“We have had multiple kids attend Oakcrest Rivergate over the course of 5+ years through daycare, afterschool, and summer camp. All of our children have thrived and exceeded our expectations for learning and development. They generally came home happy every evening and were excited to return to Oakcrest the next day. We are very happy with our Oakcrest experience and would gladly recommend it to any other prospective parents.”

•Staff: the life force of the place. Friendly, passionate, and attentive

“We are so fortunate to be able to enroll our son at FOD Baxter! We toured quite a few centers and were always indecisive until our tour at FOD Baxter. Ms. Christine at the front gave us a tour and reassured us our son would be in good hands. Her calm, gentle and nurturing ways carry across to the classrooms and she helped ease our son the first few weeks of daycare especially during nap time which was a hard transition for him to acclimate to.

Ms. Amanda and Ms. Kaylie have been amazing teachers and my husband and I always feel reassured when we leave our son at FOD. You know if the teachers have genuine love and care for children when your own kid cries to go back to daycare! Our son gets upset if he has to miss a day and is always so happy to go back.

Ms. Amanda has a great rapport with all the kids in her classroom and you can see how each of them gravitates to her. She's always doing fun activities for them during academic/learning enrichment time and provides updates throughout the day.

Our son Loves Ms. Amanda and is always so happy and excited to see her in the mornings. She has such a natural way with kiddos and it's easy to see why every kid loves her. Her kind and warm smile immediately puts a crying kid at ease.

Even though my son isn't in Ms. Kaylie's class anymore he still gets happy and excited to see her when they are all out for outdoor playtime and I know she gives such great attention, care and warmth to all the kiddos in her class. She gets in on the fun with the kids herself.”

“The infant room teachers go above and beyond. Our baby is always smiling at drop-off and pickup, and we can tell he’s loved and well cared for. Couldn’t ask for a better start to his daycare experience.”

“We absolutely love Kiddie Academy of Fort Mill! The teachers are incredibly caring and attentive, making our son feel safe and happy every day. The activities are engaging and educational, promoting both fun and learning. Feel at home here. Highly recommend!”

“Thank you to Fort Mill Cooperative Preschool and all of the staff for inviting us to the zoo field trip! It was such a special first experience for my little one. The trip itself was quite a distance, which made it even more meaningful that everything was so well organized and thoughtfully planned. It was a wonderful way to connect with the staff and some of the families.

One of the most meaningful parts of the experience was seeing the parent involvement in action. While it was the parents leading and supporting the group, Ms. Skyler’s natural connection with the children, her energy, and her presence stood out. It was truly special to witness the level of trust and bond between the staff, and children. ?????? There is even a mini farm and a few gardens at the school.

What makes Fort Mill Cooperative Preschool unique is how they encourage and create space for that involvement. Through field trips, events, and holiday celebrations, they build a strong, connected environment for both children and families.

We especially love Ms. Emmy and Ms. Skyler. ???? The owner, director and the Fort Mill Co-op family-staff have truly changed school for my son.

A huge thank you to Ms. Szilvia Fillmore, the on-site Clinical Art Counselor, who is also affiliated with Thrive Family Services. Through her support and collaboration with the staff, my son has grown in his ability to identify and communicate his needs and emotions. The tools and materials she brings into the classroom were something we didn’t even realize we were missing at previous schools.

This is truly an incredible school, with strong values and a genuine commitment to each child’s growth and development. We are so grateful for your thoughtful and engaging approach to learning. ?????”

“We cannot say enough great things about Carolina Kids! The entire staff is amazing and truly cares for the children as if they were their own.
Our daughter has learned and grown so much since starting in September, thanks to the wonderful teachers she's had, including Miss Iris, Miss Retchel, and now Miss Bree. My daughter is excited to go to school every morning.
We also love the warm welcome we receive every day from Sam and Marah. Seeing them greet every child by name as they walk through the door shows how much they genuinely care about each student and family.”

“Went here over 20 years ago as a young kid, the staff back then was incredible and I’m sure they just as are now. The water park here is the OG! Lots of great memories. I’m sure lots has changed over the years but this is a long standing local business! Highly recommended :)”

“As a parent it’s such. Relief to know that my child is in a loving and safe environment while I am at work. VMPS facility is spotless, well organized and filled with learning materials. Great place for kids”

“I am pleased to highly recommend Primrose School of Fort Mill to parents seeking a versatile and nurturing environment for their young children.

As a grandparent of two girls currently enrolled—one four years old and the other nine months—I have witnessed firsthand the exceptional care and dedication provided by the staff. The teachers in the toddler classroom demonstrate remarkable skill and patience, fostering both learning and joy in their students.

Equally impressive is the infant program. Miss Barbara, in particular, exemplifies attentiveness and genuine care, ensuring that each child receives individualized attention and comfort. Her commitment to the well-being of the infants is truly outstanding.

In every respect, Primrose School of Fort Mill has exceeded expectations. The professionalism, compassion, and quality of education offered make it an excellent choice for families. I wholeheartedly recommend this school to anyone searching for a safe, supportive, and enriching environment for their children.”
