Our Preschool Classroom
Your 3-year-old is opening up their world, developing special friendships, learning new words and forming new ideas every day. Through purposeful play, meaningful questions and direct instruction, our Preschool teachers encourage your child to think in new and different ways. Your child will have so much fun that they won’t even realize they’re developing the skills they’ll need for reading and math.

Alex Enriquez
It’s so good to be back!
My name is Alejandra Enriquez and my friends call me Alex. I was born in Mexico and moved to Texas when I was 8 years old. I have 2 wonderful teen boys that keep me busy with soccer and extracurricular activities. I was part of the Primrose family for about 5 years, wearing many hats during my time here. I ventured out to work for the school district, and I am super excited to be back at Primrose School of Lantana. I absolutely love to teach Pre-K and I’m thrilled to be part of such an amazing team! I love spending time outside, I enjoy dancing and going to the gym, running 5Ks for fun with friends and family, and crafting!
Jillianrose Urquidi-Juarez
Hello! My name is Jillianrose; I also go by Jillian, and I’m from El Paso Texas. I graduated from Texas Woman’s University in 2023 with a bachelors in Social Work. I am currently working towards a graduate degree in Education with a concentration in Autism Intervention! I have been working in childcare since 2021. My experience ranges from preschool to working with individuals in special education. In the future I want to have my own daycare/preschool that offers a space for all students, both with and without disabilities.
In my free time I enjoy painting, coloring, reading poetry books and playing with my Chihuahua, Cricket. Any chance I get I love to go back home and visit and spend time with my family. Some of my favorite holidays are Halloween and Christmas.
I am very excited to be a part of the Primrose Lantana team and join these kiddos on their early education journey!
Andrea Netto
Hi there!
My name is Andrea, and I am originally from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. I moved to the US in early 2020 due to my husband’s job transfer. I have been married for 32 years and have a 29-year-old son and a 24 year-old-daughter. My family and I also lived in Mexico for four years, when I seized the opportunity to study and learn about its culture.
I have worked as an early childhood teacher for more than 20 years, but Education was not my first career choice. I started a major in Engineering, but switched and got my degree in Business Administration. It was not until I had my kids that I realized what really fulfilled me; nurturing children and helping them develop their skills is my passion. I am currently working towards my Master’s degree in Neuroscience.
My hobbies include reading, crafting, taking care of my plants, and spending time with my family.
I feel so blessed for having found Primrose of Lantana and being welcomed by leadership, children, and their families.

Hello, My name is Larissa! I’m so excited to be here at Primrose Of Lantana! I have previously worked in childcare for a year as an Infant teacher and Young toddler teacher. I have also been babysitting my nieces and nephews for a few years now. My favorite part about taking care of children is watching them grow as well as creating a comforting environment for them. I have lived in North Texas my whole life. My family is from Mexico so I do love to visit, and I enjoy spending time with them. I am excited to meet and learn about your little ones!
Amanda Reid
Hello! I’m Amanda Reid, and I’m so excited to be a part of the Preschool team here at Primrose School of Lantana! I graduated from the University of North Texas in 2025 with a Bachelor of Science in Education with specializations in early childhood and English as a second language. I have previously taught in Kindergarten and 1st grade classrooms and worked as a music teacher in a day school.
In my free time, I’m usually watching football (Go Texans!) or hockey (go Stars!), baking, or playing video games. I also love road trips and have been to 47/50 states with my family.
I’m so honored and excited to return to early childhood education and to help your children learn about and explore the world!
