    I wanted to take a moment to introduce myself and welcome you to Primrose School of Griffin Parc. My name is Amy Walker and I am the School Director. I am thankful to get the chance to be a part of a positive early education program that strives to set a foundation for lifelong learning.

    Valued Team Member since 2017!

    Hello my name is Alana Crocker and I am the Assistant Director here at Griffin Parc. I have been at Primrose Griffin Parc since July 2017 and in the child care business for over 25 years. I have worked at several Primrose Schools around town, but Griffin Parc is definitely one of my favorites! I have been a Infant, Young Toddler, Early Preschool and Preschool teacher before moving up to management as an Administration Manager, communication manager and now Assistant Director. I have loved all my job titles but I love being in management and meeting all the families and all the children. I have tried the corporate world for a couple of years but always came back to childcare. My passion is children and making personal relationships with each family I meet.

    When I'm not working, I am spending time with my husband and our 3 beautiful children, Cade, Mia and Lily. We love to sing in the car, watch movies and hang out with our family and friends as much as we can!

    I am so blessed to work at this amazing school with teachers and owners I love. I love the fact that I get to bring my children to work with me everyday and that they are getting the best education. I believe in what Primrose teaches and can attest to the commitment they promise.

    I can't wait to meet you!

    Education Coach

    Valued Team Member since 2009!

    My name is Michelle Craig, I’m the Curriculum Coach here at Griffin Parc. I’m a proud graduate of a phenomenal HBCU Texas Southern University where I attained a BS in Administration of Justice. But in 2009, I quickly fell in love with teaching and being a part of this amazing work family! Seeing children thriving and laughing while learning has always been close to my heart. Those little people have only been on this earth for a short time, but they teach me something daily. For the past 12 years, I’ve taught in the toddler room and enjoyed every second of nurturing those precious minds.

    Family means the world to me; I’m the oldest of 4 girls and an Auntie of two amazing children. My parents and the rest of my family are a constant motivation and a never-ending well of love that I will forever cherish. In my spare time, I enjoy shoe shopping, reading, spending time with family, and participating in anything art related.

    As the Curriculum Coach, I’m blessed to interact with teachers, parents, children, and fellow management team members. It’s my firm belief that every day is a chance to help enhance learning while developing a love for education; and that makes me smile.

    But what truly sets the Gebhardt’s’ schools apart are their commitment to families and their ability to recruit, develop and mentor the best leadership teams in the industry... Building on a strong foundation of 30 years leading people, the Gebhardts’ invest in, empower and inspire School Directors, leadership teams and teachers to serve families in ways that are personal and one-of-a-kind – just like every child. They have created a culture that emphasizes great people, servant leadership and exceptional service at the highest standards.
