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.

Our Preschool Classroom Teachers & Staff
Ms. Willis
Hello! my name is Aisha Willis. I love working with kids. I do not have any kids; however I do have 6 nieces and 1 nephew that I adore with all my heart. At home, I am the youngest of all my siblings. I started sewing and drawing when Covid started and I enjoy arts and crafts very much. I also love taking pictures and the graphic arts. I think my love for working with kids came from my nieces and nephew, they helped me to understand how powerful could be our impact as role models and the difference we can make on the little ones. I think it’s amazing to watch them grow and develop their own personalities.

Ms. Thompson
I’m Melody Thompson. I was born in Brooklyn but raised in Linden, Guyana. I’ve worked as an assistant teacher
for over 5 years. I love working with kids especially in environments that foster growth and individual
development. You could say my passion for teaching was inherited as my mother is retired teacher and my older
brother and sister both teach.In my free time I enjoy cooking and baking. Although my specialty is cheesecake
my favorite type of cake is sponge. I’m excited about the joining the Primrose family and look forward to
getting to know each and everyone.
