Health & Safety

Nothing is more important than your child’s health and safety.

Since opening the first Primrose school in 1982, the health and safety of children and staff has always been a top priority. We hold each Primrose school to high standards of safety and cleanliness while maintaining a caring and nurturing environment where children can thrive.

Schools follow our stringent health and safety protocols, including:

  • Requiring any children or staff with fever to return home and stay home until fever free for at least 24 hours
  • Frequent disinfecting and sanitizing of high-touch toys and surfaces
  • Frequent handwashing by children and staff, which is embedded in our curriculum and daily staff protocols
  • Training teachers on common signs of illness in children, and placing signage in every classroom to keep signs of illness top of mind
  • Daily laundering of crib sheets for infants; for older children, individual cots and blankets are provided for each child and laundered weekly
  • Continuous health & safety training for Franchise Owners and staff, including first aid and CPR certification
  • Maintaining an up-to-date and customized Safe School Plan posted in all classrooms for easy teacher access
  • Monthly emergency drills so children and staff are prepared for emergencies
  • In most states, ensuring lower teacher-student classroom ratios than required by the state
