Our Toddler Classroom
An action-packed day full of fun and purposeful play helps toddlers develop Active Minds, Healthy Bodies, and Happy Hearts®. We know 1-year-olds are constantly on the move, exploring and learning through play at every turn. Primrose teachers use that energy and enthusiasm to foster cognitive, social, emotional and physical skills through engaging games and activities.
Nurturing Active Minds, Healthy Bodies, and Happy Hearts

I’ve been teaching for 9 years ranging from infants through 12 year old children. But I have to say that my favorite is working with Infants and Toddlers. I have a little boy that was born in December 2022 named Demetrius and he’s the sweetest little thing. I also have a fiancé named Alex that I adore.
