Sophia Zamor Santa

Founder & Managing Director

Sophia is an Industrial Engineer with 20 years of experience in 6 countries. She managed the innovation and marketing for the Huggies, Pullups and Goodnites Brands for Latin America for several years and learned so much about babies and toddlers! She spent 11 years managing our family business in Haiti.

She found her true passion for education when her two sons started their schooling, and was elected Vice-president of the school board of the French School in Haiti. She spent five years working with families and the French Staff to provide the highest quality education for over 600 students.

Founding KLA in 2013 has allowed us to have a lasting impact on so many young lives.

Stephanie

Stephanie Randazzo

Pedagogical Coordinator

Stephanie is our Pedagogical Coordinator. She started working for KLA North Bay Village in 2017. She was the lead teacher for the threes and fours classroom. What she enjoys most about working at KLA is the respect, space and image that is given to the children. The children give us so much and working with this philosophy exemplifies how much we can learn from children. When I am not running around our Piazza, I love taking yoga classes and trying out new, local food spots.
