Hello, my name is Mrs. Achabou, and I am delighted to be a Pre-Kindergarten teacher! I bring over 10 years of experience working with children and families and have a true passion for creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for every child. I earned my Bachelor of Science in Secondary Education in French (K–12) from École Normale Supérieure des Enseignants in Algeria, my home country. Before moving to the United States with my family, I taught high school for a year, and since then I have continued to dedicate my career to early childhood education.

Outside of the classroom, I love spending time with my family, crocheting special pieces for loved ones, painting, and reading in multiple languages, including Arabic and French. I look forward to getting to know you and your children this year. Together, we will build a joyful classroom community filled with learning, laughter, and care.

Hello! My name is Mrs. Alcantara, and I have been working with children since 2020. As a certified teacher from Brazil, I am passionate about helping children learn, grow, and thrive in a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment.

I am married and have an 8-year-old daughter, along with a fun-loving dog who keeps our family active and entertained. In my free time, I enjoy spending quality time with my family and exploring the outdoors.

I am excited to be part of the Primrose community and look forward to building meaningful relationships with the children and families in my classroom!

Hi! My name is Ms. Hill, and I grew up in San Jose, California. I spent 8 years doing competitive gymnastics and later went on to coach gymnastics for 6 years. My love for working with children started early when I volunteered in my mom’s Deaf and Hard of Hearing preschool classroom. Through that experience, I became fluent in sign language and developed a passion for connecting with and supporting children in meaningful ways.

I’m currently attending medical assistant school here in Austin and am excited to continue learning and growing while working with the children at Primrose!

Hello! My name is Mrs. Padmore. I have been married for 26 years and have 2 children, Maleek – 22 & Mila – 13, and 2 fur babies Amber and Autumn!  My passion for Early childhood Education started back in 1999. Over these past 25 yrs of experience, I have had many roles including being a director.  I truly love teaching Pre-K and providing the children with a safe and nurturing environment.  I’m so excited to teach your child and watch them grow!

Hi! My name is Ms. Headen, and I am a proud Austin, Texas native. I have lived here my whole life and enjoy traveling and spending time with my family. I attended college to study veterinary science and have always had a love for animals and agriculture. I participated in FFA and raised pigs and chickens for several years. Agriculture is something I am passionate about, and I hope to share that love and knowledge with the children I teach. In my free time, I enjoy cooking, crafting, shopping, making soap, and spending time with my friends and family. I am definitely a food lover and enjoy a good burger, seafood, or chili dog! I enjoy thinking outside the box and bringing together different ideas to create something even bigger and better. I am excited to share my creativity, passions, and experiences with the children and families at Primrose!

Hello, my name is Mrs. Matoska! I am married to my wonderful husband, Alan, and we have three children, Dawson, Mitchell, and Lilly Belle, along with our four crazy dogs: Cheby, Link, Pixie, and Thrall. I grew up in three main cities—Beaumont, Austin, and Round Rock—and I currently live in Hutto, where I absolutely love the community and surroundings. I have worked in childcare for 12 years, but my experience working with younger children began even earlier as a teenager through Girl Scouts and my church. I currently hold my CDA, specializing in children ages 3–5, and I hope to continue furthering my education and expanding my understanding of children and their development. In my spare time, you will often find me doing crafts or working on jigsaw puzzles. However, most of my “spare time” is spent at the baseball fields, supporting my own children and volunteering with Round Rock Baseball League. I can’t wait to have so much fun learning, exploring, and growing with the children at Primrose!
