Franchise Owners
Anna and Gaurav Sharma
Welcome to Primrose Schools!
We are the proud owners, Gaurav and Anna Sharma, of Primrose School of Chapel Hill at Briar Chapel!
We moved to the Research Triangle Park area six years ago from the UK. We fell in love with the community and decided to make it our home. When searching for child care for our daughter, many of our friends highly recommended Primrose Schools and we quickly learned about the strong reputation the brand holds. We were impressed with how well thought out and designed every element of the Primrose environment was from the classroom layout to the curriculum.
As parents, we have experienced the challenge of finding the right school for our children and we understand how difficult and emotional this process can be. We toured many local preschools in the pursuit of a safe and nurturing environment for our daughter, and we felt the Primrose curriculum resonated with us the most. Now, we have seen the positive impact a Primrose education has on children.
At Primrose, we believe who children become is as important as what they know. Our exclusive early learning approach balances purposeful play with nurturing guidance from teachers to encourage curiosity, creativity, confidence and compassion. We deliver more than a curriculum; it’s a life-changing early learning experience for children and their families.
We enjoy meeting new people and we love to spend our free time with our children and dog or at the gym. We are excited to meet you and your family!
