I choose The Gardner School of Dublin for my very special daughter at two years old because we were…read morelooking for a new daycare who fostered a care for children and learning as well. Since my first interaction with the past director Katie it has been a great experience for my child. She has grown up so much and loved each staff member who has cared and fostered a caring and learning atmosphere for children. We have seen a girl who started out with some flaws and learned so much in each classroom she has been in with each teacher. It has been a great atmosphere for her and she loves to tell us about her day at daycare which we love to hear about as well. Currently she's in Enchantment A with Mr. Devyn who is so caring and compassionate about teaching his classroom. He brings a fun and engaging learning atmosphere to this classroom. I am also pleased to see my daughter making so friends here which wasn't easy before here. We appreciate being able to sign our daughter up for in school karate, dance, gymnastics, soccer, etc. Instead of having to scramble to all these activities after school. The school calendar is always busy and they always have activities planned from school year to summer camp. The educational tools and activities are enough to keep my daughter consistently engaged and happy. The facility itself is so clean too. My daughters favorite part is the "the green." The green is the play area for all the children to hang out. If you're looking for the best private daycare for your child look no further than The Gardner School of Dublin their staff is compassionate and they really care for the children here. You can clearly see if through these kids eyes!

I can't state enough how much our family loves The Gardner School of Dublin, it's teachers, and…read morestaff. Our son has been there since he was 11 weeks old and he is now 4 years old. A lot of the staff is still the same which shows a good work environment for them and stability for the kids that go there. We feel blessed to have found them and have never questioned that he wasn't getting the best care possible away from us. Academically he is ahead and is always appropriately challenged with the great preschool curriculum but also gets to exercise, play with friends, and generally be a little kid. Another thing that has stood out to use recently is how the CEO and upper management is handling the COVID-19 breakout. They are keeping us up to date, making informed decisions, and caring for their staff as well as the kids. There is a current plan and they are working on a continued plan to be able to pay the teachers while the school may be closed. They all take such good care of the kids year-round it makes me so happy TGS is willing to take care of the teachers and staff during this time of unknowns! We give The Gardner School of Dublin an A++++++!

The staff have always been very receptive to any concerns or ideas and how to implement them into his day. They will talk to me about any successes, or even road blocks he encountered throughout a day and describe how he succeeded in working through it, or how they worked with him to work around issues. Even just coming in to pick him up and them telling me how something he did made them laugh is really fun, and I get the sense that they care about each kid in this way and how they grow. When you come and pick you're child up at the end of the day, and they are bummed that they are getting picked up, I take that as a sign they were having fun and enjoying the environment. And I feel like the teachers do a great job and keeping the room fun, while still challenging and teaching them tools that they will need further down (in school or otherwise).

I did not have a pleasant experience with Primrose School of Dublin the last few months we were…read moreenrolled and decided to take my children out.

My little one has been going to Primrose for a few months now (he is in the older infant class-15…read moremonths old). He has learned so much while he has been there, I do not consider this a daycare but truly a school. Primrose uses an app called Tadpoles, this is an all digital system, so no paper filling out, everything you put in (last diaper change, last meal etc) goes into your phone app and directly to the school. The reports and messages from the school comes to your phone as well, they even send pictures as well, which is nice to see how your child is doing during the day. They also offer another app as well that is your child's class music you can download to your phone as well and listen to anytime! Primrose sticks to a schedule of meal times, activities etc, which is great. Though right now, we are still living on the other side of town and sometimes cut the breakfast time a little close. But, if we are running late, we can call and they will ensure my little one gets breakfast. The admin staff are great, they knew my name right after I took the tour and continue to be very accommodating and nice when we call, no matter the reason. The curriculum for the kids is great, on the app, I see everything my child has learned that day, they also send home things you can further assist your child in learning that fits into the weekly learning plan. I would recommend this school for anyone who is considering a great school for their child. Though the wait time can be longer, put in your name as things change and your child may be able to get in before the usual waiting period.

Each program is built around strong parent teacher communication to help your child succeed. Kudos bright star! We think you're wonderful

They unfortunately believed in "if she's hungry, she'll eat" philosophy which unfortunately was not the case with my baby. She has been exclusively breastfed and genuinely struggles to eat from a bottle. The sucking action is way different between breasts and a bottle. She took bottle from a couple people there. But they wanted her to learn to take it from anyone. So they STARVED my baby from 8-5 everyday for a couple weeks and asked the teachers she was comfortable with to STOP giving her the bottle! They also tried sleep training her with CIO method while she was hungry and starving. They also force fed her one time with one teacher locking her in her arms while the other was squirting milk into her mouth. They said this THEMSELVES as though they were taming a wild animal, that too when we grew very concerned that her weight dropped drastically. The school said she's one of the most stubborn babies they have ever seen and that they cannot care for her anymore. She's a BABY! And you say you have decades of experience! Apparently my daughter thought she's the boss and everything had to happen her way. The director complained that my baby spilled food on one of the teachers and the poor teacher had to call home and have her relative bring change of clothes for her. Excuse me? You work with babies and they are messy! You should know that by now! They are still learning their hands and legs coordination at that age and that's why they need someone to feed them and can't feed themselves. NOT my baby's fault that she spilled something! The school definitely don't work on building trust with the baby and working their way into a baby's life. They only believe in meeting physiological needs as though they are running a circus! Glad we are out of there.

It is a non-fussy place full of smiles and fun. They don't try to be pretentious and feed your kids onions and brussel sprouts like some of the other daycares, just good honest kid approved food that is still healthy. They also have great hours of operation. The place is always extremely clean! Cannot say enough good things!

It has been an exciting, enriching and rewarding experience for all three. Even though we live in a community with a nationally ranked public school system, we chose Wellington because of the small class size and personal attention that a school of Wellington's size can deliver. We have not been disappointed. Our children thrive academically. They also have the opportunity to be in the band, play three different sports (lax, basketball and soccer) throughout the year without worries of being cut from the team (Wellington has a "no cuts" policy) and they can be in theater productions. Wellington encourages diversity in student interests and demonstrates its commitment to diversity in its teachers and in the students it accepts. Wellington parents are friendly, involved and welcome at Wellington. While some schools emphasize "rigor," Wellington seeks "engagement." Wellington students are engaged, active learners who generally are inspired to learn more, do more. It's an amazing place.

The teachers and administrators care about their students and the curriculum is fun and age appropriate. We appreciate the level of communication we receive (daily reports of what the kids were up to, along with photos from the day), which allow us to engage in conversations with our kids when they say they "don't remember" what they did that day. We started each of our sons in intermediate class (age 3-4) and both have developed new skills, made new friends, and grown so much thanks to their teachers. We were also thrilled to learn that many of our neighbors send their kids to ECLC as well, so our boys are both entering elementary school with friends they've known for a few years.
