Welcome to the Primrose School of Woodbury NY.We, Shveta and Rahul Alreja, are the proud owners of the Primrose School of Woodbury NY, the first Primrose school in New York State. We are passionate about early childhood education and are dedicated to positively making an impact in the lives of children and their families in a secure and nurturing learning environment. 90% of a child’s brain is formed in their first five years, thus making these years the most formative for overall development and learning. Even prior to having two children of our own, we understood the significance provided by a strong early childcare and educational experience. After thorough research, it was ultimately Primrose’s value and promise that led us to partner with them.I, Shveta, began my professional career as an undergrad from Boston University, with a B.A. in Business Administration, Marketing, and Psychology. I worked in corporate America and India as a brand manager at Unilever. Following my stint in India, I operated a wholesale clothing business. It was after a few years of working that I realized that I was not entirely satisfied and needed a change. My brother Neel, who has autism and has been the cornerstone of inspiration for all major life decisions, inspired my next path. I decided to take a detour and pursue my M.A. in Early Childhood and Special Education from New York University. My graduate school and teaching experience in the NYC public school system proved to be gratifying, and ultimately carved this new chapter in my life.Since Rahul and I were born and raised, and are now raising our own family on Long Island, it was imperative for us to give back to our community. We were familiar with the dearth of high quality early educational programs around us, which eventually led to our decision to be a part of the Primrose family. Especially after having two kids of our own, Arya and Kavir, it became even more apparent to us to want to bring to Long Island the high-quality standards and education of that of Primrose. At Primrose Schools, all facets of a child’s development – cognitive, social emotional, physical, creative, and character development - are paid close attention to. Primrose’s proprietary Balanced Learning Curriculum masterfully weaves all learning domains in a developmentally appropriate and intentional way, and the Balanced Learning Journey builds on the teachings from grade to grade. The Balanced Learning Curriculum is time tested throughout the 400+ schools across the country, and research informed by industry experts. Every detail is thoughtfully addressed, as proven by being the first educational preschool to earn national accreditation from AdvancedED.We are excited to be a part of the Primrose family, and are looking forward to making a difference in the lives of children, their parents, and the community around us.

How Does Our Balanced Learning Approach Address Diversity, Social Justice, and Equity?

"We believe who children become is as important as what they know." That is our ethos. The core of our belief system. With our continuous mission to forge a path that leads to a brighter future for ALL children. Our Balanced Learning Approach was developed with a foundational focus to teach good character, introduced and reinforced through our Primrose Puppet Friends who represent an array of character traits we would want our children to imbibe to be good quality model citizens. This age is critical in shaping the people we become so its that much more important to teach and model the peopel we want them to become. Its never too early to start: https://www.zerotothree.org/resources/1598-racism-and-violence-using-your-power-as-a-parent-to-support-children-aged-two-to-five
Earth Day Baskets

We celebrated Earth Day in a fantastically cute way. We prepared Earth Day baskets for our enrolled families and they were a super hit! We included activities like: taking care of a plant, nature scavenger hunt, Eric Carle's The Very Hungry Caterpillar followed by a caterpillar craft, recycling (paper, plastic, metal) sorting activity with household items in paper bags, and Earth Day yoga. We dropped off the baskets to the doorsteps of our families and were greeted with beautiful pictures and videos!

Parent Informational Session - SUCCESS

We just completed our first Parent Informational Session. It was such a great experience. We were so welcomed and well-received, that we're even more excited for the journey ahead. Mongo's Coffee Shop is a brand new barista with a fabulous backstory. They were so great to partner with, and our colors against their retro, industrial roastery was a huge success. Gearing up for the next!
