When I’m not working, I love traveling, spending time with friends, exploring in the mountains or anywhere in nature, painting, photography and music. I love animals, especially dogs and my 16 year old cat, Zoey.
I was raised in Colorado and graduated from CU Boulder with a Sociology major. Then I decided while teaching preschool to get my teacher’s license at Denver University.

Then I had my two sons Henry and Benny. We all moved to South Africa and lived in Johannesburg for five and a half years. I did a lot of volunteer work with Zulu speaking children preparing them for English speaking schools. After that exciting time in our lives, we moved to California where I taught in special education classrooms and substitute taught. Now we are happy to be back in Colorado!

Owners Jon & Kim Bourgain are busy professionals who understand the demands placed on parents today and the importance of balancing work and family time. Since opening the school in 2007, they have strived to create and maintain a safe, nurturing environment for children where they can experience the joy of learning. Prior to working with Primrose, Jon owned a video production and media company and Kim was a medical sales representative. Their passion for children and education, combined with their business experience led them to Primrose. They appreciated that Primrose had been in business since 1982, had a proven Balanced Learning curriculum and was truly a school, not a daycare. As parents of two children of their own, Jared and Emma, they understand what it takes to be parents in today's world and treat the children in the school as their own. Their love and commitment to their students is evident as they interact in the classrooms and hallways each day. According to Kim, "All parents want the best for their children and we strive to create a special place that we would have wanted our own children to be when they were young. We take very seriously the decision parents have made to entrust their precious ones to our care and we strive each day to give them the best possible experience in a family atmosphere. We see first hand the children in our preschool, pre-kindergarten and private kindergarten programs learning and having fun every day!" Kim and Jon would love for you to contact them or stop by the school to learn more about the Primrose School of Longmont and the difference it can make for your family!
