Franchise Owner
Najiyyah Crayton
Hello! I am Najiyyah Crayton, proud Franchise Owner of Primrose School of South Plano. As a Primrose parent, I am thrilled to bring the Primrose experience—offering premier early education and care—to families in the Plano community and the surrounding Dallas-Fort Worth area.
I am a proud mother of three wonderful children—two sons and a daughter. I first discovered Primrose while searching for a high-quality early education and care provider for my son, Patrick. After touring a Primrose school, I was genuinely impressed by everything it offered. From the exclusive Balanced Learning® curriculum to the warm, family atmosphere, I didn’t hesitate to enroll Patrick—and later his younger brother, Preston. Once we opened in early 2015, my sons attended Primrose School of South Plano’s Explorers after-school program and summer camps.
As a working parent, I understand the complexities of finding a premier preschool provider focusing on children’s social, emotional, intellectual, and physical development. I am deeply committed to creating a safe and nurturing environment at our school while also providing parents with peace of mind—knowing their children are in a place where they can grow their Active Minds, Healthy Bodies, and Happy Hearts®.
I look forward to meeting you and welcoming your family to the Primrose community!
