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
Ms. Gutierrez
Hello! My name is Ms Gutierrez! I am the Lead Young Toddler Teacher. I have always loved working and teaching children of all ages and I have two children of my own! I love all things Disney and we are a huge baseball family, so I love the Houston Astros! You can find us eating Mexican food all the time from tacos to caldo, you just cannot go wrong with any! Personally, I love being a big goofball with the children, especially if it means making learning more FUN!
I cannot wait to meet you all!
