Owner
Hello, my name is Isabel Heredia.
I am so happy and proud to be part of Building Kidz, an organization that provides young children with the tools they need for a solid foundation. I am passionate about working with children and watching them grow in a fun environment that will prepare them for the world ahead.
Coming from a family of teachers, my passion for working with children came early on in life. I graduated with a BA in Psychology from Norte Dame de Namur University and hold a certificate in Montessori Early Childhood Education. I have worked in school settings since 2007, teaching and supporting infants, toddlers and preschoolers. I have also had the pleasure of teaching children and supervising teachers in play based, academic, and Montessori settings.
My husband and I have a 6 year old son and another on the way! We are determined more than ever to provide excellence in care and education for children in their most formative years.
I look forward to building a partnership with the families of Building Kidz and providing the most enjoyable experience that will develop each child’s confidence, commitment and character.

Hello, my name is Rebecca Garcia. I was born in Portland, Oregon but raised in the Philippines. After University in 2017, I moved back to the US to pursue my dream in Early Childhood Education! I love to write, to read and to listen to music. I love traveling, being outdoors and spending time with my family and friends but most especially I love working with children!
I graduated with a BA in Psychology and have been teaching since 2018 and managing and supporting our teaching team since 2020 . I have worked with both infants and toddlers in a play-based setting, and I have been a lead teacher of all the age groups here in Building Kidz!
My passion for working in a school setting is driven by my goal to help children reach their full potential as well as lead and support a team of educators in providing the best environment for our little ones. I believe that children can and will thrive if given the right tools and are guided and surrounded by a loving community.
I am very honored to be part of Building Kidz and to be your partners in your child’s development!
