Schools near Grandview Heights, OH

“All of our teachers at Goddard Grandview have been excellent for over the past 4 years for our 3 kids. We know they were well cared for and loved everyday. They were prepared for kindergarten with social and academic skills.”

“So, let me start off by saying that never once did I consider putting my children into daycare. Unfortunately back in 2021 my children lost their father and I had to make things happen. So I had no other choice .. I can say just speaking with Admin was comforting. You could tell that they care about the safety and wellbeing of every single child. The first day my children started I was still a little nervous but I was able to keep tabs on them through an app and that put me at ease. Once my girls came home and was so excited to go back the next I felt a great deal of relief. My girls are still attending and we still love it. The teachers have fun educational activities for the kids, everything is documented (bathroom breaks, if they ate etc.) I could honestly go on and on about this amazing place we won't be going anywhere else ever. I want to thank the owners and directors they are all amazing keeping things so organized and controlled. There are many classrooms and different age groups with THE BEST teachers. My kids love them to death and will go on and on about them. Nothing but positive things for this center I hope these teachers are as appreciated as they should be. I recommend this place to everyone. Such a caring, diverse, understanding and supportive Daycare.”

“Throughout the 5+ years, all of the staff have always been very nice and professional. My kids have learned SO much, beginning in the infant room even! Both of my kids learned sign language at just 9-10 months old, and were able to communicate their needs to us using sign. The curriculum is very well thought out and planned. The provided lunches and snacks are always nutritious and enjoyed by our kids. There’s not anything I could think to improve with Primrose!”

“We chose Primrose Schools for mainly 2 reasons the accessibility to my work also downtown and the curriculum for its students. But we quickly realized there were so many other reasons to love Primrose schools, especially including its staff. The teachers are so personable, professional, and confident. They can command a classroom and respect the kids at the same time. My kid has been going to primrose for about 2 years and in that time, he has learned to walk, talk, and express opinions. The teachers have commented on how much he's grown and how fun it has been to watch. I have to give a special shoutout to Ms. Morris, Ms. Patrick, and Mr. Blake for always being above and beyond teachers during this time.
I have been impressed with the programs and curriculum Primrose has provided. My kid comes home telling me about electricity and recycling, or how plants grow or about a story they read in class every day. He thrives in their academic environment. Primrose has been such a support in my parenthood journey and I would recommend it to anyone who needs an elevated daycare experience.”

“Where do I even begin?
My son has been at Creative Child Care since he was just 6 months old, and from the very beginning, the experience has been nothing short of incredible. I have watched him grow, learn, and truly thrive in an environment filled with warmth, creativity, and care.

The teachers and administration are not just educators—they are extraordinary people who pour love, patience, and dedication into everything they do. They’ve played such an important role in my son’s early development, and for that, I am forever grateful.

He genuinely loves going to school every day. He talks about his friends, lights up when he sees his teachers, and comes home excited to share what he's learned. As a parent, there is no better feeling than knowing your child is happy, safe, and supported.

Creative Child Care has been a second home for him—and a huge part of our lives. Thank you for everything you do. You are truly making a difference.”

“We are so happy we made the switch to Goddard. We feel like part of a community and that our son is part of their family. I feel very comfortable leaving our son in their hands.
He always comes home happy and very well cared for! They do so many amazing activities for the kids. We feel very fortunate to have our son here.”

“Such an assuming place at both locations. Clean professional, knowledgeable and a wonder environment for any child. Owner and Director are both very experienced and it is obvious!”

“From the moment you walk through the doors, you’re greeted by a staff that genuinely knows and cares for each child by name. That personal touch makes a world of difference. The owners are not just figureheads—they’re present, engaged, and just as welcoming as the rest of the team.

The teachers are fantastic communicators, keeping parents informed and involved every step of the way. And speaking of involvement, the tools and resources available to parents to check in on their children throughout the day are truly second to none. It’s clear that this school prioritizes transparency, safety, and connection.

If you’re looking for a nurturing, professional, and well-run early education environment, this Goddard location sets the bar high.”

“We’ve had a wonderful experience with Primrose School of Hilliard Mill Run! One of the things I appreciate most is how attentive and conscientious the staff are when it comes to my child’s allergies. They have clear processes in place to ensure my child’s safety, and it gives me so much peace of mind knowing they take it seriously. The communication is excellent, and I always feel informed and supported. It’s clear that the team truly cares about each child’s well-being. Highly recommend!”

“We’ve had experience in the infant room all the way to the preschool room - they truly treat my children like family. A friend with older kids suggested a couple of years ago and we’ve never looked back! The set up and schedule promotes interaction, development, and play. We are moving out of state and will miss everyone here! For two working parents the hours are great and there are barely any days we have to find coverage as there is no winter or spring break.”

“Clever Bee is one of the best centers I have seen in a long time.Very clean and safe environment for everyone's little ones.I have been telling all my friends to choose this place for child care!”

“I have had my children for more than 2 years and both the owners and the staff are very special to everyone. The little ones are given classes to be able to enter kindergarten without problems.”

“We have had a great experience at Goddard. I enrolled my child 2 years ago when we moved to the area and she has loved it every day. The staff are super friendly and always smiling. Even the teachers who haven't taught my child know her and say hi to her when they see her. Admin is responsive to questions. There is a sense of community among the families there too. We are very happy we enrolled our child here.”

“After an unfortunate experience at a previous daycare, we were anxious about finding the right place for our son. Thankfully, Goddard has been everything we hoped for.

From day one, he was welcomed with warmth, structure, and care. He has absolutely thrived in this environment emotionally, creatively, and intellectually. The growth we’ve seen in him over the past year has been remarkable. He’s now confident, curious, and fully prepared for kindergarten, thanks to the strong foundation Goddard has helped build.

The staff is consistently friendly and communicative, keeping us in the loop on everything from curriculum updates to daily highlights. The teachers are nurturing, creative, and truly understand child development. They bring out the best in each child and create an environment that feels both fun and purposeful.

We’ve also felt completely at ease with the safety and cleanliness of the premises, and tuition is very much in line with other high-quality programs in the area.

Choosing Goddard has been one of the best decisions we’ve made for our son’s early education. We’re so grateful for the experience and recommend it wholeheartedly to other families.”

“We couldn’t be happier with Avery KinderCare Center! From day one, the staff has been welcoming, professional, and genuinely caring. It’s clear that they truly love what they do, and that makes all the difference. All of our children feel safe, happy, and excited to go every day — which, as a parent, is the best feeling in the world.
The teachers are attentive and nurturing, always encouraging creativity, curiosity, and kindness. Management is out of this world, Ms. Corinne and Mr. Scott truly make this place feel like home! They go above and beyond.
Avery KinderCare has become a second home for our kids, and we’re so grateful to the entire team for creating such a warm and enriching environment. Highly recommended to any family looking for high-quality child care!”

“Our daughter started at Play & Learn last year when she was just 12weeks and we are so thankful for the staff here! They take excellent care of the children there and are excellent at communicating with parents about any developments or issues that arise. 10/10 Recommend Play & Learn!”

“This center is filled with people who love your children as their own. They learn about each child as an individual and figure out how to support them based on what makes them tick. We had a wonderful experience with this team. They were very kind empathetic people and always available to support us as a family.”

“I've been taking my two kids here for over 9 years. I really respect the staff and how Ms Halie and Ms T. care for my kids and every other child. I do not worry when my kids are in their care. I also love Ms. Karen and Ms. Monica too. My kids have been here since there were little babies <3 e”

“Our daughter has been very comfortable and happy at Goddard. We couldn't ask for more. Alex and Drew also pay attention and give us as parents comfort in knowing our child is in good hands.”

“Very friendly and responsive. They have an excellent summer camp with something to do and somewhere to go every day. Would recommend to anyone. Professional with a personal touch.”

“We have been going to KinderCare at RidgeMill for almost 3 years now. We got the recommendation from our friends who have been going to KinderCare for both of their children. We have 1 child, who started at 12 weeks in the infant room and are currently in the toddler room. It has been an amazing experience.

All teachers throughout each room have been attentive, caring and nurturing. As having an only child, the transitions from each room were our biggest fears. However at each stage they take the time and effort to help our kid smoothly transition with minimal fuss. They take the time to get to know each and every kid and tailor each experience personally. We really feel like our child is treated like family. The new director specifically has grown with our child from the beginning, starting as their infant teacher and moving to assistant director, and now director.

We can wholeheartedly recommend RidgeMill KinderCare for all new parents, and seasoned parents alike.”

“Its a great place for my kids to go everyday, they learn and are in good hands. I feel they have good leadership and the infant teachers for my baby have been amazing!”

“When faced with the difficult decision to move our 3 kiddos from a leading competitor, we researched and toured many local facilities before ultimately deciding on Primrose as our new school. We are SO thankful we did! Ally (director) and Renee (assistant director) were incredibly thorough in communicating the what’s and how’s of the school to us. no questions were left unanswered before our enrollment date. Their follow-up and engagement prior to day 1 was professional, genuine, and warm. Once enrolled, they took the time to get to know each one of our kiddos. This included our oldest (1st grade) who will be attending summer camp but has not attended yet.

Our youngest 2 (21m & 37m) had been at their previous school since birth. They were rooted and flourishing with strong bonds to their teachers and friends. We were extremely worried their transition would be rocky. Quite the opposite happened; thank God!

The teacher in Early Pathways (Ms. Deepika) welcomed our youngest with empathy and extra snuggles. Within 2 weeks, our baby girl no longer cried at drop off and runs to Ms. Deepika as soon as she enters the classroom. Seeing Ms. Deepika’s face light up with genuine love and care for our baby warms our hearts!

The teachers in Preschool Pathways (Ms. Jet & Ms. Scarlett) helped our 3 year old go from avoiding the potty at all costs to potty trained within the first 4 weeks! This is in addition to holding him at the window every.single.day. to wave bye to us in an effort to help him adjust to his new surroundings. Ms. Jet has now become a household name when he names his “best friends”. She is a valuable asset with her patient, consistent, and steady care for our son and his classmates.

Our prior school did not provide diapers, wipes, or meals; only morning and afternoon snack. Primrose provides lunch along with 3 snacks a day. Not having to think about bringing diapers and wipes (Pampers brand) is so helpful too. They value parent engagement and a holistic family approach to care with cookie Friday, take home family meals, parent’s night out (6-10p!), and themed days.

While we never wanted to leave our previous school (communication issues with ownership, not staff), we are so grateful and thankful Primrose quickly embraced us and made us feel like family. We are home <3”

“My child is new there for the summer and has only been attending for a few weeks now but I just have to shout out this center as a whole! It is a night and day difference to the center we had our child at last year. The staff is attentive to the kids, prioritizing fun and safety instead of sitting on their phones. Miss Olivia is my child’s favorite teacher. She is always friendly and engaged with the kids when I pick my child up at the end of the day.”

“Tasherra the director is extremely welcoming and reassuring. My child has been going to kinder care for a few months and they love being there. The teachers are great and update the parents about every meal and activity they have done throughout the day. As soon as the kiddos walk in the facility they wash their hands. The staff always greets you with a smile.”

“Definitely recommend Kindercare on Norton Road. My child looks forward to going to school everyday! He loves the teachers and playing with friends. Anything from circle time to crafts to playing on the playground, is a favorite. I love that their app keeps you updated on their day and even sends pictures. I feel that the children are loved and safe here. Summers are so much fun! Thanks for all you do, Kindercare ?”

“In the two years my daughter has attended NWCCC, she has grown and learned so much! The staff truly care for each child, are dedicated to early childhood education and development, and connect with parents through frequent updates and pictures. My daughter especially loves chapel time, and as a parent I am confident that the teachers are incorporating faith-based learning into the classroom, as well. I highly recommend Northwest Christian Childcare Center!”

“We love Kiddie Academy in Dublin! Our daughter started there at 13 months old, and now she’s 2. She absolutely loves her teachers and friends. The perfect blend of learning and fun makes this center truly special. The teachers are attentive to every detail, and we trust them completely with our precious little one.

A special shout-out to the teachers: Ms. Sushama, Ms. Narmada, Ms. Prasanna, and Ms. Vanitha, who have made our daughter thrive every day.”
