Rebecca Preciado

Head of School/ Leander

Hello! I'm Rebecca, a proud Austin native, devoted mother, and passionate advocate for early childhood education. For the past 13 years, I’ve had the privilege of supporting young children and their families. My journey began as a toddler teacher, where I spent ten years nurturing curiosity, independence, and a lifelong love of learning.

Three years ago, I stepped into a leadership role to broaden my impact and support both educators and families in creating meaningful, child-centered experiences. As Head of School, I remain deeply grounded in the Montessori philosophy, which honors each child's unique path and natural desire to learn.

My approach to leadership and education is rooted in love. I believe that when children feel safe, seen, and supported, they are empowered to grow into confident and capable individuals. It's a true privilege to join the Young Minds Montessori community, and I’m excited to walk alongside your family as we guide your children to learn, grow, and thrive.
