“We love Primrose and had the best experience there. Our daughter attended the school from toddler to Pre-K and loved her teachers and classmates so much. The teachers were all exceptional and devoted to their students. They were kind, patient, and genuinely invested in each child’s growth and happiness.

The environment is bright, clean, and full of engaging activities that encourage creativity, learning, and social skills. Our child came home excited to share what they’d learned each day.

Communication with the staff is excellent—they kept us updated with daily notes and photos, which really put our minds at ease. It’s clear that safety, kindness, and education are top priorities here.

When our daughter started kindergarten she eased right in as she already had a solid foundation of recognizing letters, phonics, and early math (not to mention disciplined and polite behavior) thanks to Primrose.

We are so grateful for Primrose who offer an excellent before and after school program and all day care for older kids. I highly recommend this school to anyone!! Make every effort to check it out!”

“The Goddard School of Broadview Heights stands out as the top choice for early childhood education. It's more than just a daycare - it's a place where our children engage with diverse curriculums and develop confidence through meaningful relationships with their teachers and peers. We have immense appreciation for our exceptional teachers and are overjoyed with our decision to enroll both of our young kids at Goddard Broadview Heights. We are grateful to Kyle, the owner, for his outstanding leadership and for fostering a culture of love and responsibility. - The Samiei Family.”

“The Goddard School of Independence is an Amazing school ! Working in the infant room has been an absolute pleasure! Our staff here are amazing and truly work hard to ensure a safe and suitable learning environment for all of the children. The parents are amazing and very appreciative for our great nurturing skills .I’d highly recommend anyone who is looking for a great learning environment with dedicated and approachable staff to enroll their little ones here !”

“We have had such an amazing experience at Carol Nursery School! The CNS community is so welcoming, and our kids have been so lucky to have a preschool experience that truly feels like home. The teachers at CNS are great - their patience & attentiveness for their children and excitement for their classrooms is unparalleled. Could not recommend this wonderful place more!”

“Love this place! They were so willing to work with my daughter and understood that kids are kids and they don’t always have great days. Paige & her staff has been absolutely phenomenal working with my daughter and working with me on payments. Definitely recommend!”

“This kindercare is wonderful! The staff is great and attentive! I love getting the updates throughout the day about my child’s care. He’s always really happy when he comes home. The facility is clean and I feel very safe with my child in their care. I always get quick responses if there are any questions I have. I love the extra things they do like trunk or treat and Easter egg hunts! 10/10 would recommend!”

“This is my oldest daughter’s second year at wishing well, Strongsville. She looks forward to going to school each morning to see her teachers and friends. She always has such good things to say when I pick her up that it gets my second daughter excited for when she goes next year. Both years I’ve had an amazing experience myself with her teachers and if there has been any questions or help that is needed Elaine is always there to help with those as well! Nothing but happiness for my daughter and reassurance for me that this is a great school for our little ones! ?”

“Among all the other things in these highly-rated reviews, this school is also gold rated step-up-to-quality for the state of Ohio. You won’t find that elsewhere. It’s not easy to get in, but it’s obviously worth it!”

“I can’t even begin to explain how grateful I am for this place. I was so nervous to send my son to daycare but I did not have an option, as soon as I walked in I knew this was the right place. The staff was so comforting about the process. All the women who work here are amazing, they go above and beyond for the families. I moved to another city and did not transfer. I would rather make the longer drive to a place I know genuinely cares about the kids and parent.”

“When my oldest two children went to this school it was great, I absolutely loved it. By the time my third child went there it was a whole different management. My youngest went there for 4 days then they decided to kick her out because she did not fit in. Mind you, this was a 4-year-old and it was her first ever experience in a school setting. They couldn't even allow her to get used to the new environment or get settled down. They told me she needed to be evaluated for, I'm not even sure what exactly but reassured me that she was accepted at a preschool that dealt with children with disabilities and special ed. However, I quickly learned that that was all a lie. They never did any of it. When I took my child to the school they suggested I was told my daughter was perfectly fine and she just needed an exposure to a school setting. My daughter had to miss six whole weeks of what should have been her first experience of preschool before she was accepted and enrolled in a whole different School. Now she is in kindergarten where she happens to be one of the three top students of her peers. I will never forget the pain I felt. When my two oldest went there I've seen them deal with kids that had serious behavioral issues and were never kicked out or held accountable But my daughter, the one that couldn't sit still but did not cause any other problems was kicked out without a second thought.”

“The Goddard School of Macedonia is outstanding. The teachers are so sweet and caring. The owner and director are very involved and committed to making sure each child has the best experience. They have always been great at communicating and getting back to me quickly.

My daughter is learning a lot here at a young age. I am amazed at all the different activities and crafts they have the children do during the day.

Also, the school is always very clean. I highly recommend this school!”

“Kindercare does amazing with the children’s curriculum! They enjoy learning! I wish it was a bit cleaner facility, it’s not dirty just not a clean as I’ve seen other daycare centers!”

“Love the teachers in the infant room, Jackie and Sydney. Their passion for working with children and open lines of communication have made my transition from maternity leave to work easier than expected. They genuinely care for the development of my son, and have followed through with all of the requests I have made. I also appreciate their thoroughness for cleaning. Would highly recommend this facility.”

“My son started Parma Preschool in December after starting the year at another local preschool, where he had an awful experience. Since he started we've seen such a difference in him! His language has improved, he can write his name, more independent, he's learning how to handle emotions, and he's even working on his big motor skills (he always practices his balance). The school is clean with beautiful classrooms and other play areas throughout the building. They even take the kids outside on nice days. The staff is incredible with the kids, they acknowledge each child, they're friendly, and most importantly, they know how to work with this age group, and meet them where they're at instead of force them into a cookie cutter. We absolutely love this school and what they've done for my son!”

“My son went to this school at 3 years old and learned so much over the years. The teachers are so loving and have patience. My baby just graduated this year and now my 2 year old is going here. He was born in the pandemic. First he would not talk but after starting early head start he learned so quickly. He talks way more saying full sentences and I love it. He started the beginning of this year when he was 1. I highly recommend this head start to all parents.”

“My 3 children have been attending Childtime for over a year now and we absolutely love this place! Ms. Marie and Ms. Abby do a phenomenal job running this center and each and every staff member truly loves and cares for the children and it shows. My youngest daughter started there when she was just a few months old and has transitioned through each of the classrooms and we have had great experiences at each step of the way. My two oldest absolutely love their teachers and genuinely enjoys going to daycare each day. They have tons of friends and they learn so much everyday. I would definitely recommend this facility to any and everyone, we love this place!”

“I have been around to a decent amount of daycares and I have learned that daycares are about who watches the children and their attitudes towards their job and the children. I can name daycares that were bad. A lot of owners disguise their character with niceness and when you bring your kids in next thing you know they're changing and showing who they really are as though they pay you to bring your children. But this place right here is mature the teachers are mature not young (however they do have a few young ones that do a great job with my 2-year-old) and appear to be experienced they are respectful happy to be taken care of your child. I've popped up at times just to see what I can about my children and every time they are doing their job taking good care of my 2 and 3-year-old and if I do have a concern they have listened. One time I put my sons in the car his diaper was around his ankle... I brought Marie out to my car to see ...bottom line....they fired the worker immediately! This place is about the parents not protecting workers who are family members to the owners in which the owners are for the workers and not the parents and children. When I brought my son's here they would cry at first now they wave goodbye to me when I leave... If someone mistreats my three-year-old he lets me know he will turn up the minute I pull up to the daycare so if my sons loves it... I definitely love it. I even observed the ladies who handle the babies... everything is in order peaceful in this daycare. As for Marie and The Owner (who is there Everyday hands-on) I never see their personality or politeness change... they are consistent in their characters. If you want respectful people trying to do their best with your child everyday being nice and courteous to you about your children I recommend here... I'm even allowed to prepare my sons food because they are vegetarians.... I appreciate having the opportunity to feed my children myself... The owner and Miss Marie go out their way to try to accommodate and help ?”

“My oldest son went to (previously Learning Circle later changed to) Marymount Childcare Center at Jennings for almost 3.5 years and my younger son went for over a year. The teachers and staff deeply care about the children and most teachers have been with the Center for over a decade or more. The environment was safe and clean, the activities they brought home (and talked about) were interesting and creative, and the outdoor time was a great way to get out some energy. I knew my boys were safe and loved while I worked. We only had to change childcare due to our older son needing to get closer to home to prepare for Kindergarten. Otherwise, we would have stayed during the duration of their childcare needs. Check them out!”

“I love this center. Melanie and Lisa are great, all of the teachers I’ve met are wonderful. My children are treated with patience and love. My daughter is autistic and I’ve never had an issue here, they are amazing with her. I’d recommend to any of my friends or family!”

“We have had an exceptional experience at Goddard Beachwood for our infant. Great communication and wonderful/caring staff and directors. Thank you so much for providing quality childcare that we can rely on.”
