We do enjoy the teachers as they are very loving and kind. It’s more administration that leaves a bad taste in my mouth. They are not warm , make you feel like any question , statement or request is an issue or as if you are bothersome. It makes me second guess if this is a place I should continue to keep my child. As someone who works administration of a hospital understand the importance of a simple reply back to a parents concern rather than being ignored. It comes off very aloof and rude.
Secondly , the activities that are shown on the app that will be done in class .. rarely happens. I feel like this is dishonest especially regarding a curriculum. I also received the list of what the new class will be working on with my daughter , however she is doing 80% of the list. I’m not sure if she’s not being challenged enough as a daycare that’s accredited. My opinion was asked and this is our concerns. Maybe it will differ for another family. We hope things get addressed sooner than too late.
Lightbridge Academy of Yardley is a comprehensive daycare where your children are safe, loved and being supported through their respective milestones of growing up. By the time they finish the pre-k course the children are indeed kindergarten ready. I have one who went through all the classrooms and is thriving in Kindergarten and loves school! My youngest is currently being supported in her journey to become more independent and potty trained. The teachers are communicative and there is an open door policy to always hear thoughts and concerns and are quick to resolve matters and create plans when things need improvement. I love the administration and how they come along side and support the growth of my family. Thank you for everything you all do!!
Great teachers!
My son loves it and the teachers are accommodating
When we started at Lightbridge, we were expecting to receive pictures of our kiddos every day. For our youngest, we are lucky to get one a day.
Additionally, the classrooms are growing, teachers are leaving and we just continuously get floaters assigned. The reason we wanted to come to LB was to have consistency. LB should ensure the classrooms have assigned teachers before adding more kids. One of the classrooms has 16 kids with only one assigned teacher. My other kids classroom had a teacher leave, we got assigned a new teacher, and that teacher left within a few days without an official message.
We recently switched from Lightbridge Eatontown to Lightbridge Shrewsbury. We cannot say enough about the Mobile Infant class in Shrewsbury. Dropping off our son, Parker, is so much easier knowing he is in good hands. Ms. Lizzie and her staff have made us feel at ease. We love that the children are outside multiple times a day and that our son is able to engage in arts and crafts. Overall, this experience has been such a positive experience for the three of us.
The curriculum is great - our child gets so much interactive learning opportunities. The teachers & staff are attentive to parent needs. The facility and classrooms are very well-maintained.
The teachers and the staff are the best! They really care about the kids and their development. The teachers are very creative with the weekly themes and the kids learn a lot. We are very happy to be apart of the Lightbridge family. My kids even ask to go on to Lightbridge on the weekends.
We have had such a wonderful experience at this daycare. The teachers are incredibly friendly, professional, and truly know what they’re doing. They helped transition my baby between classrooms slowly and thoughtfully, making sure he felt comfortable and adjusted every step of the way. I always receive constant, helpful updates, which gives me so much peace of mind.
Everyone here is sweet, supportive, and genuinely caring. The leadership from Crystal and Morgan has been outstanding, and the teachers especially Ariana, Emily, Nora, and Noelle are absolutely amazing. I actually chose my job location based on the great reviews of this daycare, and I couldn’t be happier with that decision. We feel so lucky to be part of this community!
When we signed up we were told this wasn’t going to be ran like a daycare and that is what it has turned into. The kids walk around looking bored and there is no structure. We were also told there was supposed to be a curriculum and that each weeks theme would be represented with the toys in the classroom and I have yet to see that. The teachers look like they are just trying to get through the day. I was highly disappointed with the holiday party efforts . A lot needs to be changed and improved. For this establishment to be considered Montessori it’s definitely falling short in that area. Also the cleaning of the area and the toys need to be done way better and the hygiene done throughout the day . Also I do think there should be extra precautions taking to make sure parents aren’t bringing their sick kids to school.
I think that there should be a bit more free play in the preschool rooms and perhaps a little less structure
We love how much our child is learning and how much the staff care for him. Can’t say enough great things about everyone there.
Great staff, clean environment, and positive vibes. Can't ask for more. We know our son is well taken care of!
Physical appearance could use some work. Play area needs some work with controlling bugs (mosquitoes and bats). Other than that, the teachers are absolutely amazing.
I would like to nominate Ms. Amanda for teacher of the year. She truly goes above and beyond for her students and has had an incredibly positive impact on their growth and development. Ms. Amanda takes the time to understand and support each child’s individual needs. She is an exceptional teacher who helps her students build strong foundations in reading, math, and other essential skills, all while making learning engaging and effective. Thank you Ms. Amanda!
We have had a very positive experience overall. The staff is incredibly flexible and truly works with us as a team to support our children’s development. We appreciate how open everyone is to both giving and receiving feedback, and it’s clear that the focus is always on what’s best for the kids.
The only area for improvement we’ve noticed is communication around new or temporary staff. With recent changes, it sometimes took a while to learn names or understand who our child’s primary teachers were, especially with the use of floaters. That said, every teacher we’ve interacted with has been wonderful, caring, and capable, so this is more about clarity than quality.
Overall, we feel supported, listened to, and confident that our children are in great hands.
We love Lightbridge, especially Bria Browne! She makes everything amazing!
Everything! The teachers have been amazing to my kids. Office administrators are attentive. Facility is clean.
I like how much it prepares kids for school and how much they do and learn.
The teachers are attentive and responsive to our child’s individual needs, meeting her where she is developmentally and emotionally, and actively supporting her growth. The staff creates an environment where she feels safe, confident, and cared for.
Everything about the program has had such a huge impact on my son! He’s been at Lightbridge since he was 9 months old (currently 2) and I’m honestly so grateful for the teachers and daycare attendees. I am especially grateful for Ms Natalie and Ms Marisa in purple cats! My son adores them and has grown/learned so much from being in their class. The learning structure has really helped him develop his speech and knowledge beyond his age. Theyre both super attentive and caring, and I get along really well with them which makes leaving my son in their care so easy. I’d recommend Lightbridge time and time again.
I love how they make all these creative projects and have something happening all the time for the kids. The teachers are absolutely amazing to my boy and the admin definitely knows everything that goes on. Everyone is willing to support and help in any way possible. They make my anxiety leaving my child while my husband and I go to work every day a whole lot easier.
I love how I get pictures of my baby every day. I can see how much he is learning he is doing. It makes me happy.
I like the camera access, the classrooms are structure and the outdoor play
My 2 YO son has learned and grown so much since starting at Lightbridge. The teachers and Director are amazing and take such great care of my little one- I'm so grateful they give me comfort and confidence in leaving him in good hands.
The transition was so easy for my 2 year old daughter thanks to her teachers who are so nurturing, caring and patient. Their team work reflects as well as their dedication to all children. All of my daughter’s teachers are amazing, but from the very beginning she’s had a special connection with Mrs. Priscila. Every time when I leave her in her classroom I leave with peace of mind because I know she is taken care of and so loved by her teachers. All staff at LB is overall great and friendly!
what i love most about Lightbridge is that the kids and staff are equally as happy to see each other every morning!
I love long-standing teachers, and the ability to watch my child grow through camera access.
My daughter loves going to her class everyday. They are very welcoming. She has learned a lot and we see her progress in so many ways. Her Teachers Mrs. Monaco and Mr. Alex are amazing.
The Lightbridge Valhalla staff is incredibly caring and treats every child as if they were their own. From day one, they have built a level of trust and connection with our child that we are deeply grateful for. The consistent communication and thoughtful updates throughout the day provide such peace of mind, and the engaging activities clearly reflect how much intention and love goes into everything they do. Every morning, our child walks into a welcoming, positive, and nurturing environment, and it brings us so much joy to see that excitement. We truly couldn’t ask for a better place or a more dedicated team to support our child’s growth and happiness
