Franchise Owners
Jennifer and Dan Fu
Like many Primrose Schools franchise owners, Jennifer and Dan Fu were first introduced to the school as parents of a happy student. Originally living in Columbus, OH, Jennifer and Dan discovered Primrose when looking for childcare options for their son. It wasn’t long before the Fu’s fell in love with the Primrose School of Dublin and its approach to education. As a parent new to child care, I was surprised by how quickly I felt comfortable dropping my child off at Primrose, said Jennifer. The staff quickly won me over, and the whole experience had such a positive impact on my family. Noting Naperville’s renowned emphasis on family and education, Jennifer and Dan relocated to the area to open a Primrose School of their own in 2009. In August 2012, the Fu’s accomplished their goal of providing the very best child care options for area families with the opening of the Primrose School at Naperville Crossings. The Fu’s children were the first students enrolled. We know what parents expect and deserve when it comes to their children’s care and education because we’ve gone through it, Jennifer said. What really drew me to Primrose is that they consider all aspects of character development and provide the foundation to foster a love of learning. Jennifer is onsite at the school daily, meeting parents and students, helping the school’s director manage the curriculum and ensuring that daily operations reflect the quality promised to their Primrose families. Opening the Primrose School at Naperville Crossings is a dream come true for us, and we are thrilled to have the opportunity to share our passion for early childhood education with the community, said Jennifer.
