Welcome to Primrose School of Tampa Palms! As long-time residents and blessed parents of three grown children, we understand how important it is to find a preschool that feels safe, nurturing, and aligned with your family’s values. We’ve walked alongside many parents in your shoes searching for high-quality early education that supports both academic growth and character development.

For over 26 years, we’ve been deeply involved in our children’s education and have worked passionately with youth through various ministries and community programs. Deanne spent a decade homeschooling our children, driven by a desire to provide personalized learning and a strong foundation. That same commitment to individualized care and meaningful learning is what drew us to Primrose.

When Deanne first toured a Primrose school, she immediately felt at home. The Balanced Learning® approach blending purposeful play with nurturing guidance; resonated with our belief that who children become is just as important as what they know. Deanne holds a National Director’s Credential and brings her experience as both an educator and a parent to every decision we make.

Rob’s background in corporate sales leadership and community development has shaped our commitment to service. He holds a Master of Divinity, is ordained, and has led youth ministries and educational programs for many years. Rob also holds a National Director’s Credential and shares our vision of creating a safe, joyful, and enriching environment for every child.

We know families in Tampa Palms value trust, transparency, and a preschool that partners with them in their child’s growth. That’s why we’re dedicated to building a school where children feel loved, supported, and inspired every day. One of our favorite Primrose principles is “Approach each day with joy” and we truly live by it.

We’re honored to bring our life experiences, faith, and passion for education to this community. Together, we’re committed to “Forging a Path That Leads to a Brighter Future for All Children.”

Warmly,

Deanne and Rob Fitzpatrick
