Franchise Owners

Paige and Zachary Berg

Hi! We are Paige and Zachary Berg, the proud owners of Primrose School of Sioux Falls at Heather Ridge. As parents, we understand how difficult it can be to find both a safe and educational environment that provides the exceptional level of care we expect for our most precious gifts. We are beyond excited to be a part of the Primrose family and to share this amazing school with the Sioux Falls community.

Unable to find quality childcare for our son due to extensive waitlists, we took matters into our own hands. Having family members that had sent their children to Primrose Schools in other cities, we had seen what childcare should look like. When we couldn’t find what we were looking for, we decided to build the Primrose School of Sioux Falls at Heather Ridge.

Paige previously worked in the healthcare industry and Zach serves the Sioux Falls community as a dentist. We are amazed by Primrose’s outstanding approach to education, the accredited curriculum, enrichment, and character development programs.  Sioux Falls is our home, we live just down the road, and we are excited to see our neighbors attend Primrose School with us. We’re active owners and take great pride in bringing an exceptional academic program to our community. We look forward to meeting you and to Primrose exceeding your expectations.



Our family would love to meet yours.
