Description
Toddlers are quickly learning so much about the world around them, developing faster than almost any other age group. They are all about speed — learning to sing, talk and run all at once. Lightbridge Academy’s Toddler Program is designed to make the most of every one of their fast-paced milestones. Our curriculum specifically addresses toddlers’ rapid growth and development by catering to their readiness cues, with the older toddler curriculum focused on preparing for preschool and beyond. When they display interest or signs of emerging skills, we can encourage them to move to the next challenge.

Description
Preschool provides the freedom and opportunity for children to develop and grow in independence and confidence. An engaged child learns! While having fun, they aren’t even aware they are developing reading and math skills. In addition, your child will gain the social skills necessary to succeed in Pre-K and beyond. Through small and large group instruction and activities, teachers focus on every child as an individual — enabling them to gain knowledge and thrive. Our proprietary Seedlings Early Childhood Education Curriculum utilizes theme-based lessons to strengthen your child’s emerging skills in reading, writing, science, technology and math. Additionally, we help prepare your child for the structured learning environment of a kindergarten classroom through teacher-guided instruction and child-led exploration focused on effective communication, the ability to follow instruction and how to work cooperatively with peers.

Parent Reviews
A warm, caring environment with dedicated staff! We are so happy we chose to send our daughter here. She comes to school every day happy and is learning so much. From the moment you enter the doors you feel like family. Highly recommend Lightbridge!
I can’t say enough wonderful things about Lightbridge Academy. The staff is warm, welcoming, and go above and beyond to ensure that every child gets the best experience possible. My son, who is 4, has been there since he was 2.5, and my 21- month old daughter has been there for almost a year. Every morning, they both are excited and happy to go to “school,” which makes being a working mom that much easier. There is a true family feeling here, and I know that my children are not only being cared for, but are loved (even on their more trying toddler days). I highly recommend this place, and am so grateful that we chose it.
