Leah Retamozo, MA, CEO & Founder
Leah Retamozo is the CEO and Founder of Bilingual Child Care & Education Center. She is fluent in Spanish, with Bachelor’s degrees in Spanish and Latin American Studies and a Master’s degree from the University of Minnesota’s Comparative International Development and Education (CIDE) program within the Department of Educational Policy and Administration. Before opening the Center, Ms. Retamozo worked in fund development, communications, and planning for a variety of nonprofit Latino organizations in the Twin Cities as well as for St. Paul Public Schools.
"Since I opened the center in 2010, I have worked intentionally and deeply committed to building a community of families and educators who partner to raise confident, kind, smart, bilingual kids. Unlike impersonal chains and franchises, that are all about the ongoing growth of multiple locations, our TWO centers are focused on EXCELLENCE in a small setting. I value authenticity, relationships, and doing what we do WELL! You will notice our attention to detail in every aspect of our programming, including healthy meals and snacks, and our beautiful attached natural playgrounds that are second to none! Our TWO early learning centers in Roseville and Mahtomedi are joyful, colorful, and full of singing, laughter, and learning!
