It hard to be a working mom and I struggled when I first started using daycare because I felt guilty about starting a career. The fact is she is in great hands when she is here and I get a lot of updates through the day with pictures and updates on when she is fed and changed and naps. I know that she is having a great time and being able to learn social skills with other children and it makes me feel at ease knowing that she is loved on by all these amazing ladies. Thank you watch me grow for taking care of my sweet baby.

    We've been bringing our kids to Little Sunshine's in Gilbert since 2023, and honestly, it's been…read moreone of the best decisions we made. What sets this place apart is the balance. There's a real curriculum and structure, but the teachers weave so much genuine play and joy into everything the kids do. And the cleanliness? Top-notch. But what really keeps us coming back is the relationships. Our son started with Hannah, and they clicked instantly. Years later, our daughter had that same connection with her right away. Both kids have also been absolutely obsessed with Betsy and Fanny and they light up when they talk about them. We've also gotten to know some of the newer assistants like Kate and Ashlyn, and they've built such genuine bonds with both our kids. What impressed us most, though, is how the front office, Kim and Mon especially, make you feel genuinely cared for. We know turnover happens in daycares, and this team handles it really well. Because they're part of a larger network across multiple locations, teachers can transition between centers seamlessly. The kids often already know them or the teachers are deeply trained on the curriculum and processes, so they can jump right in and focus on what matters: the kids. That eases a lot of the uncertainty parents usually feel during transitions. The whole team makes you feel at home. That matters so much when you're trusting someone with your kids.

I was terrified to put my daughter In school as a first time mom. I actually couldn't handle the anxiety so I pulled her out after I was sobbing all day the first day she was gone. Well, penny and the staff were not only empathetic but made me feel comfortable doing things on my own time table. So when I decided to try again a week later I was welcomed with open arms. The quality of the teachers here feels more like a family. Everyone in the school helps each other. Miss Jazzy, Miss Caitlin, really every single teacher I have ever met has made me feel like home. They all know your child and love your child. Miss Wulan and Miss Ann Marie were her home room teachers and wow. These woman.. they don't make them like this anymore! Positive, loving, personal, engaged are only a few ways to describe them. They have been absolutely instrumental to Logan's growth and experience. She has thrived and become a social butterfly. These teachers never look tired and are always up beat. Ms Chrystal at the front desk always welcomes you with warmth and familiarity and never judged how many incident reports my daughter had. I was always met with comfort and understanding whenever I was worried about something my Daughter had done! And the school is owned and managed by Penny who is a GEM of a human being. These women are loving, smart, and are valued so much. They deserve the world and I'm so grateful to have found them. I'm forever in debt to this school and all it has done for myself and my daughter. Also, they know how much I love them and never once asked for a review. But if you are a nervous mom, or want an honest take, please ask penny for my number and I'd be happy to walk you through how they made this experience incredible.

From the very first visit, everyone was so friendly and welcoming. You can tell the team really loves what they do. Our main teacher is always so happy around the children, you can feel her joy, and it really stood out compared to other places we toured. All the teachers are kind and smiling, and they take the time to connect with both the children and the parents. It's such a warm, supportive environment. Literally everyone is so nice! Another huge factor for us was safety and peace of mind. As a parent, being able to drop off your child without worrying is everything, and this preschool makes that possible. The classroom ratios are low, the environment is always clean, the sign-in process is secure, and they're thoughtful about food and nutrition. We've also had no issues with recurring colds or back-to-back illnesses, which has been such a relief. All of that makes a big difference. They've also been incredibly flexible, willing to work with us to make sure our child feels comfortable, whether that means bringing a favorite stuffy from home or making food & drink accommodations. They even have an easy, healthy lunch ordering system, which has been such a plus for our busy mornings. There are always fun activities and themes planned, plus special events like Splash Days and the petting zoo! We get daily updates (naps, meal times) and photos, which we look forward to every day. Our child is always excited to go, and it's clear the other children are happy too. This location has such a cozy, close-knit feel, and the whole team is just wonderful. We're so thankful we found this place, it truly feels like a second home. Special thank you to Ms. Sydni, Ms. Crystal, Ms. Maressa, Ms. Diane, Ms. Caitlin, Ms. Jazmine, Ms. Mahjoba, and Ms. Penny, you've all made such a difference for our family

When our little guy started daycare, he was initially very overwhelmed. Assistant Director Ms. Lydia and teachers Ms. Cynthia and Ms. Jacquie worked SO hard to help him (and us) adjust and to build his comfort-level and confidence. They, along with Director Ms. Audrey, clearly care so much about the kids. Now he LOVES school. When we say "let's go to school" in the morning, he RUNS with excitement to the door, because he can't wait to go play, explore and learn. Ms. Cynthia and Ms. Jacquie run a warm, welcoming and fun classroom. They are the best! We are in awe of their lesson plans, which give the kids so much enrichment and so many fun learning opportunities. Even as a certified germaphobe with high anxiety, I feel so comfortable leaving my baby with the ChildTime Gilbert team. The facility is always very clean and well-maintained, and the staff is extremely safety-conscious, professional, responsible, and communicative. I also LOVE that we parents can always see live camera feeds of the classroom and that we get regular updates throughout the day from the teachers on the SproutAbout app: what and how much they ate, when their last diaper change was, how long they napped, and fun videos/photos of their activities. The latter is always one of the highlights of my day!

The cost was high in comparison to others. He started in the 3s room and transitioned to the 4 where his teacher (Tanya) was extremely rude and had no patience. One day I walked in the class and another kid had turned to me and said " my teacher said she doesn't like you" my son would constantly come home in the worst mood and very emotional. And cried every morning at drop off. Then he started coming home saying "ms tanya says she doesn't love me". Now I'm not sure this is a shared experience with this teacher but I couldn't no longer send my child there in good conscience. In the other hand, the cook and director and assistant director were very nice and welcoming. For the most part the other teachers he had were fine as well.

    Our Final Review After Nearly Three Years…read more There are reviews, and then there are thank-you letters. This is ours. This year, my son, Sovereign King, graduated from Primrose School of South Gilbert, and I honestly didn't expect saying goodbye to be so emotional. For nearly three years, this school has been one of the most important places in our lives. It has been where my son grew from a curious toddler into a confident little boy who is excited, prepared, and ready to begin kindergarten. As a father, one of the questions I get asked most often is whether Primrose is really worth the investment. My answer has never changed. Every single penny. In fact, if you're a parent reading this and wondering where your child should begin their educational journey, let me save you hours of research. Bring them here. Not just to a Primrose school, but specifically to Primrose School of South Gilbert. In my opinion, they are head and shoulders above every daycare and preschool I've experienced. The biggest reason isn't the curriculum, the beautiful classrooms, or even the technology--although all of those things are excellent. The biggest reason is the people. Emily Jones and the incredible teachers and staff have created something that is difficult to describe unless you've experienced it yourself. From the very first day, my son wasn't treated like another student on a roster. He was known. He was encouraged. He was celebrated. On most mornings, he would walk in saying, "Good morning! Pleasure to see you!" and every single person greeted him with the same excitement and genuine affection. Children know when they're loved, and parents know when their children are loved. There was never a single doubt in my mind that Sovereign King was genuinely cared for every day he walked through those doors. I also want to recognize the new ownership. Ownership changes can sometimes change the culture of a school, but that has not happened here. They have done an outstanding job maintaining everything that has always made this campus special. The school is beautiful, well maintained, welcoming, and professionally operated, but most importantly, they have preserved the culture of excellence that families have come to expect from this location. One of the things I appreciated most over these last three years is how Primrose partnered with me instead of replacing me. I am a very active father. We read together, practice at home, ask questions, and make learning part of our everyday life. Primrose amplified those efforts. They challenged Sovereign King academically, encouraged his natural curiosity, and helped build his confidence while giving me the tools and communication to continue that learning at home. If you're an engaged parent who wants to be involved in your child's education, this school makes that partnership easy. Watching Sovereign King grow has been one of the greatest joys of my life. He has become confident, respectful, kind, curious, and genuinely excited to learn. Of course, much of that begins at home, but I can honestly say Primrose helped nurture those qualities every single day. Great schools don't simply teach children letters and numbers--they help shape character, confidence, and a lifelong love of learning. Then came graduation. I'll admit something surprised me that day. I expected a cute ceremony with smiling children in little caps and gowns. What I experienced was something much more meaningful. As I watched every child walk across that stage, I realized this wasn't simply about finishing preschool. It was these children's first experience accomplishing something significant and being recognized for it. They learned that hard work deserves celebration, that finishing what you start matters, and that every accomplishment--no matter how small--is worth honoring. In a world where perseverance sometimes feels undervalued, that lesson is priceless. It was one of the most thoughtful graduation ceremonies I've ever attended, regardless of age. As I reflect on these last three years, I realize that Primrose gave my son far more than an early education. They gave him confidence. They gave him friendships. They gave him wonderful role models. They gave him a safe place to grow, ask questions, make mistakes, and discover who he is becoming. As his father, there is no greater gift I could have asked for. To every teacher, every administrator, every member of the staff, and everyone behind the scenes who made this experience possible, thank you. Thank you for believing in my son, for investing in him, for celebrating every milestone, and for loving him as if he were one of your own. Those are things a parent never forgets. Primrose School of South Gilbert will always be part of our family's story. Sovereign King may be moving on to kindergarten, but the foundation that was built here will stay with him for the rest of his life. From one grateful father to an extraordinary school... Thank you for helping
