Hi! My name is Michelle Koehl. I live here in Noblesville, IN with my husband and cat, named Ember. I’ve worked in education for over 9 years now. Four years have been in childcare and 5 years have been as an Elementary school teacher in Pike Township. I attended Hope College where I received my bachelors in Psychology. In my free time I enjoy hiking, reading, gardening, puzzling, and using my artistic skills whenever I can!

I’m so thrilled to be a part of Primrose Fishers Parkside!

Franchise Owner

Harrison and Anita Boyd

We are Harrison and Anita Boyd, the proud owners of Primrose School of Fishers Parkside. We have been blessed with three wonderful children, a sweet and fun-loving boy, Connor, an animated and cheerful girl, Savannah, and a lively little one, Henry. Our Primrose story began just before our oldest son was born when we started looking for high-quality childcare in the Atlanta area. As working parents, we recognized the value of having your child cared for in a safe, nurturing environment that ultimately feels like an extension of your home and family. We looked at several preschools and were impressed with the warmth we felt at Primrose along with its Balanced Learning® approach, as we fell in love with the curriculum, the focus on character development, and the partnerships formed with families.

When the opportunity arose to open a Primrose school in Anita’s hometown of Indianapolis, we knew we wanted to give families the peace of mind that comes from knowing they are doing the best thing for their children and deliver the amazing Primrose experience we had as Primrose parents ourselves. We opened Primrose School of Geist in 2018, and that love for what Primrose offers has only grown stronger through our experience. We are so excited to have the opportunity to continue to bring high-quality early education and care to our community.

Anita earned her undergraduate degree from Indiana University before moving to Atlanta to earn her doctorate in physical therapy from Emory University. Harrison attended Auburn University for his undergraduate degree in architecture and Georgia State University for his master’s in real estate. We met through mutual friends in Atlanta and spent 11 wonderful years there but are thrilled that this opportunity brought us to Indy to raise our family and be part of this great community!

Who children become is as important as what they know is a belief that is at the core of our Balanced Learning® approach. 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 are passionately committed to providing the highest quality care and education for our own children as well as yours. We invite you to see first-hand what differentiates Primrose School of Fishers Parkside from the rest and look forward to meeting you and welcoming you into our Primrose family!

Our family would love to meet yours.
