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

Hi! I’m Ms. Talia. I can’t wait to learn more about you and your family.

Education: I have received my high school diploma, a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology, Lead Teacher trainings, and I am currently a cosmetology student.
One of my favorite things about working with children is that it lets me reconnect with joy, creativity, and curiosity. I love seeing the world through their eyes and growing alongside them each day.
My favorite children’s book is Oh, the Places You’ll Go! by Dr. Seuss. My favorite holidays are Easter, as it is a reminder of what was done on the cross, and Christmas, which I also enjoy celebrating.
One of my favorite family traditions is summer trips to waterpark resorts.
I speak English in my home.
