Hello! My name is Lorraine W., but your children know me as Ms. Elle! Gosh, where do I start? I have a long history with Primrose and being an advocate for early childhood education. It all began in Plano, Texas, in 1994. We were the “frontier” Primrose, the first one in Texas! I was a young mother and teacher there, and both of my children graduated through the program, including Kindergarten. They moved on to their elementary schools, but I fell in love where I was; with the program, what we offered, “The Primrose Difference”, with all of my families and their children, and I decided to stay! Fast forward 10 years and our family was relocating to Franklin, Tennessee. The first thing I did was investigate the possibility of a transfer from my school to one there… if that was even an option. It was and I was over the moon!! It made leaving my home a much easier transition! I quickly settled in and began forming new bonds and relationships! After 10 years at Primrose of Cool Springs, I took a little sabbatical when I became an “empty nester”. A few years after, I became a Grandmother and had the unique opportunity to teach my Grandson at his school! When he graduated and moved on to Kindergarten in Smithville (they did not offer a Kindergarten program at his little school in Nolensville), it was time for me to come back to what I knew and loved best, Primrose! While I have had the experience of teaching at other schools, Primrose sets the bar for me, as a parent and teacher!! So glad to be back at “home” and working with your little ones each day! My Forte in the classroom is language and communication (I was an English major, so it’s my passion!), personal responsibility, and doing the right thing because… well, it’s the right thing to do! I adore children and understand where they are and what they can do! I set high expectations not only for them, but for myself as well. I want the very best for their days, to be meaningful and fun, because learning should be magical!! When I am not in the classroom, I love traveling to new places, because I think learning is always important, no matter what age or stage you are in! I love to read about everything! I love going to Titans games! Above all, I love the grace that God has given to me and my family. My children are my everything. I have so much to be thankful for and I never forsake each and every single day. I cannot wait to get to know all of you and your children!!

Hi! My name is Jordyn! I have been teaching in childcare in the professional setting since 2022, but I have been babysitting since I was 11 years old! My favorite thing about working with children is watching them grow, and see their personalities shine. My favorite children’s book is Love You Forever. My favorite holiday is Halloween, and my favorite family tradition is riding horses at my Grandma’s house in Montana, and taking the boat out on the lake with my Grandpa in Arkansas. In my personal time, I like to watch movies, read, and hang by the water.
