Our Preschool Classroom
Your 3-year-old is opening up their world, developing special friendships, learning new words and forming new ideas every day. Through purposeful play, meaningful questions and direct instruction, our Preschool teachers encourage your child to think in new and different ways. Your child will have so much fun that they won’t even realize they’re developing the skills they’ll need for reading and math.

Stacia Ali
Hi Primrose Family! 🏫✨
I’m Ms. Stacia, and I’m so excited to be part of the Primrose family! I’m a proud mother of two wonderful children, and my family recently relocated back to Texas in November 2025. I’m grateful for the opportunity to help create a caring, safe, and joyful environment where every child feels loved, supported, and encouraged to learn. 💛🌱
In my free time, I enjoy reading and journaling. I have a passion for helping children learn, grow, and build confidence in themselves. Every day, I strive to encourage their curiosity, celebrate their accomplishments, and make learning a fun and meaningful experience. 📚✨
My favorite part of working with children is watching them reach new milestones and discover the world around them. Their smiles, laughter, and excitement make every day rewarding, and I love knowing that I can play a small part in helping them grow into confident, kind, and capable individuals. 🌈💕
I look forward to getting to know each of you and partnering with your family to make this school year full of learning, laughter, and wonderful memories. Thank you for trusting me to be a part of your child’s journey—I can’t wait for an amazing year together! 🌟
Julia Saracini
Hi Primrose family! 🏫✨ I’m Ms. Julia, and I’m thrilled to share my love of learning with our amazing kiddos here at Primrose School of Plano at Deerfield. After graduating from Plano West High School and studying at Oklahoma State University 🎓, I dove head‑first into early childhood—guiding young minds since 2015 (starting as a high‑school nanny!) 👶💕
Nothing lights me up like watching children grow, discover new passions, and turn every day into a fresh adventure 🌱💡. I’m also the proud aunt to two nieces and one nephew, which means I get plenty of extra story‑time practice at home!
When class is out, you’ll find me curled up with my Kindle 📚, chatting about the latest pick in the book club I started with friends 📖☕, or soaking up time with family and my favorite people. My go‑to read‑aloud is The Giving Tree 🌳—a timeless reminder of kindness and love.
I can’t wait to learn more about you and your family and make each day a page‑turning adventure for your little one here at Primrose! 🌟💕
Deolinda Larsen
Hi Primrose family! 🏫✨ I’m Ms. Deolinda, and I’m thrilled to be part of this wonderful community! I was born in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and spent my early school years in Amarillo, Texas. Every summer, my siblings and I return to our family ranch in New Mexico, where we raise cattle—a tradition that’s very close to my heart 🐄🌾.
Although I initially studied civil engineering in college 🎓, I discovered that my true passion is teaching and shaping the minds of tomorrow. I bring over 24 years of preschool education experience, along with time spent as a substitute teacher in the public school system.
What I love most about working with children is watching them grow and develop into young adults—and sometimes beyond! It’s a privilege to be part of their journey. One of my favorite stories to share is Miss Twiggley’s Tree 🌳, which always sparks imagination and joy.
In my personal time, I enjoy spending quality moments with family and friends, cherishing those connections that keep life rich and meaningful ❤️.
I can’t wait to get to know you and your family as we grow and learn together here at Primrose! 🌟
