My children were surrounded by loving teachers throughout their years at Primrose. Instructors cared about my child's interests and individualized their learning plans as the progressed through the programs. Each of them graduated pre-k with capabilities that exceeded my expectations.

Three years ago, I was a nervous new mom to a four month old little girl dropping her off at daycare for the first time. As I headed back to work, I knew we had found the best place for our little girl. We felt loved and welcomed at Primrose Buford. The staff made us feel like we were the most important people there that day and have continued to make us feel that way every day. I love walking my daughter to her class and watching her face light up when she sees her teacher and friends. Now as I drop off my daughter and seven month old son, we look forward to the good mornings and good afternoons each day. We have found a family at Primrose. We are so thankful for all that they do for our children daily.

Our experience with Primrose School of Buford has been wonderful. The staff really care about the children. My mother was so impressed when she came for Grandparent's Day with how the staff interacted with all of the children and can't get over the progress my child has been making since joining Primrose. She tells others that my child is well advanced compared to us (her own children) and other children she has interacted with over her course of work at a pediatrics office. She always talks about the skills that my son is doing that's well beyond his age group!

When it was time to go back to work, deciding who would care for our 3-month-old baby was very difficult. What made the process easier was how outstanding the leadership and steady teachers at Primrose School of Buford were every step of the way. We can tell they genuinely care for our son from our interactions each morning to the check-ins on how he's doing when he's out sick. They guided us through every new milestone this first year, answered a million questions, reassured us as new parents, and are excited to see our son each day.

I don't know where to start, Primrose School of Buford has truly been the best decision we ever made! Our son started there four years ago, and even though we took a break due to work schedules and figuring out logistics, we had to come right back because we knew the education, academics, and staff training is second to none. Currently both our kids are at Primrose, and we would never go anywhere else! We spoke with and researched many schools, but when you speak with Primrose you will know the difference and the choice is clear! They are truly the best at what they do- the staff, the leadership, and everyone is incredible and very dedicated to the students. As a parent we feel very happy to know our kids are loved and cared for the same way that they are at home.
