Heather Reekie
Franchise Owner
For 25 years, I worked as a speech-language pathologist in public schools, supporting students ages three through 21 to develop strong communication skills. I then became a Casa de Corazón owner-operator in my hometown. I’m deeply aligned with Casa de Corazón’s core value of Healthy and Holistic Impact and believe that caring for the environment is a powerful way to care for one another. Outside of Casa, I cherish time with my family and I love to sew.

I have over four years of experience in early childhood education and currently work as the Center Director at Casa de Corazón. I began my journey at the center as a Preschool Teacher, where I developed a strong passion for supporting children, families, and staff. In my free time, I enjoy seasonal activities, trying new restaurants, and connecting with different cultures and communities.
Holistic Care For Your Child’s Mind, Body, and Heart™
Your child's day is designed to spark curiosity, nurture healthy habits, and grow empathy. As an NAEYC-accredited Intercultural Early Learning program, we blend Spanish and Cultural Immersion, purposeful play, and teacher-guided learning to build kindergarten readiness. With scratch-made meals, secure classrooms, and engaging routines, children feel seen, supported, and excited to learn.
A Curriculum Fostering Mindfulness and Kindness
At Casa de Corazón, we nurture emotional intelligence through the Kindness Curriculum from UW’s Center for Healthy Minds, paired with affirmations and mindfulness. Our loving educators model compassion, know every child’s name, and create connections that feel like extended family.

Programs Offered
Infant
Warm, responsive caregivers build secure attachments through songs, stories, sensory play, and daily Spanish woven into routines. Individualized schedules and consistent communication help babies feel safe, rested, and ready to explore—laying foundations for language, motor, and social-emotional growth.
Toddler
Toddlers learn in a stimulating bilingual environment with structured routines, rich play, and teacher-guided conversations that build communication and self-help skills. A clean, safe classroom and predictable daily flow support curiosity, independence, and friendships.
Preschool
Preschoolers grow through purposeful play that blends early literacy, math, science, creative arts, and daily Spanish. Small-group work and hands-on projects strengthen collaboration, problem solving, and school-ready routines using the Casa Creative Curriculum.
Pre-K
Pre-K deepens early reading and writing, number sense, inquiry projects, and social-emotional skills—all within a bilingual day designed for kindergarten readiness. Children enjoy indoor/outdoor movement, enrichment, field trips, and community experiences that build confidence and comprehension.
Part-Time Daycare
Not every family needs full-time care, and Casa de Corazón Madison makes it easy to find a schedule that fits your family’s rhythm. Our part-time daycare options give your child the same warm, NAEYC-accredited experience as our full-time program, just on a schedule built around your needs, whether that’s a few mornings a week or select full days.
Even on a part-time schedule, your child still enjoys daily Spanish and Cultural Immersion, scratch-made meals, outdoor play, and the same loving teachers who know every child by name. It’s holistic care for your child’s mind, body, and heart, sized to fit your family’s life. Request a tour or more information to find the part-time schedule that works best for you.

FAQ
Why should I choose a Spanish Immersion daycare over a traditional one?
Spanish Immersion during the first five years of life takes advantage of the brain’s most critical window for language development, strengthening neural connectivity, attention, memory, and cognitive flexibility. Research shows that children in immersion programs meet or exceed monolingual peers in school readiness while also developing bilingual fluency, cultural empathy, and long-term cognitive advantages.
Do we (or our child) need to know Spanish to start?
No. Most new families don’t speak Spanish. Our Spanish & Cultural Immersion model introduces key words and routines from day one, and children pick it up quickly. We also share simple at-home tips to help parents support learning.
Will my child be prepared for kindergarten, even if it’s English-speaking?
Yes. We use the Casa Creative Curriculum—NAEYC-approved Teaching Strategies Creative Curriculum—focused on kindergarten readiness. We track growth from infancy through Pre-K with formal assessments so children build strong language, reasoning, and comprehension skills.
What makes your program “premium” early education?
NAEYC accreditation signals high quality in safety, curriculum, and teaching practice, and it’s a distinction earned by a relatively small share of programs nationwide. Pair that with daily Spanish & Cultural Immersion, healthy routines, and purposeful play, and families get a premium child care and preschool experience.
How will I stay connected during the day?
You’ll receive real-time updates, photos, activity logs, and messages through the Casa App, plus reminders and center announcements via push notifications. It’s an easy way to follow your child’s day and communicate with teachers.
Do you offer part-time daycare?
Yes. We offer part-time daycare options at our Madison location for families who don’t need full-time care. Part-time children receive the same Spanish and Cultural Immersion curriculum, healthy meals, and NAEYC-accredited teaching as our full-time students, just on a schedule that fits your family.
