and overall care our child has received. After the birth of our first child we placed her in the then named "Pumpkin Patch" and were horrified after a few short weeks with the number and severity of diaper rash incidents our infant was inflicted with. After a short stint with a private in home sitter we returned to the newly renovated and revamped "Murfreesboro Day School", and we have been more than pleased with the new owners. Josh and Brooke greet us every afternoon when we come to pick up our child. If our child is sick, they ask us when we return if there is anything they can do and inquire with an attitude of concern how our child is doing, and not simply out of fear of bringing a sickness into their business. I truly feel the Murfreesboro Day School and its owners have become more than just a place our child goes while my wife and I are at work. Our child looks forward to going to "skooool" every morning and is always saying bye and giving "squeezes" to Josh and Brooke when we leave. Our child has learned sign language and at 18 months it is a joy to communicate with her in ways we never imagined were possible. Thank you so much Brooke and Josh and all the wonderful staff at the Murfreesboro Day School.

It's just like taking my girl to a family member's house. I can tell she is comfortable and loves it and she enjoys the numerous activities and learning daily. I highly recommend - everyone involved is very personable, friendly, & down to earth!

Let me start by stating, I usually don't leave reviews unless it is absolutely necessary good or…read morebad. PARENTS NEW & OLD READ TO THE END! Event 12/5/22: I contacted the number provided because I seen good star ratings and small environment and another plus for me some to be frank is that I saw the care giver/worker was of melanin ethnicity. The lady answered with a very rude and rushing disposition "Hello" no mention of said business. I went forward to ask was this the "Playhouse Drop in"? Lady: "How can I help you!" I repeated my question and she said rudely and loudly "How can I help you!" At this point, The decision was made for me. My response: Oh, okay never mind." And quickly she disconnects the line without a word! NEVER would I take my daughter here, if she speaks to some one like this as an adult inquiring about the business she provides without even knowing the individual there is no telling what and how she treats children that can't speak for themselves! Immediately I felt unsafe! I was really excited to begin with but I am SO EXTREMELY grateful God shows up when need be. MESSAGE: To all but most importantly to my Black own business owners who serve our community! If you need help or add'l assistance, it is important that assist your mental health while delegating purposefully! especially if you are serving our most precious of this world. To the owner, we all have bad days but that is unacceptable when dealing with children especially others children, and I am specifically embarrassed by your actions today! Choose to not put more on your own plate than you can handle. That is very important when you are serving. I hope you can use this message as a teaching tools for personal development and emotional intelligence because the real you will show up even when you don't want it to! May your day go better

EVICTED A 5 YEAR OLD OVER A FUN T-SHIRT FROM DAYCARE!!! These parents had an older child attending this daycare, and their youngest for YEARS!!! And now the owners are "offended" over a harmless fun T-Shirt?! I knew our society had become weak and a cancel culture, but to punish a FIVE YEAR OLD?!!!! Absolutely absurd! The owners are clearly pushing their personal agendas on to young children and their families now! I am so glad that my student's family have a backbone and have chosen not to retaliate legally, however, I will never allow my family to attend this daycare or preschool because I will not support children being bullied by "Spineless, Agenda Pushing, Daycare Owners" as these owners have done to one of my students! Absolutely shameful!!!! I am including a photo in my review of the "offensive T shirt" that was worn that the 5 year old was evicted from this daycare for, that was worn for his PreK Graduation UNDERNEATH HIS GRADUATION GOWN!!! STOP PUSHING YOUR PERSONAL AGENDAS ON TO THE CHILDREN!!!

Carrie had sat and talked me through it assuring I'd be comfortable & how safe the environment is for the children. Can't imagine taking my girls anywhere else. The teachers treat my daughter as if they are their own. She's loved, and they have incredible patience & keep me up to date with everything. If you're looking for a daycare, highly recommend this one.
