Our Infant Classroom

We know the first year of life can have a big influence on a child’s success in the years that follow. That’s why teachers in your child’s Infant classroom provide a loving and nurturing environment as they lay the foundation for learning. This includes literacy; communication and vocabulary skills to help your infant better express their needs; gross motor skills and sensory development; and emotional well-being.

Hi, my name is Yaritza, but you can also call me “Miss Iza.” I’m so excited to be part of the team here at Primrose.

I have been working with infants and young children for over 9 years.

I love to create a fun, safe, and nurturing environment where children can learn, explore, and grow at their own pace.

Hi, My name, Mariana Marilu Tito and I am so excited to be part of Primrose Family as an teacher helper. I’m a mother of five great boys. Some of the things I love to watch a good romance movie, take a long walk to let some of my ideas come together, and take care of my grandsons (7 in total).

I can’t way to see all the new activities and program I will learn by being part of the Primrose Family. I will not only put in parties the activities that I learn in the school but will also use it on my own grandsons. Learning and helping kids develop is my passion and will never stop.

Infant 2 Teacher

I’m Alicia. I have had the privilege of working with preschool children since 1993 when my daughters were preschoolers as well. In October 2001 I was awarded the Child Development Associate (CDA credential) by the Council for Professional Recognition. In February 2005 the State of New Jersey Department of Human Services Office of Licensing recognized me and awarded me a group teacher approval certificate.

 

My favorite part of working with children is that it gives me satisfaction to see how they progress from day to day. One of my favorite children’s book is  “If You Give a Mouse A Cookie” written by Laura Numeroff. In my personal time I like to relax at home, spend time with my grandchildren, have time alone and spend time with my husband.

Infant 3/Young Toddler Teacher

Hello, my name is Jasmine Frazier and I am happy to be joining the Primrose School of Morristown as a Toddler teacher. I graduated from Union County College with an Associate’s degree in Liberal Arts and Early Childhood Education. I have worked with children of all backgrounds at the Boy’s and Girl’s Club of Union County. I have also shared my passion for people through working as a caregiver for Home Instead Senior Care.

 

I love working with children because each day brings new opportunities. Just like plants, children need someone to be patient, kind and passionate about their growth. “Plant the seeds of kindness and watch them sprout” is a philosophy I observe each day. In my downtime, I love to watch court shows and CSI. I also have a new found love of fragrances.
