Our kids: - were excited to be there every day - were surrounded by wonderful, nurturing teachers who balanced play with development. Our kids were beyond prepared for kindergarten in every sense. - made tons of friends, including from younger and older classes because there's some cross-over play time. It's small enough that every teacher knew our kids well. - loved the facility - the rooms have a super happy energy and the backyard is shady and full of activities - had the option to participate in a wide range of extra activities that the school coordinates to take place onsite - Spanish, soccer, swimming, gymnastics, dance Both of my daughters attended from age 3 onward and I only wish we'd started there sooner because the difference in their happiness between their first preschool and Creative World was so stark. We're so grateful to everyone there who played such a pivotal role in our children's lives (and ours in taking such good care of them!). We've since recommended it to a number of friends, who've all had similarly fantastic experiences.

My daughter started at Creative World as she was ready for a school that challenged her intellect…read moreand provided her a calm environment to play. My daughter used to hit someone everyday at her last school and once she transferred to Creative World, her behaviors just stopped. The teachers are caring, calm, fun, and understand the needs of my daughter. The playground is the best in Reno and she has extracurriculars provided through the school. I know my daughter is safe and loved while she's at school. The owner Liz is understanding and knows what's important to families and I feel so blessed to call Creative World our preschool.

We've been taking our kiddos to Little Hands for about 6 months now and cannot say enough good…read morethings. All the teachers are fantastic; they're happy to be there, they're great with the kids, and most of them are eager to communicate about your child's day and work with you on developmental goals (our youngest is potty training and they've been helpful with suggestions and ideas for success and are never judgmental about our approach). I love the fact that their day consists of learning new things, tons of reading, TONS AND TONS of artwork, and a decent amount of outside time. I've always thought a good way to tell if a child has enjoyed themselves is to just look at them. My kids come home filthy almost every day and I'm thrilled by that! They are playing hard and discovering new things and on those occasions when we can't be there to do that with them, I'm comforted to know they're surrounded by people who will nurture their curiosity and sense of adventure. Like most of the other centers in town, they have the tumble bus once a week but they also have yoga once a week and my kids have benefited from that more than I ever would have guessed. They both really enjoy that time and I would love to see other opportunities like dance or martial arts someday. I think it's a great way to introduce the kids to different activities and give them a taste of everything so they can decide which ones to pursue further on our own. Overall, I think this is a great place! They're growing and improving constantly and I'm excited my kids get to be a part of it.

UNBELIEVABLE! The individuals who run this place are extremely unorganized and clearly do not…read morecommunicate with each other. We called in early March for availability for our infant and were told the soonest was May which worked perfectly with our timeline. We came in to tour and then coordinated a day to come in before our infants first day. We came in to do our orientation a week prior to the first day and Yaya seemed very confused when we came in and told us she "couldn't remember" what room our infant was placed into.. We were shown the classroom she would be in and were introduced to the teachers. We were told that she would have a cubby for all her items; however, on the first day of drop off she did not have a cubby or an area for her items. Not to mention I did not even recognize the teachers who were in the classroom with her. When I went to look for the items I dropped off, I found them items on the floor in a storage closet while other infants had their items neatly set up and put away. When we confronted the center they claimed "a label" is not a reflection of the care our child will receive and the excuse was "Erica" has been out for a week and they didn't know where our infant's stuff was so they couldn't set up her items properly. They had plenty of notice to prepare for our infant advance. It may just be a label but what it shows me they are unorganized, lack basic communication skills amongst their employees and if they can't properly store her necessities, they lack the ability to they take care of my child, it is 100% a reflection of the care my child will receive.

Primrose is a wonderful school. My daughter has been there since it opened and loves it 1.5 years…read morelater. Primrose has nurturing teachers, convenient pick up and drop off times, a diversity of healthy snacks and meals, compassionate administrators, and a lovely community of parents. They have date night options as well as camps for school breaks for my older child. Their curriculum is fun, creative, and developmentally appropriate, with dance and sports extras. My 4 year old has school readiness skills and phonetic awareness that rivals what my son, who attended a play based day care, had at the end of kindergarten. As a full time working mom, I am so impressed by the school and thankful for this high quality and reliable care.

We have had an outstanding experience at Primrose School of South Reno. I cannot recommend this…read moreschool enough! We transferred our toddler to Primrose when they opened in October as we were not satisfied with our previous care provider. Enrollment in Primrose is the best childcare decision we've made for our daughter. Her vocabulary, both verbal and through sign language, greatly improved after enrollment. The toddler lesson plans are fun and educational so she's constantly surprising us at home with what she's learned in school. We are very pleased with her progress. Primrose uses the Procare application to update parents throughout the day and send general school notifications. We receive updates regarding our child's diapering, nap times (she consistently naps on her cot for 2-2.5 hours) and how much she's eating. We also get the occasional picture and she looks so happy in each one! Primrose provides a balanced meal plan and I'm satisfied in knowing my child is getting all the nutrients her body needs. She loves the food and has expanded her palate. I'm happy she finally likes noodles too! Honestly, she eats better than I do during the work week! Also, the chef is very friendly. My daughter waves to her during most morning drop-offs. I'm told they often wave to each other during the day since the toddler classroom is across from the kitchen too. I love how much fun the chef has with the children too. The school has a great security system which is important to my husband and I. You are unable to enter the building without a code and the outdoor play areas have tall rod iron fences. They practice monthly fire drills too. We are 100% confident in our daughter's safety at Primrose. Regarding cleanliness, teachers are cleaning throughout the day, they purchased electro-static sprayers to disinfect twice per week, and there's a cleaning company that comes in 5 days a week to sanitize high touch surfaces. I believe there are also air purifiers in the classrooms. It is clear that Bethany and Alonzo, the owners of this franchise location, are passionate about childcare and education, as are the Primrose teachers. They are all dedicated to the children and present a fun, caring and educational environment. I love the updates and conversations I have with them during pick-ups. I can't rave about Primrose School of South Reno enough. We look forward to long-term childcare with this school and feel blessed to be a Primrose pioneer!

She gives you her cell number and allows you to call or text her if you ever have any questions. Honestly, I can't say enough about this school and the teachers. We never wanted our daughter to leave but are happy that she's more than prepared for grade school because of Alpeh and Ms. Emily!

Have you spent countless hours wading through websites and reading reviews trying to find a loving, safe and affordable program for your preschooler to attend? Look no further--your search is over. Annie and Friends Preschool is the hidden gem you've been looking for. This program is truly the best-kept secret of early childhood education in the greater Northern Nevada area. The school offers phenomenal instruction with a robust, well-developed curriculum that goes far beyond the accreditation standards for Washoe County, the State of Nevada and the NAEYC. The school's principal and lead instructor, Miss Annie, holds a master's degree in early childhood education from Arizona State University. The caliber of her background plus her many years of teaching experience really sets this program apart from others in the area. Learning is tailored to each child's talents, strengths and learning styles. Each child is given a phenomenal opportunity to achieve cognitive milestones within a loving and supporting environment. The most exciting thing? Our son is reading and doing simple addition/subtraction problems! He is well on his way to being prepared for kindergarten next year. Thanks to Miss Annie's creative lesson planning, he has also learned empathy towards others and positive ways to express his emotions. Our son comes home every day excited about the world around him while discovering his place in it. We are amazed that this level of world-class instruction is available here in the Reno-Tahoe area at such an affordable price. We are so thankful we found Annie and Friends!

Events like the family lunches, Mother's Day and Father's Day celebrations, and holiday parties make it feel like more than just a school--it's a community.
