Hi, I’m Mandy! I bring over 27 years of experience working with children, including six years teaching first grade, seven years in kindergarten, and 14 years of in-home childcare. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education from Bob Jones University.

What I love most about working with children is their enthusiasm—it’s contagious and inspires me every day! My favorite children’s book is Woolbur, and Christmas is my favorite holiday to celebrate.

One of our family traditions is having dinners together every Tuesday, which is a special time to connect. At home, we speak English and share our lives with a cat named Honeybee. In my personal time, I enjoy reading, making baby blankets, and baking.

I’m excited to bring my experience and passion to your child’s learning journey and look forward to a wonderful year together!

We are proud to have Ms. Seema as one of our experienced Pre-K teachers! Since 2018, she has been dedicated to guiding young learners through one of the most important stages of early development.

Ms. Seema holds a bachelor’s degree in Business Management but found her true passion in early childhood education. She finds joy in helping children grow, reach developmental milestones, and build the foundation for lifelong learning.

Her favorite children’s book is Are You My Mother?, and she loves the Christmas season. At home, her family also celebrates Diwali, a festival that brings light, love, and tradition into their lives each year.

Ms. Seema speaks Hindi, Kannada, and English, and she brings a rich cultural perspective and inclusive spirit to the classroom. When she’s not teaching, she enjoys spending time in her garden, nurturing plants just as she nurtures her students.

We’re so fortunate to have Ms. Seema as part of our Pre-K team!

Ms. Mercy has been passionate about working with children from a young age, starting with babysitting and volunteering at camps when she was just 13 years old. She holds a Bachelor’s degree in Educational Studies and is excited to bring her knowledge and enthusiasm to the classroom each day.

Her favorite part of teaching is seeing the joy on children’s faces when they accomplish something new, and she loves creating a positive and supportive environment where every child can thrive. One of her favorite children’s books is No, David!, which always brings smiles and laughter to story time.

Outside of school, Ms. Mercy enjoys reading, going to the gym, taking walks, and watching movies. At home, she speaks both Japanese and English, and she has a playful Goldendoodle named Stella who keeps her busy and entertained. She especially loves celebrating Christmas, her favorite holiday.

Ms. Mercy is thrilled to be part of the Primrose at Pelham family and looks forward to building strong relationships with students and families throughout the year.

I have been teaching children of various ages for about five years, and I am also a proud parent to three wonderful children of my own. My experience in both professional and personal settings has deepened my love and appreciation for working with kids.

What I cherish most about working with children is getting to know their unique personalities and seeing their faces light up with smiles and hugs. It’s truly rewarding to be a part of their growth and development.

Some of my favorites include The Little Red Hen, Halloween and Thanksgiving, and our cherished family tradition of watching The Nightmare Before Christmas—my sister and I never miss it!

At home, I speak English, and our family includes one lovable cat named Eve. In my personal time, I enjoy watching movies, playing video games, and doing fun activities with my daughter.

I am passionate about creating a positive and engaging environment where children can thrive, explore, and have fun while learning!
