Author: Mistie Parker Rating: 1/5 Date: 2/13/2023, 6:22:19 PM Review: Teachers were overall great, however staff was absolutely not helpful. Not military friendly and if you have assistance thru Child Care Aware they will not apply the assistance in a timely manner. The payments are on autopay and will continue to take your money. I am owed close to 3,000$ in a refund and they have been taking over 3 weeks and still waiting to give my money back to me. I continue to be told “it’s processing and a check should be mailed any day now”. There is no transparency with the status of my refund. They’re quick to take your money but are slow to refund it. Overly expensive compared to other daycare facilities. Doesn’t even provide baby food for infants. My preschooler was bullied by the same child and had incident reports every day for almost 2 weeks straight while the staff did nothing. Too many children in the classrooms for the amount of teachers they have. It’s clear they are more about money. ----- Author: Katharina Palmer Rating: 2/5 Date: 4/22/2022, 10:45:55 PM Review: UPDATE: ever since Mrs Temple, the director, left, this place has been going downhill fast. We pulled both kids out. As first time parents, it is so hard to leave your child in the care of someone else. The staff and teachers at Primrose have made this transition so much easier for us. Our daughter is now 2 (started at 8 weeks old) and we have constantly been amazed about the teachers there. They truly care about the kids and treat them with so much respect and love. My daughter loves going there and has thrived in this environment. Our second baby will be starting in the infant room soon!
Is this day care considered safe?
Yes
Many reviewers emphasize the loving and safe environment provided by the staff, creating a sense of security for the children.

The most important thing I love is that I know my child is safe. They don’t let any one in the classrooms. They also provide snacks which saves us money and time. Thank you Primrose for your support!!

I cannot begin to describe what a blessing Primrose School of Bloomingdale has been for our family. The teachers clearly love their students and take immaculate care of the children under their care. Our child has thrived during their time at Primrose and has fostered a deep love for learning. I whole heartedly recommend Primrose to anyone looking for a secure, loving environment for their child.
My 2 year old went here and we had to change schools because of location. This place starts with Mrs. Drake. She takes time every single day to help parents with struggling to drop off their kids, by walking them to the class herself, to checking on kids if they’re left crying when dropped off. She tries to accommodate everyone & she’s super warm and friendly! Then you have Ms. Lopez in the 2s class. Her energy every morning is refreshing. My kid, most of the time, had a hard time with drop off. But she would make it an easier one by welcoming him with arms wide open and positive energy. She’s was THE BEST teacher my sons ever had. When you leave the place is when you start to appreciate the great teachers and administrators.
We were at Primrose for two years and had a great experience. The staff was wonderful and so organized and communicative with us. We also had the pleasure of meeting so many teachers along the way that helped our daughter grow and felt like family to us. We always got notifications throughout the day on the app, and I love how most of the classes breakout the kids age by 6 month increments. It was also really nice that most of the classes have their own little playground set that is based on age.
My husband and I are thrilled with Primrose of School of Bloomingdale! The staff is extremely supportive and demonstrates to us every day how much they care about our son, Mateo. This is not observed during our interactions but also how our son reacts and behaves around them. We can tell he is happy to be there and with everyone that cares for him. Special thanks to Ms. Rodriguez, Ms. Drake, and the highly energetic and loving Ms. Lopez ❤️.
The teachers and staff really care about the kids and our kid loved the experience and teachers.
We LOVE Primrose at Bloomingdale. All 3 of my kids have gone through their program. They’ve been amazing EVERY step of the way! The staff was instrumental in the potty training journey with my youngest— my son— my problem child lol they were kind and patient. It breaks my heart that we’ve had to move on. They’ve been such a wonderful support system for me and my family.
I have had two kids go through Primose (13 years apart) and the experience both times has been amazing! Our son loves going to school each day. The teachers really care about the kids. They are wonderful about updating the app and putting pictures in the app so I can see what he is doing every day. We absolutely love this school and would recommend it to anyone looking for a great place for their child!
I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible experience my son had at this daycare over the past four years. From the moment we walked through the doors, we felt like we were part of a warm and loving family. The staff and administrators are not just professionals; they are genuinely caring individuals who invest their hearts and souls into the well-being and development of every child. My son thrived in this nurturing environment, and it's evident that the caregivers here go above and beyond to create a stimulating and safe space for the little ones. The educational activities, creative play, and social interactions have not only prepared my son for school but have also instilled in him a love for learning and a sense of confidence that will undoubtedly stay with him throughout his life. The bond he formed with his teachers and peers is truly heartwarming, and I credit the daycare's supportive atmosphere for fostering these meaningful connections. Leaving my child in their capable hands every day was never a worry; I knew he was in the best possible care. To the entire staff and administration, thank you for being such an essential part of my son's formative years. Your dedication and love have made an indelible impact on our lives, and we will always cherish the memories and lessons he gained here. If you're looking for a daycare that feels like a second home, look no further. This place is a gem, and we are incredibly grateful to have been a part of this wonderful community. With heartfelt thanks, Tara and Steven Burley
Cannot say enough positive things about this daycare. We recently switched our kids about 6 months ago and couldn’t be happier with our decision. The teachers and administration staff really care about the kids they care for and it shows. My kids are in the VPK and two year old class and they love it there. Staff is always friendly and welcoming every day. They listen if I have any concerns with any of my kids and are great about communicating. Highly recommend this daycare !
