I welcome you to my second school, Primrose School of North Potomac! My husband, Mrugesh, and I are proud parents of two amazing children. We deeply believe in the importance of early childhood education and are thrilled to bring the Primrose experience to families in the North Potomac area.
After the success of our first school in the Silver Spring area, I am excited to expand our impact by opening my second Primrose location in North Potomac. Bringing high-quality early childhood education to even more families has been a dream come true, and I look forward to continuing to serve our community with passion and dedication.
My journey with Primrose began after completing my bachelor’s degree and spending the past two decades in the business world. I knew I wanted to do something that not only utilized my experience but also allowed me to give back to my community in a meaningful way. Finding Primrose was the perfect opportunity to combine my passion for education with my background in business, making a lasting impact on children and families. After my husband and I had our children, we were surprised by the lack of premier early childhood education options in the area. Research shows that the first few years of a child’s life are crucial, they shape a child’s health, growth, learning, character, and ultimately their happiness. Finding a premier option that provided both high-quality education and care was critical to us. Realizing that other families must have felt the same way, I began researching and soon discovered Primrose Schools. I immediately knew it was the perfect fit.
At Primrose, we believe that who children become is just as important as what they know. Our exclusive early learning approach balances purposeful play with nurturing teacher guidance to encourage curiosity, creativity, confidence, and compassion. We deliver more than a curriculum—it’s a life-changing experience for children and their families.
All of us at our school look forward to meeting you and your family!

Our First Trunk or Treat Celebration!
What an amazing time we had at our very first Trunk or Treat! Seeing our children and families come together, sharing smiles, laughter, and special memories, made this celebration unforgettable. We can't wait to make even more wonderful memories in the years to come!
🍂 Fall fun is in full swing! 🍁
Our preschoolers had the best time tossing, catching, and playing in a sea of colorful fall leaves! Experiences like this are more than just fun—they give children opportunities to explore nature, build coordination, practice cooperation, and engage their senses through hands-on play.
Sometimes the best classroom is right outside! 
📚 From Our Bookshelf...
After enjoying Little Cloud, our Early Preschool class explored the story through art, giving children the opportunity to express their ideas in their own unique way. ☁️🎨
Connecting books with hands-on activities helps make stories memorable while encouraging creativity, conversation, and a love of reading.
From Scribbles to Success ✏️
Fine motor skills develop through meaningful, hands-on experiences. In our Toddler classroom, children are encouraged to explore tools like crayons and pencils as they strengthen hand muscles, coordination, and control.
This developing pencil grasp is an exciting milestone that builds the foundation for future drawing, writing, and creative expression.
Hand in Hand, Growing Together
Friendships begin long before children can explain what a friend is. In our classrooms, simple moments like walking hand in hand help children build trust, confidence, and the social-emotional skills that support lifelong learning.
Learning Through Light ✨
Even our youngest learners engage with the concepts of our Balanced Learning® curriculum through hands-on exploration. By experimenting with light, shapes, and movement, infants begin making connections about the world around them in developmentally appropriate ways. With thoughtful guidance from their teachers, everyday discoveries become meaningful learning experiences.
Healthy Bodies Start with Healthy Meals
Healthy bodies start with healthy meals. Our fresh, on-site menu features colorful, nutritious foods that help fuel a full day of learning, playing, and growing.
First Masterpieces 🎨
Creativity begins long before children can hold a paintbrush. Through sensory-rich art experiences, our infants explore colors, textures, and cause and effect while strengthening the fine motor skills they'll use for years to come. Every fingerpainted masterpiece is a celebration of curiosity, creativity, and joyful discovery.Frequently Asked Questions
