I've noticed a few negative reviews here from frustrated parents, which is unfortunate. While I…read morecan't speak to every individual situation, I do want to share that our experience at Primeron has been one of the VERY BEST we could have ever hoped for. In particular, the director, Kaela, has been responsive, approachable, and genuinely invested in building strong relationships with families. She has taken the time to listen to concerns, make herself available when needed, and even helped establish a parent partnership group (similar to a PTO), which has been a meaningful way for families to stay engaged and connected. Like any organization, occasional issues may arise, but in our experience, the leadership team has handled matters professionally and with care. Some concerns (such as those related to voucher programs) may be tied to broader administrative systems rather than the on-site leadership. I have great relationships with many family members, and have never had issues making my payments, via the Daycare Family Works app. We can tell that Kaela and the leadership team prioritize and value family partnerships: this is why they have connected parents together through family days, created summer camps, spirit weeks, and a parent partnership group. I plan to be a part of the Primeron family until my child ages out! Overall, we feel supported, valued, and confident in the care our child receives. We appreciate the dedication of the staff and leadership team and are grateful to be part of this community.

I will start by saying that the teachers and staff are absolutely amazing. They were incredibly…read morekind and worked well with both of our children. We had them enrolled in the Primeron for almost two years and never had a bad teacher. The rating is purely for the administration. Before the Primeron got acquired by Cadence Education, we never had any issues with the administration. We used a military subsidy and the director and assist director were always very transparent and helpful. After the acquisition, there was a change in directors and at the end was Kaela. I have never dealt with a more unprofessional director in all the schools my children have been in. Maybe she didn't agree with how the center was run prior to her arrival but saying to a parent that they were "lied on" and that the old admin "played in your face" is completely unacceptable. My main issue was when we unenrolled our youngest. Our subsidy payments were always late and as such we usually got back paid. Not an issue except when we unenrolled and had to get the credit refunded to us. I originally asked the assistant director to get our refund in the form of a check instead of original form of payment. This was because the original form of payment was a paid off credit card. We were informed only the director could initiate the refund as a check. It took weeks for us actually speak to the director as emails were not replied to and she was supposedly never in when we call. It took even longer to receive this refund and at the end, it was refunded to the paid off credit card instead of as a check like we asked. There was also disagreement and confusion as to what the refund amount was. We were different numbers from the subsidy, the admin at the Primeron, as well as a different number than what showed on our online account portal. While there was confusion and while we acknowledged that this was not anyone's fault, the director accused us of looking for more money than we were owed. We repeatedly informed her that there would be another subsidy payment and that was the reason the number we had was higher (we did not know that it had not been sent at the time). I asked that they informed us when this payment came through. All of that happened in September of 2025. Come February 2026, I called to get tax information. It was a surprise when we got our account summary and saw that we had an account credit of $1000. As it turns out, the Primeron had received the final subsidy payment in December of 2025 but made no attempt to let us know. Had we not asked for our tax information I doubt we would have ever found out. Through this process I asked to speak to a higher up, such as an area or regional manager, since the director barely returned emails or phone calls. This request was repeatedly ignored. Throughout emails, she only ever addressed half of the issues. For example, in our most recent conversation she focused on the fact that she was not in control of how fast we got our refund. When in reality the issue was the lack of communication and rudeness when we asked for updates. The way the director had addressed our family had been absolutely unprofessional and rude. It is unacceptable to accuse us of trying to get more money when we were asking for the credit we were owed. Furthermore to not notify us of the positive balance in our account for months after they received it. Again, the teachers and childcare workers are superstars and we loved how they were with our children. I wish I could use them again for care such as summer camp as it was an amazing experience for my children. It is a shame that their hard work is overshadowed by a rude and incompetent administration. All of my grievances have been relayed to the director but other families should be warned. I doubt that we were the only ones who had these issues. If you are a current family, double check your accounts and get your money.

On the occasional morning when our toddler decides she does NOT want to go to school that day, I can usually hear her tears turn to laughter before I even leave the building. Separation anxiety is normal in small children, and the guides at Guidepost know what they're doing! We enjoy their frequent, clear communication as well as their hours, campus equipment, and the various specialty activities that they offer such as a yearly Saturday pool party or pajama days. If you're in the market for a daycare or preschool that will teach your child(ren) REAL life skills such as cleaning up after themselves as well as subjects such as math, science, and reading, Guidepost is the school for you.

I had 2 children enrolled for the past 2 years and have been blessed to interact with all the staff in the different programs from Nido to Childrens House. They are all absolutely wonderful, especially the Director Caroline and the Assistant Director Liza. Staff go out of their way to assist with difficult transitions and they even show up to birthday parties when invited! I was a sceptic of the Montessori based curriculum but after seeing my kids make huge progress, love learning and teaching us things they learned, and really THRIVE, I am an avid believer. This place is more than a childcare center, this is an extension of family/friends that I truly trust to care for my children. It has been an amazing experience.

She started when she was just 2 years old, and as an only child, she has flourished in ways I never imagined within just one year. The facility is super clean. Cleanliness is so important for preschoolers, and Goddard takes it seriously. But it's not just the space that's clean--the staff are cheerful, professional, and genuinely happy. And happy caregivers mean happy children. If you're a parent who sometimes struggles with "mom guilt" like I do, you'll appreciate that Goddard provides a real breakfast. Not just a snack, but a hearty morning meal. It takes the pressure off when mornings don't go as planned and you missed breakfast that morning. Goddard is not a daycare--it's a preschool. I didn't fully understand the difference until my daughter started here. The teachers are amazing, the leadership team is respectful and professional, and the owner is warm, approachable, and lovely to speak with. When I moved to the area, I toured more than a dozen childcare facilities, and while many were just "facilities," none came close to the level of care, professionalism, and joy at Goddard Gambrills.
