Ms. Nicole
Ms. Kaasandra
Hi, I’m Kaasandra, but most families and friends know me as Ms. Kaas! I’ve been in early childhood education for over four years, with the last three years spent growing with Primrose Schools. For the past two years, I’ve had the opportunity to serve in leadership, which has truly helped shape my passion for supporting both children and the incredible teachers who care for them each day.
As the HR Director, my heart is creating a space where our team feels supported, valued, and set up for success. I have a strong love for organization and structure, but what matters most to me is caring for people, making sure both our teachers and children feel seen, heard, and truly cared for.
Outside of school, I’m a proud mom of three two boys and one sweet girl. My youngest is part of our school family and will soon be stepping into the toddler world, which makes this place even more special to me.
I’m so grateful to be part of a community where I can pour into others every day, and I look forward to building meaningful connections with each of you.

Hi, i’m Matthew Moreland. I started working at Primrose School of Hickory Creek in 2019 as the Explorers Teacher, in 2021 I left to pursue my career in the culinary world and found myself working at a nice hotel in Southlake. I worked there for 4 1/12 years, working my way up to the Banquet Sous Chef role. and after moving back up to Corinth in Novemeber of last year I was looking for something closer to home, and when I saw that Primrose was looking for a new Chef i thought it was perfect! I loved my time here in 2019-2021 and now to be able to combine that with the culinary world I also love seemed like a dream. I look forward to crafting healthy menus that the children, parents, and staff all love, and I look forward to being a part of the Primrose Family again!
