Tessa
Director

My name is Tessa, and I am the Director of the Primrose School of Bedminster.  

I have a BA Degree in Early Childhood Administration. I have over 15 years of experience working with children. I love working with children because it brings me genuine joy to be part of their growth and development. It’s incredibly rewarding to play an essential role in shaping their learning experiences and helping them build a strong foundation for the future. 

During my free time, I like to travel, go on road trips, explore new countries, cities, cultures and food. I love listening to music, audiobooks, and visiting museums. 

I joined Primrose because their teaching philosophy and core values strongly align with mine. I believe in nurturing the whole child, academically, socially, and emotionally, and Primrose’s balanced approach to education supports that vision beautifully.

Assistant Director of Administration

My name is Sadia, and I am the Assistant Director of Administration at the Primrose School of Bedminster.

I have a bachelor’s degree in psychology and am in the process of getting my master’s degree in school counseling!

I have 5 years of working in early education and find this field to be very rewarding. I think it is important to provide children with a supportive environment while encouraging them to build/develop new skills. Whether I am in the classroom or at the front, my first priority is the betterment and safety of the kids. I have experience working with kids from infancy to elementary school.

During my free time, I like to go on hikes, try new foods, and read.

I joined Primrose because of how it aligns with my values and how integral it is to provide a nurturing space that not only encourages their creativity but also provides them a space to be themselves and work more into their personalities!

Ella
Assistant Director of Operations
Hello! My name is Ella, and I’m thrilled to introduce myself as the Assistant Director of Operations at the Primrose School of Bedminster.
I’m truly excited to join this wonderful community. Although I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Theater from Bard College and spent five years working as a professional actor in New York City, my heart has always been in education. Over the past 10 years, I’ve worked with children in a variety of roles—from counselor-in-training to senior counselor to camp director—and each experience has deepened my passion for developing educational programming that inspires growth and life skills.
When I’m not working, you’ll likely find me performing in local community theater productions, crafting fancy coffee drinks, or spending time with my dog, Kensington.
Primrose’s commitment to nurturing creativity, curiosity, confidence, and compassion in children resonates deeply with me. I’m truly honored to be part of this mission and to support your families.

Educational Coach

My name is Veronica, and I am the Education Coach at the Primrose School of Bedminster. I graduated from Berkeley College as a Medical Assistant. I also have my Child Development Associate Credentials (CDA) for Infant/Toddlers. My passion has always been working with kids and here I am, almost 12 years later and loving it more than ever! I have been working in the Early Education field since 2014.

I enjoy working within the Early Education field because not only does it give me the ability to make a difference in children’s lives by helping and teaching them in their early stages of development, but it also brings me so much joy and is rewarding to see my students grow every day! In my spare time, I enjoy staying active by going to the gym and shopping. I love going on walks to the beach and finding new parks to enjoy!

I am so excited to be a part of the Primrose team!

Rimple Kothari & Anjli Kothari

Welcome to Primrose Schools!

We are Rimple Kothari & Anjli Kothari – not only are we sisters-in-law, but we are the proud owners of the Primrose School of Bedminster! Between the two of us, we have three children and know first- hand how important it is to find a nurturing and trusting early learning center. For this reason, we are excited to bring Primrose to the Bedminster area!

Like most parents, we looked high and low for a school that focused on all aspects of character development and learning. We discovered Primrose Schools in 2011 when we looked for schools for our children, and instantly fell in love with all that it had to offer. We were impressed with the level of care, and education provided through the exclusive Balanced Learning® curriculum which infuses purposeful play with nurturing guidance from teachers to encourage curiosity, creativity, confidence and compassion within the children.

Years later when we got the opportunity to start our own business, we agreed that Primrose Schools was the right franchise for us to give back to the young children in the community. We truly believe that what we do matters. Our philosophy is based on the Primrose simple, yet powerful phrase. “We believe who children become is as important as what they know”. We are excited to provide children with an environment where they can grow socially, emotionally and intellectually.

We are excited to meet you and your family!

Our family would love to meet yours.
