At Primrose, we truly believe that with the right foundation, anything is possible.
We embrace every opportunity to encourage active minds, healthy bodies and happy hearts.
With Primrose, you're more than a parent. You're a partner. In over 200 preschools across America, we are passionately delivering on our promise to families to be their trusted partner and to provide the best for their children.
We also understand parents want to find more balance between the demands of work and family life.
We share this philosophy for ourselves, and we help our parents, management, and teaching staff achieve it also.
The accredited Primrose Balanced Learning curriculum, launched in 2001 and built upon the original school model, blends the two leading philosophies of teaching young children the child-initiated approach and the teacher-directed approach and balances this with character development and play.
The Primrose character development program teaches children the importance of helping others and being involved in the local community.
