The Team

Rachel holds a CA teaching credential in grades PreK-12 and has teaching experience in grades PreK-5. She has four years of experience teaching in a daycare setting and taught phonics to children ages 2-6 in the Learning Adventures program. Rachel ran a large family home daycare for three years and strongly promotes a growth mindset. Further, she believes that intelligence can consistently grow, as long as one values education and has the passion to persistently keep learning. There is always more knowledge to attain, which is why Rachel holds a Certificate in Child Development, a Bachelor's Degree in Interdisciplinary Studies K-12, and a Master's Degree of Education in Learning in Technology. She persistently seeks out professional development in the realm of education and child development for herself and her staff. This is why The BBA Way! is incorporated at Bright Bubbles in Orange! The academy uniquely incorporates the trio of philosophies Montessori, Reggio, and Waldorf standing apart from other centers that may only offer one philosophy of learning. Children have multiple intelligences and prefer different modes of learning instead of a one-size-fits-all all approach. BBA's goal is to provide a targeted and meaningful education to all children based on their individuality, as children are the co-constructors of their own learning. Ultimately, Bright Bubbles Academy is just one big family!
