Our Toddler Classroom
An action-packed day full of fun and purposeful play helps toddlers develop Active Minds, Healthy Bodies, and Happy Hearts®. We know 1-year-olds are constantly on the move, exploring and learning through play at every turn. Primrose teachers use that energy and enthusiasm to foster cognitive, social, emotional and physical skills through engaging games and activities.
Nurturing Active Minds, Healthy Bodies, and Happy Hearts

Our Toddler Classroom Teachers & Staff
Quanteka Harris
Hello! I’m Quanteka Harris, and I’m excited to share a bit about myself.
I hold a bachelor’s degree in early childhood education and have spent the past six years working in childcare, where my passion for teaching continues to grow. Through my experience, I’ve developed a deep commitment to nurturing and guiding young learners as they explore and develop their unique talents. I’ve also completed several professional development trainings to enhance my skills and ensure I provide the best care and education to every child.
Currently, I’m pursuing my master’s degree in early childhood education to expand my knowledge and further enhance my ability to support children and families. I believe in creating a nurturing and engaging environment where children can thrive and develop the confidence to be their best selves.
I look forward to getting to know you and your family and supporting your child’s growth and development every step of the way!
Kat Rochester
Hi, I’m Kat Rochester! I’m originally from Camden, SC and currently living in Rock Hill while pursuing a degree in Psychology. My goal is to become a child counselor or therapist, driven by a deep passion for supporting children’s emotional and social development. I truly enjoy connecting with kids, helping them build strong social skills, and being a trusted, positive presence in their lives. I believe every child deserves a solid foundation for lifelong learning and success, and I’m committed to helping create that through care, encouragement, and meaningful relationships.
I’m CPR and First Aid certified, have completed South Carolina Endeavors training, and am currently engaged in ongoing professional development through the Primrose Schools training program. I’m looking forward to continuing to meet new faces here at Primrose and growing alongside this wonderful community!
