Executive Director Rebecca Rhee
I am the owner of After the Bell Inc.
I have worked with children of all ages, including infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and school-age children for over 10 years. Every child is born with different curiosity, capabilities, characteristics, and talents. Having the opportunity to assist these children and see them grow is both rewarding and enjoyable.
The goal of our program is to treat all children with respect, to provide them with a nurturing environment that meets their needs and allows them to explore their interests in a positive, stimulating, and nurturing environment.
Providing this kind of guidance to a child helps them become successful and happy adults.
I am looking forward to meeting you all.
