Our Infant Classroom
We know the first year of life can have a big influence on a child’s success in the years that follow. That’s why teachers in your child’s Infant classroom provide a loving and nurturing environment as they lay the foundation for learning. This includes literacy; communication and vocabulary skills to help your infant better express their needs; gross motor skills and sensory development; and emotional well-being.
Nurturing Active Minds, Healthy Bodies, and Happy Hearts®

Our Infant Classroom Teachers & Staff
Ms. Haleigh Polen
Hello, my name is Ms. Polen and I am excited to join Primrose School of Avon’s infant program! I started my Early Childhood experience in 2019 at the Boys and Girls Club of Northeast Ohio. During my time with the Boys and Girls club, I was responsible for the planning and the implementation of program activities and assisting with membership recruitment. Upon the closure of this program, I knew I wanted to continue working with children and supporting families and was ecstatic to join Primrose! I am looking forward to continuing to grow in this field and to pursue a degree in Early Childhood Education with LCCC’s partnership program!
Ms. Sidney Lowe
Hi, I’m Sidney Lowe. I am happy wife and loving mother. I’ve been with my significant other for 16 years and married for 3 years. We have an amazing daughter who is almost 10. I have five years experience in child care and I have also worked in the medical field for almost 18 years. During those years I’ve obtained a certificate in Health Science Technology and completed my State Tested Nursing Assistance license. I recently returned to childcare and I’m so excited about the switch. My favorite thing about working with children is the joy of watching them learn and grow.
