    We have had such a wonderful experience with Primrose. From the very beginning, the staff made us…read morefeel completely comfortable and confident leaving our daughter in their care. The teachers in the infant room are incredibly attentive, nurturing, and genuinely invested in each child. They take the time to learn every baby's individual needs, routines, and personality, which has made such a difference for our daughter. We always feel reassured knowing she is in a safe, loving, and engaging environment. Communication has been excellent--whether it's updates throughout the day, feeding and nap details, or just sharing sweet moments. It means so much to know how she's doing while we're apart. We've also noticed great developmental progress since our daughter started. It's clear the team is intentional about supporting growth through age-appropriate activities, interaction, and care. We are so grateful to have found a daycare that treats our daughter like family. I would highly recommend this program to any parent looking for a trustworthy and loving place for their child.

    Update: Leadership at Primrose referenced "confidentiality requirements" and "steps already taken,"…read morein their public response to my review (seen below). In the interest of transparency, current and prospective parents should know that those steps included having their attorney at Goodspeed and Merrill send my family a cease‑and‑desist letter threatening a defamation lawsuit in conjunction with a fabricated CPS report if I did not immediately remove my review. The CPS allegations they threatened to file were created by flipping our concerns about the school back onto us; even if those allegations had been true, they still would not constitute child abuse. I'll be attaching the threatening document they sent so families can understand exactly what is going on. My review is based entirely on my firsthand experience. Any parent who wants to understand the situation more fully is welcome to reach out. Original Post: I'm writing this as a parent who keeps receipts- emails, timelines, photos, everything. And based on that documentation, I want other families to know what we experienced here. Our son came home with a bad bruise on his back, yet we heard nothing from the school. When brought to their attention, the school said they documented, but they repeatedly refused to give us the incident report. This wasn't an isolated issue. When our son caught a virus the school had emailed about a week earlier, the owner later denied the presence of the virus -- despite us having the original message. We also discovered missed diaper changes in our son's log that led to a severe diaper rash. From my perspective, this daycare is more focused on protecting its image than being honest with parents or providing consistent care. Please do your homework before enrolling -- ask for policies in writing and trust your instincts.

    This school has been a saving grace for our family, and we are so happy to have found it…read more We checked out the Little School after recommendations from multiple people on a Highlands Ranch Facebook group. Our daughter was painfully shy, and had a difficult time speaking with other kids, and wouldn't even consider talking to other adults. A COVID kid through and through. She is a November baby, so she couldn't go into school until she was almost four, as she is past the October 1 deadline. Lucky for us, St. Luke's offers a 2.5 year old program structured like preschool for kids that would normally have to wait an extra year. Since starting at the Little School our child has blossomed. She is playing with other kids, talking to adults, and her vocabulary has doubled. Her teacher is so thoughtful and considerate, and they are always doing fun activities. She's regularly doing and saying things I had no idea she knew how to do or say! She also loves it, and says "I wanna go to preschool" every morning when she wakes up. We are so thankful for the Little School, and absolutely plan on keeping her enrolled until she enters kindergarten. They have totally changed our child for the better! If anything, I just wish she went more.

Safety was always an obvious priority throughout our tenure and I trusted my kids would be taken care of physically and emotionally by all staff at Little School. I HIGHLY recommend this incredible preschool to friends and strangers alike!

These will show clearly not only does the owner not care about child safety but that these kids are being ignored by the teachers. If a teacher was paying attention and not talking to friends on their phones most of these could have been avoided. I have a ton more issues with this school and owner. The issues include: My daughter being left with spoiled milk for extended periods during full school days on multiple occasions. Being informed that there is no standard practice to replace children's cups with fresh water during the day or to clean them routinely. Frequent minor injuries occurring on a near-weekly basis, which I believe are related to inadequate supervision. I have personally observed staff using phones during classroom hours instead of actively monitoring the children. A consistent lack of communication regarding my daughter's daily activities. Despite being told she participates in art daily, I have never received any of her work. A noticeable behavioral change in my daughter. She was previously comfortable and social; she is now fearful of returning and appears anxious around other children. When I ask about my daughter's day at drop-off or pick-up, I am often ignored or treated as though my questions are an inconvenience. Teachers playing on cellphones while watching children which leads to more incidents, lack of care, and discomfort around students The owners reply shows zero remorse and more frames it as a misunderstanding? Do these look like a misunderstanding? These children are being neglected. They do nothing to help parents issues or help the students

In under 3 months, our son was bitten 4 times, each severe enough to break skin. One incident wasn't even noticed by staff; we discovered it at home. We were told there were known "biters" in the class before my son had even started at the daycare, confirmed by the teacher, yet the issue continued without meaningful intervention. It became clear this was an ongoing classroom problem that was not being properly managed, creating an unsafe environment not just for our child but for others as well. After the fourth bite, I stated this could not continue and that my child's safety comes first. Within an hour after talking to the teacher and administration in the morning, we received an email saying I was "rude and disrespectful" and our child was immediately terminated. Yes, they will say they communicated and followed protocol but repeated injuries, a missed incident, and lack of improvement tell a different story. Dismissing a family for speaking up instead of addressing the issue is unacceptable. Instead of fixing a known problem, they chose to remove the family who raised it.

Her learning has grown exponentially here as well. They use an app that updates us on how she's doing throughout the day which is wonderful for a working mama. My second daughter will be starting at 6 months and we are so excited to know she's going somewhere safe where she'll learn & thrive. There is so much to look at for childcare & we're so happy we found Ohana.

    I'm writing this review as a parent whose children attended Northridge Elementary School, and I…read morefeel compelled to share the deeply troubling experiences we endured over the years. My oldest son attended Northridge from 2nd through 6th grade, and his time there was marked by repeated incidents of bullying and racial discrimination. He was physically assaulted multiple times--on the school bus, in the hallways, and during recess. One of the most horrifying incidents involved another student beating him with my son's own 40oz Yeti bottle while hurling racial slurs. This was caught on camera and reported, yet the school failed to take meaningful action. Even during his final days at Northridge, the trauma continued. In May 2023, after receiving his yearbook, a student wrote the N-word in it. When I brought this to the principal's attention the last few weeks of school. On graduation day, I was told they were "sorry" but couldn't do anything because it was the end of the school year. That response was not only dismissive, it was unacceptable. Sadly, my younger child, who was in kindergarten that same year, also faced bullying. He was physically hurt when another student slammed his hand in the front door and was repeatedly cursed at and harassed during class, lunchtime and recess. Staff members were often disengaged, more focused on their phones than supervising the children. Again, the school failed to act, offering excuses and false claims that police had been involved, but none of which were true. Throughout our time at Northridge, incidents were brushed aside, and no real consequences were ever enforced. The emotional toll on my children has been significant, and the school's failure to protect them or take responsibility is beyond disappointing. I have other children, and I will never enroll them at Northridge. No family should have to endure what we did. Shame on this school for its negligence and lack of compassion.

Teachers are great and principal, Katie Lynch, is really compassionate. My oldest nephew also goes here and it's been really neat to see them grow. COVID handling was pretty touch and go but I think that's how it goes everywhere. Drop off and pick up are a nightmare- make sure to have a routine and leave with enough time to park!
