Our Early Preschool Classroom
Many 2-year-olds want to do everything by themselves. And why not? It’s their way of experimenting and learning to understand the world. Early Preschool teachers provide a safe, nurturing environment where your child can explore and stretch their talents to the fullest all while building self-confidence. Your child will have fun every day as they play and learn important academic skills, social skills and more.

Our Early Preschool Classroom Teachers & Staff
Ms. Koczan (A)
Let’s get to know each other.
I’m Ayanna Koczan. I wanted to tell you a little about myself.
I am a wonderful mother of 2 boys ages 9 and 4. I love being creative and trying different and new things. I am very loving and caring. Silly is my middle name. I love to be/act funny around the kids because they love it! I love taking walks on different trails and spending as much time with my handsome boys as I can. Before I came to Primrose Smyrna West, I was an Infant lead teacher at Primrose Macland Pointe for about 3 years. Teaching is something I’ve thought about since I was very young. The thought of teaching younger children warms my heart. They get comfortable with me easily and I love seeing them grow and learn so much and become very independent. In wouldn’t change being a teacher for anything! I love working here at Primrose Smyrna West!
