Primrose School of Geist

Hi I'm Brianna and I am from Indianapolis where I have lived my entire life. I joined Primrose Geist in 2020. I graduated from Broad Ripple High School and I have taken courses at Ivy Tech community college for Early Childhood Education. I started babysitting children in high school which is when I found my love for children. I was a nanny and I also worked at a Primrose location in Fishers for over a year.

I have a one year old daughter named Penelope and I have found so much joy in being a mother. In my free time, I love taking family walks and spending time with her. I am so happy to be a part of the Primrose family again and I am excited to spend time with your children each day!

Hi, my name is Tracey Cloud.  I was born in Sturbridge, England and raised in Lawrence, Indiana.  I am the mother of two children, a son 21 and a daughter 32.  I have a three-year-old grandson and another grandchild on the way.  When I am not spending time with my grandson, I love to spend time in my garden planting flowers and designing flower beds.  What I enjoy most about working with children is seeing those light bulb and Aha moments.  Children learn so much in the first few years, and I love being a part of it!

Hello! My name is Ms. Danel.  I am from Lafayette, Indiana originally and now live in Greenfield with my husband, Zack, my son, Xander, and my cat, Mr. Max.  I have worked with children my whole life and began working in centers in 2012.  I have my CDA (Childhood Development Associate) credential and love using my skills to help children achieve their milestones!  In my free time I love to craft and Cricut.  I refer to myself as a “Cricut Mom”, and Xander’s baby book has turned into an absurd scrapbook that weighs ten pounds!

What I enjoy most about working with children is watching them hit their milestones.  Nothing makes me happier then when a child accomplishes a new skill knowing I was able to help and witness that moment with them!
