Rajesh and Anjana Bhakta

My dear friends thank you for your interest in Primrose School of Wichita West. We are thrilled to provide the very first premier educational child care option to Wichita and the Andover area families, featuring an all-inclusive program for infants through pre-K students, and an after school program for children up to age 12 as well. Parents of twins, the desire to find the best care for our own children quickly developed into a passion to provide an educational and nurturing environment for all children in our community. During our search for child care for our twins (at that time around 2 years old) we came across Primrose Schools and decided to visit a few of these schools. We were pleasantly overwhelmed by the safe and clean environment and the unique deliverance of the curriculum. I was so overjoyed that the experience literally brought tears to my eyes, and we knew we had to bring Primrose to Wichita. I truly believe that receiving a quality education by the influence of positive role models in the first five years, will set the foundation for your child’s future. We are committed to making a positive difference in the lives of children in our community. We look forward to meeting you!

Our family would love to meet yours.
