Mrs. Lindsay
Hello my name is Lindsay Petraglia! I am 25 years old and have been married to my husband for about 2 years. I am currently a senior at Kennesaw State University pursuing my elementary education degree. I love to paint and explore nature. I also enjoy trying new foods! My husband is an amazing cook and I love trying new restaurants.
I first knew I wanted to become a teacher in elementary school when I had the most amazing 5th grade teacher. She encouraged my love for art and I also want to be a part of encouraging students in their passions. I am excited to be a part of the Primrose team where we truly make a difference!
Ms. Tanya
I am a proud mother of three wonderful children—an 18-year-old son and two fun-loving daughters, ages 7 and 6. Being their mother is one of my greatest blessings and a constant source of inspiration. They keep me busy and bring so much joy to my life. Originally from New York, but I’ve been in Georgia for the past 12 years and truly feel at home here. From a young age, I’ve always had a heart for teaching. Working as a Substitute and Assistant Teacher has deepened my passion for helping students and confirmed that this is exactly where I’m meant to be. I love being in the classroom and seeing kids grow, learn, and succeed. Outside of work, I enjoy spending quality time with my family and friends. My faith and my family are at the heart of everything I do, and they guide me in both my personal and professional life. They are a big part of who I am
