Ms. Nicole is very informative and you can tell after the initial visit how invested she is in all of the kids. I was surprised that not only do they offer childcare but family events and date nights. With my oldest son is elementary school it is great to be able to drop both boys off in one spot and know that I can depend on them to drop off and pick up my son from school. It is easy to see how much the kids love the teachers after just a few days. Ms Lauren is always dancing singing or reading to my youngest from what I see at pick up time. Ms Allison is great with the school age kids she is always making the kids feel special with prizes and awards. The summer camp schedule is filled with many field trips and learning activities. I would definitely recommend this daycare to anyone I know.

The place is dirty, looks unorganized , dark, gloomy, it just had a negative vibe from the minute the doors were open to look inside. I was being toured the room where my daughter would be - it was outdated - looked like it was an old thrift store - no thought or love or care put into the facilities but whatever .. but then it got real bad when I was toured in the cafeteria . the lights were turned off , they had some weird meditation music , and 5 watchers standing around awkwardly like prison guards. The group of children sat there looking miserable and scared . One child sat there crying at the top of his lungs and NO ONE - not even the director (who stopped her conversation with me to let me know it was his first day ) ever acknowledged the child or nurtured him . He continued to cry and the director kept speaking and the 5 prison guards just stood there with blank faces - and at that point I wanted to go to the child and just hold him and my mind just couldn't focus on anything that lady was saying to me anymore - at that point the child made a run for the door and one of the prison guards ran quickly to grab him . That dude grabbed the child like a rag doll by his arms and plopped the baby back in the chair - again never talking to the child or acknowledging that the baby was clearly scared and highly upset. I saw enough and just told blurted - "yeah I'm going to leave I can't - so no one is going to nurture the child or hold him or anything ? This is definti not the place for me". If your baby started Little Tykes today Thursday Dec. 14, 2023 - he had a traumatic day. Figure out a way to borrow money if you need to and find a better place to leave your children. This has me sick to my stomach all day. That was with a prospect around - imagine when they are alone with these people !!!!!

This school is definitely impressive at first glance and has good teachers (Ms. Genesis, Ms. Monica…read moreprimarily), however, it seems greed has overtaken the family ownership, Mr and Mrs Mathis. My son was tolerated by the school and nurtured by the two outstanding teachers named above. With this school, there are positives. HOWEVER, The daughter of the owner, Ms. Ashley, was moved into a leadership position as the parents were traveling more internationally and building out a new business, their tea room. The daughter is not fit for education and she verbalizes her lack of tolerance for children who test limits and have bigger personalities. My son came home 3 times saying he was being pinched at school - the first 2 times I brought it up to my sons direct teacher and Ms. Ashley and I was told this would absolutely never happen and that my child was lying - while being reminded that making up stories is age appropriate. Leadership makes comments about parents to other parents and a parent is labeled "difficult" when they question leadership and advocate for their child. 3rd time my son came home saying he was pinched was the same day he kicked Ms. Ashley, who he had been saying was pinching him. When I asked the school for a formal investigation into the pinching my son's education was terminated by the owner, Mrs. Mathis and reminded "this js our lifeline" as in their reputation and outward image is more important than my child's safety in the school. The school supposedly has cameras (parents do not have access) yet this incident of kicking and pinching were in an area that is known by the staff to not be captured on camera. Overall the education is excellent AMI Montessori, the leadership, communication, collaboration and desire for parent involvement is not consistent with Montessori, lacks professionalism, and is not capable of receiving feedback or open to improvement. When we toured and initially joined the school the Mathis' were self portrayed as warm, very child-loving individuals who had a passion for children, Montessori education, and child enrichment. My final impression is one of money over everything.

I expressed my concerns about the ratio and the wellbeing of the children and the teachers to the director Sonya and she decided to terminate my child's care immediately. I didn't curse her out or anything. I simply expressed my concerns about the fact that it's 1 teacher and AT LEAST 7 infants (there's 7 infants in the classroom my child was in). Texas teacher to infant ratio is 1:4 (0-11 months) and 1:5(12-17 months) and even that is a lot. so for one teacher to be left with up to 9 babies is crazy. The director claims that it's two teachers but every day I picked him up there is not two teachers. The other teacher is with the toddlers. She claims that she cares about the well being of the children and the staff but I can't tell. There was literally a toddler in the room with 7 other infants and still ONE teacher. That is unsafe for all the children and the teacher. If I dropped my child off before the infant teacher got there, my child was out with the bigger kids and they were completely out of ratio. Also they changed the pick up/drop process less than 2 hours after I expressed my concerns about the ratio. It is a really small daycare. Getting to and from the daycare is a hassle. Parking is a nightmare. Navigating through the daycare itself is a hassle. My child was only there for 15 days before he was terminated immediately and it honestly was a blessing in disguise. Please think twice before you send your child here and if you still decide to I wish you and your family the best!

My son enrolled at Primrose School of Park Cities in January 2020. He has attended daycare/school…read moresince he was 9 months old and has never enjoyed a child care center like he does now. He loves going to school every day, he loves his teachers, and has made many friends. Prior to starting, I was concerned with his speech and some of his social skills but after 4 short months he has grown and developed so much and I believe it is due to the environment and curriculum at Primrose. Nicole is super sweet every morning when I drop off, and my son loves her yoga class! The school itself is very clean and the classrooms very clean, colorful, and organized. The parents and families are also very kind! Lastly, we are very thankful that Primrose remains open during this national crisis, as I am a single mom and an essential worker. If it was not for Primrose being available to care for my son as I work, I'm not sure what we would do. I feel safe and have peace of mind as Primrose has made sure to take all necessary precautions to be sanitary and protect the kids and staff!! Thank you Primrose.
