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.

Hi Primrose family! 🏫✨ I’m Ms. Yahira, and I’m so excited to be part of the amazing team here at Primrose! With seven years of babysitting experience under my belt 👶💛, I’ve always loved helping little ones grow, laugh, and discover the world around them. There’s nothing better than seeing their personalities bloom and those sweet little smiles every day!

I’m originally from a proud family with roots in Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico 🇲🇽, and I love spending summers visiting and soaking in the culture. I have two older siblings and adore my goddaughters, Eliani and Natalia 👧👧—they keep life fun and full of love!

When I’m not in the classroom, you’ll find me reading a good book, watching my favorite shows (New Girl, Criminal Minds, The Office, How I Met Your Mother, and Psych) 📚📺, or enjoying Marvel movie marathons in order (of course!). As an introvert, I also enjoy quiet time at home, but I never say no to a fun outing at the Dallas Aquarium, the Museum of Art, or a local park. My favorite colors? Pastel yellow and navy blue 🎨💛💙.

One of my favorite stories to read with the children is The Very Hungry Caterpillar 🐛—a fun and colorful journey that always sparks curiosity.

I can’t wait to get to know you and your little one and help them learn, grow, and thrive here at Primrose! 🌟

Hi Primrose family! 🏫✨I’m Ms. Teasia, and I’m so excited to be part of your child’s learning journey! I’m currently pursuing my Bachelor’s Degree in Business at Paul Quinn College (Class of 2027). 📚✨

In high school, I was proud to serve as the captain of my volleyball team 🏐, which helped me grow as a leader and team player. I’ve also gained over 3 years of experience in childcare, and it’s truly become one of my biggest passions. 💕 Nothing brings me more joy than seeing children smile, grow, and explore the world around them with curiosity and excitement. 🌟👶🏾🧠

In my free time, I love creating fun TikTok videos 🎥, dancing to my favorite songs 💃🏽, playing volleyball with friends 🏐, and spending quality time with my family and loved ones 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦.

I truly love what I do and can’t wait to get to know you and your amazing family! 💕 Let’s make this a joyful and memorable experience together!

Hi Primrose family! 🏫✨ I’m Mrs. Cecelia, and I’ve proudly called Primrose School of Plano at Deerfield home since 1993—longer than any other teacher on campus! 🎉 With 20+ years of early‑childhood experience, I still light up each day watching our kiddos explore, wonder, and grow. 🌱💕

Though my hometown is Plano, Texas 🤠, I was born in beautiful Sri Lanka 🌺, and the values I learned there shape how I teach and care for every child. Mother Teresa inspires my heart for service, and my father will always be my hero. 💖👨‍👧

The magic of the Primrose curriculum keeps my passion fresh, and the daily connections I share with our students and their families make this work truly special. When I’m not in the classroom, you’ll usually find me curled up with a good book 📚 or enjoying quiet time to reflect and recharge.

I can’t wait to partner with you and your little one and keep building a joyful, nurturing space where they can learn, laugh, and thrive! 🌟

Hi Primrose family! 🏫✨ I’m Ms. Netra, and I’ve been part of the Primrose School of Plano at Deerfield crew since 2022. With 10+ years of child‑care experience under my belt, I feel right at home guiding our older toddlers as they explore everything, every single day 🌟👣.

Nurturing little minds and hearts is my happy place—nothing beats watching our kiddos learn, grow, and light up with new discoveries 💡💕. Their curiosity keeps every moment fun, and I love knowing the trust you place in us helps them blossom.

I earned my GED 🎓, and my favorite story to share is ABC, I Love You 📚—perfect for cuddles, giggles, and learning letters together. When class is out, you’ll probably find me shopping 🛍️, relaxing with a good read (especially my Bible) 🙏📖, and soaking up quiet moments to recharge.

I can’t wait to learn more about you and your family and create joyful memories with your little one here at Primrose! 🌱💕

Hi Primrose family! 🏫✨ I’m Ms. Blue (Rounag Jahan), an older‑toddler teacher who first joined Primrose back in May 2015. With 15+ years of child‑care and teaching experience, I’m thrilled to be part of our Deerfield crew, guiding curious little explorers every day. 🌟👣

I grew up in Dhaka, Bangladesh, graduated high school there, and later entered the medical technology program at Everest College in Ottawa 🎓🔬. Those studies sharpened my love for science—something I weave into playful lessons whenever our toddlers investigate the world around them.

Nothing lights up my day like the beaming smiles of children discovering something new. Watching them learn, grow, and giggle makes every moment in the classroom pure joy 💕. After school you’ll often find me curled up with a Dr. Seuss book 📚 or catching the latest super‑hero movie 🎬🦸‍♂️—stories of imagination and bravery that inspire my teaching, too.

I can’t wait to get to know you and your family and share many happy, wonder‑filled moments with your little one here at Primrose! 🌱💕

Our family would love to meet yours.
