Primrose School of Blue Valley

Hello! My name is Sasha Daniels. Although I grew up in Boise, Idaho, I have lived in Colorado the past few years while earning my Bachelors in Environmental Sociology at Colorado State University. I have worked with children for several years as a nanny as well as a preschool teacher. I absolutely love Italian food and trying new restaurants with friends and family. I am beyond excited to develop relationships with everyone in the Primrose family and help children grow into wonderful little ones!

My name is Morgan Smith! I was born and raised in Leachville, Arkansas, and recently moved to Kansas City in 2021 after getting married. I attended Arkansas State University for two years and I’m currently enrolled in Early Childhood Education college courses as well as earning my CDA. I’ve been working in Licensed Early Childhood facilities for six years now. I have worked with all age groups from fifteen months to five years. In my time away from work I enjoy spending time with my spouse and three dogs. I love cooking, going on adventures, and attending concerts! I’m excited about my new transition into this role. I’m eager to continue to grow as a leader and build connections with each family at Primrose School of Blue Valley!

I was born in Nebraska and grew up in Goodland, KS. I have a bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice from KU and have lived in the Kansas City area for 21 years. I have worked with children in many capacities for about 15 years. Six of those were at Mr. and Mrs. Amaran’s Primrose School of Leawood. My husband and I have an nine-year-old daughter who is in 4th grade. I love to read, watch movies and go to the lake with my family. I am excited to get to know the kiddos and to build a relationship with each of them!

My name is Ms.Taurean Staten! I was born and raised in Kansas City, Missouri. I received my Bachelor of Science in Education from Pittsburgh University in Pittsburgh, KS.  After student teaching in Parsons, KS, I became a substitute teacher. I have over ten years of child care experience, and have gained my experience working as a Pre-Kindergarten teacher and Team Lead at LaPetite Academy. I also worked at Primrose School of Leawood (sister location) for four years as a Curriculum and Assistant Director. In my spare time, I enjoy painting along with other arts and crafts as well as spending time with my family. I’m eager to continue to grow as a leader and build connections with each family at Primrose School of Blue Valley!
