Our Preschool Pathways Classroom
Our Preschool Pathways program provides a “bridge” between our Early Preschool and Preschool classrooms for children whose birthdays will ultimately miss the cutoff date for kindergarten entrance. By identifying those children early, we can help them stay with a consistent group of peers through preschool, pre-K and kindergarten.

I’m Ms. Daija, and I would like to tell you a little about myself. I am from Virginia and worked with infants and toddlers for about a year before coming to Primrose.
I am the oldest of 8 children and have 4 brothers and 3 sisters. In my free time, I love to teach, dance, draw, and paint. Working with children is great because each day brings new things, and I feel like the kids teach me something new every day. I feel lucky that the children in my care, as well as their parents, trust me to bring them joy and make them feel loved throughout the day.
