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
We put our daughter into the Lightbridge Academy of Plainsboro at three months this past summer. She was a preemie so I was very nervous about handing her off to someone that I didn’t know. Since my younger self worked for a Lightbridge Academy I was familiar with the Core Values that the company has and where they stand with the circle of care. It puts my mind at ease when I receive updates throughout the day on the app. Ms. Corrine sends pictures of the activities she is doing, her artwork, nap schedules, food intake, as well as when they change her. The app also makes it easy to communicate with Ms. Corrine. I can reach her with questions as well and she can reach me if she has any concerns or updates that she may need real time or if she needs a quick response. We do see that she is hitting in her expected milestones. This is something that we work on at home on the weekends, but also like seeing that Ms. Corrine is working on them as well. Ms. Corrine and Ms. Freda are always so happy to see my daughter in the mornings. Ms. Lakshmi and Ms. Seema are always so helpful at pick up time. All the staff in the room are incredibly welcoming and friendly. It really helps me to feel comfortable leaving my daughter in their care. Ms. Krupa, Ms. Manisha, Ms. Denae, and Ms. Sarah in the office make it easy for me to feel like I’m part of the family and are always so open to me popping in to say hello. I’m so happy that I chose The Lightbridge Academy of Plainsboro for my daughter. I’m excited to watch her continue to grow in this facility.
Truly love everything about this facility, especially the incredible staff! Teachers and administrators give updates throughout the day which puts your mind at ease if this is your first time putting your children into daycare. Everyone is very friendly and attentive, much like a family. I love Lightbridge Academy and so do my children! Definitely recommend!!
