At six years old, Regine joined at amateur singing contest, singing Buhat Ng Kita'y Makilala.

With the support of her parents, Regine joined various singing competitions in provinces around the country. Among 200 competitions she joined in, Regine won 67 of them.
At nine years old, she and her family moved to Bulacan, where she continued her elementary education at Balagtas Central School.
