My name is Allison, and I have been working with children since 2003—a career I truly love. Over the years, I’ve gained experience in a variety of early childhood settings, including Before & After programs, nannying, Montessori classrooms with multiple age groups, and teaching Preschool and Pre-K. I hold an Associate of Arts degree in Early Childhood Education.

I have been part of the Primrose family since 2018 and am excited to begin this new opportunity at Primrose School of Wheat Ridge at Applewood. I live here in Wheat Ridge with my husband, Brian, and our two pets—a dog named Stella and a cat named Lily. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with friends, reading, and exploring all the beauty Colorado has to offer.

Hello! My name is Daniela (Dani), I was born in Brazil and moved to the United States in 2009, an
experience that shaped both who I am personally and how I
connect with families from diverse backgrounds. I have a
background in Speech Pathology, Audiology, and Early Childhood Education which has
given me a strong foundation in child development and
communication.

I began my journey in early childhood education as a
preschool teacher in 2012, and three years ago I moved into
administration. In this role, I have found great joy in
supporting teachers, partnering with families, and helping
create a nurturing, organized, and positive environment
where children can truly thrive.

Hi, I’m Brittany — a nature-loving mama who loves hiking and exploring with my two kids, Ariella and Logan. I also enjoy reading and winding down with a good book.

Hi, my name is Dibe. I grew up primarily in Colorado; I am a military brat! I’ve had many opportunities to work with children and learn with them, starting as a babysitter for my multitude of young family members, to spending ten years as a first responder–EMS and firefighter. I have been professionally and formally in the education system for several years, with experience in both Pre K and Infants. From environment to curriculum to playtime, everything is geared toward bettering the children and supporting their families; and the support and leadership for the teachers is incredible to boot. When I’m not teaching, I can usually be found writing children’s novels, crocheting, or training for a half marathon, somewhat begrudgingly.

Hello! My name is Alyssa and I moved here from California four years ago. I have a wonderful partner and two cats that love to keep me on my toes! I have always held some capacity in childcare, whether that be as an older sister to four, taking nannying jobs for very sweet children, or helping a family out after a significant life event. One of my favorite things about being a teacher is getting to foster relationships with the children and learn more about their own hobbies and interests! Outside of teaching, I love reading, playing instruments, and cuddling with my cats while drawing! I’m excited to join the Primrose community.
