Franchise Owners

Sotirios & Estela Papadopulos, & Estefania Papadopulos-Teixeira

We are Sotirios and Estela Papadopulos, and Estefania Teixeira proud Franchise Owners of Primrose School of First Colony.

We first discovered Primrose Schools while searching for childcare for our daughter, Estefania Teixeira. We were busy with the demands that came with operating our own business and we wanted to ensure that our daughter was being well cared for and it was also important to us that she receive quality education. When we learned about Primrose Schools and what was offered, we immediately knew we had found something special and so both of our children, Estefania and Alexandre, ended up being Primrose graduates. Our experience with Primrose inspired us to offer leading education and care to families in the greater Houston area. Fast-forward 20 years later, Estefania obtained her Masters’ degree in Business Administration with a minor in psychology at the University of St. Thomas while our son, Alex, is a professional racecar driver in the GT4 European Series allowing him the opportunity to compete in races all across Europe. His positive demeanor and “never-give-up” attitude have left nothing but good things to be said by all whom Alex has worked with in the car racing world.

Today, we are the proud owners of six Primrose School locations throughout greater Houston. Our excitement continues as we are dedicated to bringing the best possible early education and care to families that live and work in the communities we serve. We are committed to creating a warm and nurturing atmosphere in our schools that enable children to exercise their active minds, healthy bodies and happy hearts.

Our latest big news and with the utmost pride and joy, we are so happy to welcome our “once-little” Primrose daughter to continue our legacy and what we believe Primrose to be. Since Estefania officially joined the team, she has displayed grace, warmth, and a passion for creating a positive influence for any and all children who step into our schools. She is dedicated to supporting all six schools so surely you will see her around to welcome you with a smile!

Finally, thank you for your interest in our school. We are beyond delighted to have the opportunity to provide (what we believe to be) the best early education and care to the youngest citizens of Sugarland. We can’t wait to meet you and welcome you to our Primrose School of First Colony family!

See What Families Are Saying

Our family started our journey to find a daycare for our daughter after a in-home provider became ill and unable to care for children in her home anymore. We look around at several centers and right away the Primrose of First Colony was the most warm and welcoming of all of the facilities we visited. I had to take my 1 1/2 year old daughter with me for the tour and she immediately started playing in what would be her classroom and didn't mind at all that I left to tour the rest of the school. We were hooked - lower class sizes, inviting people at the front office, and caring, trained teachers! That was over three years ago and our daughter has moved from EPS up through the program to Kindergarten. We have since had a son and have started in the infant room to now starting in EPS again this year. We absolutely love the school and all of the staff! They put the kids and thier education and safety first. Anytime we have had concerns that staff are always willing to stop what they are doing and make us feel like their sole priority and address any needs we might have. Whether we have a sick child, allergy needs, anything - Primrose of First Colony has always made us feel completely at home and that our kids have recieved the best possible care. We appreciate the values that the Primrose company stands for and really care about all of the wonderful staff at Primrose of First Colony because they take such good care of our children in everything that they do.
Anthony the after school program I am so happy to have found you guys :-)
I could not be more pleased with the exceptional care and quality of the eduational experience that my grandchildren are receiving from their Primrose School. Mr. and Mrs. Papadopulos, the owners, are committed to providing the best for the children. The management, Mrs. Barrera and Ms. Schannon are professional, caring, and knowledgable. The teachers are caring, patient, and fun while providing a solid educational experience. I enjoy the parades and fun events the school provides and love looking at the pictures on Facebook when I cannot attend an event. The best part about my grandchildren attending the Primrose School of First Colony is when they share with me all of the new things they have learned at their school. Bravo and thank you to all of the professionals at Primrose!!
