Mainly friendly staff, communication app, early drop off and evening pick up.
More hands on staff and structured classes.
My daughter thrives at this school. She continuously surprises us with how much she is learning and growing. Her teachers are engaged, always planning something fun, and incredibly caring.
Refused to fire a teacher who hit my child. Especially when the parent witnessed it and we just took the teachers word.
Very family friendly
Good with my kid
We have had 3 children in Lightbridge and couldn’t be happier with our experience. After coming from another daycare, the difference in quality has been HUGE.
The teachers at Lightbridge seem genuinely happy to be there, and it shows in the care they provide. They work well together as a team, the facility is clean, and everyone has been so kind and welcoming. We highly recommend Lightbridge.
A more flexible meal plan option would be great. My child is in full-time (5 days a week). I prefer sending him in with home cooked food, but it’s exhausting for me to have to do every single day, especially since I work full-time and we don’t have a support system of family/friends. It would be amazing if I could opt for like 2 days a week. Since the only option is a meal plan for every day of the week he’s there I’ve ultimately decided to opt out.
Disappointed with Lack of educational focus in the class rooms and high staff turnover.
Disappointed with excess fees not shared upfront on enrollment which include yearly “summer camp fee” etc
Improvement can be made with more structured learning in the classroom with periodic student evaluations to make sure they are on par with learning standards for their age and teacher evaluations to make sure they are meeting the appropriate education requirements for students.
The teachers, they are so kind and caring. They take their time with the kids especially if transitions are tough. I also love the ability to check in on my kiddo throughout the day. It’s definitely helpful for a new anxious mom like myself!
Lightbridge did an amazing job with our child. They took amazing care of them daily. Thank you to the whole staff!
Finding a preschool where your child is loved, encouraged, and genuinely known is priceless, and that's exactly what we've found here.
From the very beginning, the teachers and staff welcomed our family with so much kindness that it never felt like we were just another enrollment. It felt like we became part of an extended family. They celebrate every milestone, notice the little things, and truly take the time to understand each child's unique personality.
As a parent, there's nothing more reassuring than dropping your child off knowing they're surrounded by people who care for them as if they were their own. The communication is wonderful, the teachers are patient and nurturing, and the environment is filled with warmth, learning, and joy.
My son has grown tremendously, not only academically, but socially and emotionally as well. He comes home excited to share what he's learned, talks about his teachers with so much love, and walks through the doors each day with a smile.
It takes a special group of people to create a school that feels like a second home, and this preschool has done exactly that. We are incredibly grateful to be part of the Lightbridge Academy of Fort Lee community and will always cherish the memories we've made here.
Love it !!! The staff is wonderful!
I absolutely love this daycare! The teachers are amazing with my daughter, and it truly shows how much they care. She loves her teachers and is always excited to see them. They go above and beyond to make her feel safe, loved, and supported every day. I’m so grateful for the kindness, patience, and dedication they show. Thank you for everything you do!
Staff is friendly, engaging students with fun activities. I feel my child is growing and learning a lot from being there. I also like the communication with parents when there is a concern.
I love the young infant team in Bayonne. Mrs. Saly does amazing with activities and circle time with the babies.
The transparency with the administration and how they know everyone by name. It makes you feel welcome when you enter the building.
Dedicated teachers and welcoming. Willing to work through the challenges of toddlerhood. Very well rounded curriculum with a good balance of structure and play.
Great and caring teachers and staff members! Everyone is so welcoming and friendly.
We love the staff, they are friendly, helpful and nurturing. We love the secure classroom video monitoring of Watch Me Grow, the Seedlings curriculum is a great learning tool. The center is our home away from home. We love Lightbridge Academy of Elmsford.
I love the warm friendly staff in the building. I feel confident knowing that my children are safe and well.
The love that the teachers has for the babies
Overall, we've had a great experience with this daycare. The staff are kind, the environment is clean and safe, and it's clear they care about the children.
The only suggestion I have is for a little more one-on-one attention when needed. It would be helpful if staff could assist children during mealtimes when necessary, help shy or quiet kids become part of the group, and check in a little more with children who tend to keep to themselves.
Other than that, it's a wonderful daycare, and I would definitely recommend it.
Caring, nurturing teachers and staff who truly put the kids first. The owners are involved, transparent, and genuinely committed to what's best for every child. Highly recommend!
The kids are always learning new things.
I like the structure of the program, the teachers, low teacher turnover, fun activities and optional program during school hours such as gymnastics and dance.
Love the admin and special efforts the staff puts on to make each child feed special
We love the staff at Lightbridge and our toddler loves spending time with her teachers and friends! They always keep it fun and do exciting activities that make us feel happy to have her in such a great learning environment.
I love that the teachers make me feel like my child is safe with them. And i’m able to watch her on camera all day long. gives me peace of mind !. Everyone at this school has been amazing !
My daughter started when she was 2yrs and 9 months, now she’s 4 and a half, she comes home telling me what she learned about at school between what goes on during circle time to all of the fun art activities that the teachers have planned for the day. Her teachers truly care about her and if she is having a rough day they communicate it as soon as possible.
