Lightbridge Academy High quality childcare and early education programs for infants, toddlers and preschool children. We are so much more than just a daycare!

Busy working families need childcare for their children but also desire a high-quality early childhood education program. Lightbridge Academy offers infant, toddler, preschool and back-up care programs. We want every child to feel safe, nurtured, and excited to learn and grow with us, and every family to consider us a true partner in the development and education of their child. We go beyond what's expected from daycare to create an exceptional early childhood education experience.

Little minds have big feelings. 💛 Through our Social and Emotional curriculum, we help teach mindfulness in many different ways:

1. Yoga and movement classes to learn relaxation techniques
2. Calming corners to manage big feelings
3. Emotions charts so students can point to how they’re feeling today
4. Music and games to keep kids engaged

How do you manage big feelings at home?

These smiles say it all! 🚒 Our Glenside friends got to climb aboard a real fire truck and explore up close! There’s nothing like a hands-on adventure to bring our fire safety learning to life. 🧑‍🚒

Stop, drop and roll…It’s Fire Safety Week! 🔥

A big part of our Lightbridge Academy curriculum is ensuring students learn the basics of safety practices. Throughout each center’s week of activities, students are able to get hands-on experience fighting “fires”, touring fire trucks, crawling under “smoke”, and learning to call 9-1-1.

🏠 Parent Homework: keep the learning going at home! While fire safety is still fresh in their minds, take time as a family to create or review your home fire safety plan. Identify your exits, choose a meeting spot and practice what everyone should do in case of an emergency.

We loved giving back to our community! ❤️🚒

Yesterday, we stopped by our neighbors at the Glenside Weldon Fire Company with some yummy hoagies, chips, and drinks as a small way to say thank you for everything they do for our community each and every day.

We’re so grateful to have such amazing local heroes right here in Glenside! 🧑‍🚒💛

Those little hands are getting kindergarten ready. ✏️👀

Fine-motor practice, writing skills and intentional instruction through our Seedlings curriculum help our Pre-K learners build the confidence and control they’ll need for what comes next.

Play is fun. Purposeful play is powerful. 😉

Behind every meaningful learning experience is a team that’s always learning, too.

Each year, every one of our centers hosts a Professional Development Day, giving our teachers and staff time to come together, prepare for the days ahead and make sure we’re all aligned on what’s next. From discussing upcoming initiatives to planning lessons, activities and meaningful learning experiences, every detail is thoughtfully considered with our young learners in mind.

Because creating an exceptional early learning experience takes a team working together behind the scenes to make this the best year yet! 📚

Today’s lesson: observe, investigate, wonder and discover!
Our young toddlers found a bug and grabbed the magnifying glasses to take a closer look. A tiny discovery turned into a BIG opportunity to practice observation, curiosity and early science skills. Sometimes the best classroom moments are the ones you don’t plan for.
