What do you like about our program?

I really appreciate how the VPK program challenges Jillian in all the right ways. She’s learning so much academically, but also growing socially and emotionally. Her teachers recognize her maturity and give her opportunities to shine, which has helped her become more confident and independent. It’s clear that the curriculum is intentional and developmentally appropriate.

What do you like about our program?

We love all of the teachers and staff at Lightbridge. They genuinely know our children and care about them. My kids love going to school every day!

In Green Frogs, Miss Hope and Miss Yami have created a fun learning environment that is getting my daughter ready for kindergarten. She has a strong sense of phonics, is starting to read, and loves doing math problems in her head. We credit her teachers for these building blocks that will enable her to thrive when she is in K next year.

Orange Giraffes was a great classroom for my younger daughter, and I'm very happy with Khaki Kangaroos now as well. It's hard to lead a group of strong-willed 2 year olds, but all of the teachers did a great job of keeping the classroom under control while still respecting the individual needs and development stages of each child.

What do you like about our program?

The program here is exceptional. The curriculum is well-executed, and our child is thriving thanks to the genuine affection shown by the entire staff—not just those in their classroom. We especially appreciate the director’s accessibility and willingness to collaborate on adjustments. This isn't just a school; it’s a dynamic partnership in our child’s early education.

What do you like about our program?

The teachers have been very caring and communicative. They have great events and activities all oriented toward the kids! The facility is very nice! My kids transitioned so well from their last daycare to this one and I think that is very much due to the staff being intentional about making them feel comfortable.

What do you like about our program?

All of our children’s teachers have been incredible but a few stand out more recently. Miss Amber has been a longtime favorite of our kids, and both of them still talk about her by name even after transitioning out of her classroom. She is so kind, warm, bubbly and nurturing. More recently. with Avery switching into Miss Margie’s classroom, we have found another amazing teacher. Margie does an incredible job at fostering independence, sharing knowledge and creating a caring environment for learning. She always has a smile on her face and gives the best morning greetings. Gigi is also the sweetest and playful with the kids. Avery loves talking about things Miss Margie and Miss Gigi do and say. They make a wonderful team.

What do you like about our program?

Miss Hope & Miss Yami have helped my daughter shine, she's more nervous and quiet and they have helped her feel safe and really empowered this year. They have experienced many changes in the class and I'm so grateful for their steady support where my daughter feels loved.

Miss Amber's class is also great, my daughter is a wild child and they have helped her learn more kindness while empowering her.

Thanks for supporting my family as a working mom, it takes a village and I appreciate this village!

What do you like about our program?

We’ve had a wonderful experience with Lightbridge Academy with all three of our boys. My boys are always happy at pick-up and genuinely excited to go in each morning, which says everything about how comfortable and engaged they feel in their classrooms. The teachers are incredibly helpful, caring, and supportive. They take the time to get to know each child and create a warm, positive environment. It gives me real peace of mind knowing my kids are in such good hands every day.

What could we do to improve?

Provide consistent teachers in the classroom- there is a lot of overturn.
Provide daily or weekly report cards for the individual child, not just an overview of the possible curriculum.
Reduce or limit cost. The cost has been increasing on unavoidable activities (Summer camp, tuition, graduation)

How did we disappoint you and what can we do to make things right?

Among a few minor resolved incidents, there is the cost, which is outrageous for 1 child to be in daycare not even full time. And then every activity is an added cost, including food, which I would expect to be built in to the already outrageous cost. Strongly considering leaving & haven't enrolled my 2nd because of the cost

How did we disappoint you and what can we do to make things right?

Inconsistent teachers. Parents not informed of any changes or who the teachers are. Potty training is not happening. Have to tell teachers a million times and they still don’t do it. Add more teachers per class, not have to stick to ratio especially in classes where potty training is supposed to be happening…

What do you like about our program?

I appreciate how open you guys are to feedback and a willingness to adjust to meet families needs. We really love Ms. Shan so far, she has such a great demeanor with the kids. Every week we notice Liam singing new songs and he’s even starting to count! He is clearly learning a lot and seems to be adjusting to daycare slowly but surely.

What do you like about our program?

I want to give a big Shout-Out and Thank-You to Lightbridge Academy for taking such great care of both of my sons. My older son attended Pre-K at Lightbridge and was more than ready for kindergarten by the time he started public school. He is doing very well now, and I truly believe the strong foundation Lightbridge gave him in his early years has played a major role in his success.
My younger son started at Lightbridge two years ago, and at just 3.5 years old, he absolutely loves going to school. One of the things I appreciate most is how loving and caring the teachers are, and how willing they are to work closely with parents.
I also want to give a special shout-out to the Director, Sanya Prakash, who is patient, understanding, and always willing to listen. She offers thoughtful recommendations and clearly cares about both the children and their families.
Another thing I really value about Lightbridge Academy is its STEM-based curriculum, which helps children grow into confident learners who are prepared for the future. Thank you, Lightbridge, for everything you have done for my two sons. I am forever grateful!!!
