Meet Cecilia Aguilar, the center director at Skyrise School of Black Canyon. Cecilia began her journey in education at just 17 years old and has spent the past 20 years dedicated to nurturing and educating children. Before joining KinderCare in 2022, she spent five years as an assistant director at another childcare center and has held diverse roles including preschool teacher, private behavioral intervention therapist, and instructional aide in a special education classroom. Cecilia holds a degree in psychology from the University of Phoenix and brings a deep passion not only for working with children but for teaching others how to do the same. Cecelia favorite quote is "Every child deserves a champion, an adult who will never give up on them, who understands the power of connection, and insists that they become the best that they possibly can be." -Rita Pierson. A proud mother of two boys—Elijah and Noah—she has lived in Phoenix for the last decade and enjoys hiking, cooking, and making memories with her family. Cecilia believes relationships are everything, and her goal is to create a center that feels like a second home, where children, families, and staff are all valued and connected.
