Welcome to Primrose School of Bothell!

Meet Pankil and Lipi Patel. The proud co-owners of Primrose School of Evergreen in the California Bay Area and the proud owners of Primrose School of Bothell – the Patel’s are excited to become full time residents of the Bothell community and share the premier educational Primrose experience with families across the Seattle Metropolitan area.

After marrying in 2008 and being blessed with their daughter Pearl in 2013, Pankil and Lipi began looking for high quality childcare that they could trust. The struggle to find a facility with which they felt comfortable, resulted in Lipi choosing to stay home for the first three critically important years of Pearl’s life. Lipi understands that not all families have that option and is genuinely thrilled to offer a safe and nurturing “home away from home” experience for our future generations.

Pankil and Lipi were first introduced to Primrose Schools by their uncle, a proud Primrose owner. When they saw the Primrose Schools Balanced Curriculum® in action and realized first-hand how the program naturally instills curiosity and a love for learning in children, they knew that they had found an environment in which their daughter could thrive. Within that environment, they also found a community of educators and fellow parents committed to the same values of holistic learning that they were.

Coming from a business development and management background, Pankil naturally wanted to bring the Primrose Experience to other communities. Pankil knows and understands the value of entrepreneurship and hard work. Once a motel desk clerk, Pankil quickly learned the value of excellent customer service and guest satisfaction. He coupled his life experience with hospitality management, resulting in his co-ownership of number of hotels establishments.

Lipi, who met her future husband while finishing her own degree in hospitality management is used to working side by side with her husband. After taking a break from her ‘nine to five’ career to care for their daughter Pearl, Lipi is eager to return to their partnership and help build an Early Childhood Education Center which will positively impact their new community.

“The Primrose core value that “Who children become is as important as what they know,” aligns beautifully with our own beliefs that children need guidance on these most important life skills,” says Lipi. The character development program is at the heart of Primrose Schools and is embedded into daily experiences for children, helping foster social and emotional skills that will influence their development for life.

After attending Primrose School of Evergreen this summer in California, Pearl is excited to move to Washington and share her own experience with other families.

Welcome to Primrose School of Bothell, where children play, learn and grow!

See What Families Are Saying

I love that Primrose is very engaged. They celebrate all holidays and honor all cultures. The quality of the education my son receives is high. The teachers and staff are all friendly and caring. The teachers' love for the job really shines through.
We've been at Primrose for roughly 6 months now and have nothing but good things to say. The entire staff including the owners know my daughter by name. They are incredibly kind and understanding. Before Primrose my daughter had only been in daycare two days a week. She has adjusted to Primrose and was happy to be there within three days of moving her there. They do lots of special events and fun activities for the kids and my daughter is thriving under their care.
The communication and commitment from the teachers to the parents is amazing. Leadership has a great outward focus for parents, and you feel like you have the opportunity to address any questions you may have. Overall, the experience of the commitment of the teachers to our kids has been amazing.
