Home-based after-school childcare that fosters happy and creative kids!

Green Heart Kids is a caring, nurturing and fun after school care for kids aged 4 to 12. We’re located in a home just two blocks away from Meadow Park Elementary School in Irvine, where we can pick your child up after class.


Your kids will relax and enjoy screen-free fun together through creative activities and group play. They will explore the outdoors here in our backyard of Woodbridge. We encourage curiosity and embrace hands-on learning to build a love for art and nature that can last a lifetime.

LET’S TALK!

About GHK:

Meet Rebeca:

I’m Rebeca, Green Heart Kids lead teacher and mom of 2. I have a degree in Child Development and 15 years of professional experience helping parents and kids.

I’m originally from Costa Rica and was lucky to have a childhood surrounded by nature and neighborhood playmates of all ages. Our favorite expression is “Pura Vida,” which means “pure life” or relaxed and happy living.  

As a mom, I’m concerned that kids’ lives are becoming too filled with screens and overly planned structure, so kids lose out on chances to develop both creativity and social skills. I designed my after school care program to give others the same care and opportunities I want for my own children.

Childhood is so precious and I want kids to fully enjoy being kids again. I look forward to hearing more about your child and sharing how we can help.

Pura Vida!

A few words from local moms

  • Rebeca's childcare place is a solid choice for parents. Rebeca is adept at handling kids, providing them with decent care, and keeping them occupied with various activities. The routine includes different, age-appropriate things for the kids. Every time I went to pick up my daughter from Rebeca's childcare, she didn't want to leave and asked me right away when would be the next time she can come back. This aspect speaks volumes about the positive experience she has there. It's a reliable option for parents seeking a straightforward and satisfactory childcare service.

  • For a year now, I have had the pleasure of knowing the owner, Rebeca. She is a highly skilled professional who has gone above and beyond to ensure that the children are self-reliant, while also being supportive and encouraging. I am impressed with the way she maintains a clean and healthy environment for the children to play in. Rebeca takes great pride in keeping children safe, treating my child as if they were their own and provides them with ample care. My girl loves it there, and she has many special experiences with Rebeca. She designed many hands-on activities that encouraged my daughter to unlock her creativity. She loved her time spent building Legos, making gingerbread, and baking a cake.

Ms Rebecca is a true gem with a big heart and a seemingly endless energy for fun activities. We love Ms Rebecca!
