Primrose School of Arden Hills and Shoreview

We have nothing but good things to say about Primrose! They really worked with us to accommodate our (ever changing) schedule for our young guy. Could always tell that he was treated with such great love and care and also learned a lot. His passion from books definitely came from all of the reading and circle time. We especially loved having Miss Barb as she left an exceptionally positive imprint on him and our family. All in all, the teachers are kind, receptive to feedback, very communicative, and lots of fun to be around for the kids!

After parting ways with our beloved nanny when my son was 18 months old, we opted to try a center/school for childcare. We toured several, but Primrose stood out in the friendliness of staff, organization by leadership and administrative staff, cleanliness of the building, intentional curriculum, and indoor gym (game changer for a little boy). One year later and we continue to be impressed! We recently started our daughter in the infant classroom and have had a wonderful experience. All of the staff, not just their individual teachers, know our children's names and clearly are invested in caring for and understanding them. The teachers are calm, compassionate, and patient. Teachers and leadership have been wonderful at communicating with us. We trust the teachers' judgement; we've asked teachers for input and advice several times and found it really helpful! We love all the "extras" that they do (family events, Grandparent's day, water days, etc) that make it clear that they are invested in family and having fun! We have said, many times over, how thankful we are for our children to be at Primrose.

I love working at Primrose, it has been my favorite job by far! The leadership team is amazing and always understanding of my crazy college schedule! It has been a great learning experience and I have gained a lot of confidence in my teaching skills. The staff is also so kind and welcoming. I’ve been able to make some great friends along the way!

I love working at Primrose Schools! My believes and philosophies about children as an educator, but also as a mother truly align with Primrose’s mission: “To forge a path that leads to a brighter future for all children”. I started my role as Assistant Director in March of 2021. I enjoy the high level of variety my role offers. Each day brings something new, from working with our teachers in the classrooms, to enrolling new families and growing our center. The best part of it all is connecting with our families and staff by building relationships with them and their children. The guidance and support I have received from our School Director Jodi, and our school owner, Mr. Karmaliani, has been invaluable to my success. I look forward to continuing my career at Primrose.

High quality child care and education! The teachers and staff are always welcoming and provide a nurturing environment. We love, love, love Primrose in Arden Hills/Shoreview and would highly recommend it. We have nothing but wonderful things to say about Primrose. ❤️
