The teachers really care about your children!! They take the time to get to know them and pay attention to your specific accommodations. Highly highly recommend!
We would like to see more toddler activities throughout the week. It would be beneficial to remind caregivers to be more gentle when handling the children or when they are crying.
It is a great environment! The teachers are very kind and attentive. We like the Lightbridge app a lot, which keeps us informed of his activities throughout the day.
The ratio of babies to teachers for infants is small which is great. Teachers are all friendly and attentive. Very clean building.
Everyone is absolutely amazing from the teachers to the directors. There is no where else i would rather send my child. I would recommend this place a million times over
Ms Mary was great, overall I I feel like my child was going to good school with good friends around
We truly love everything about Lightbridge Academy of Scarsdale. The activities are engaging and thoughtful, and the care and love they show to our children mean so much to us. We feel very comfortable and happy having our child here.
My daughter feels safe enough to learn and grow emotionally. The staff teach their hearts and their minds.
Communication and staff are great.
Great teachers, upfront cost discussion and wonderful location
We are so thrilled with the programming for our child, who is two and has been at Lightbridge since he was 12 weeks old. It's clear that a lot of thought and prep has gone into his day-to-day there, and it's amazing to see how much he learns in school and brings home. His vocabulary, social skills, comprehension... it's incredible! We're so grateful to have a large "village" like Lightbridge with us as he grows during this very important years!
The facilities are top notch, the extra programs offered during the day are great for working parents (dance, gymnastics) who may not be able to do outside programa, and the teachers are attentive and caring.
I am very happy with the staff at the center. The building is clean and welcoming.
There are age appropriate activities and lessons planned for the kids that help them learn things without feeling like they are "in school". Independence is integrated in everyday tasks but with a discipline that would also really benefit parents when the kids are at home. The social aspect of being at the Academy is amazing. I love all the extracurricular activities that are also offered.
From day one, I felt very comfortable leaving my daughter in the care of the infant teachers. The communication through the app, photos, and phone calls is top tier. The updates on all daily living activities helps us track how our baby is doing and how we can proceed in the evenings for meals and bedtime. They have been flexible with transitions and mostly put the children’s needs first.
We really appreciate the warm, nurturing environment at Lightbridge Academy. The teachers and staff are genuinely caring and attentive, and they take the time to understand each child’s personality and needs. Communication with parents is excellent. we always feel informed and reassured about our child’s day, progress, and well-being.
My kid loves going to her day care and she is learning new things every day ! Her teachers are amazing which is the best part !
Friendly competent staff, no time restrictions on drop off in the morning, special days that match with the curriculum, and that my kids love going there.
We’ve been with this daycare for almost five years now, across two of our kids, and I can honestly say it’s in the best place it’s ever been. The current staff has brought such a great sense of consistency, and you can really feel the level of care and attention they give to each child. It makes a huge difference as a parent knowing your kids are in a safe, nurturing, and well-run environment every day. We’ve had a really positive experience and are so appreciative of the team there!
Great teachers, very responsive directors, well-developed curriculum
I like the structure that the school gives to the kids and the various activities that combine ludic play and also learning opportunities.
A little bit more communication
The attention to detail at Lightbridge Glenside is unmatched. The staff cares deeply about each child and works to personalize each experience. We’ve been so thankful for the growth our son has seen and the community we’ve made!
I truly cannot say enough amazing things about our experience with Lightbridge. From the very beginning, we have felt nothing but welcomed, supported, and confident that our children are in the absolute best hands.
The directors, Ms. Kayla and Ms. Maddy, go above and beyond every single day. Their dedication, organization, and genuine care for every child and family truly set the tone for the entire center. You can tell how much they love what they do, and it shows in every detail.
My child’s current teachers, Ms. Ali and Ms. Claire, are nothing short of incredible. They are patient, nurturing, attentive, and always keep me updated on how my child is doing. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing he is not only safe, but also learning, growing, and happy every day. They truly treat the kids like their own.
My other son has also had such a wonderful experience with his teacher, Ms. Christa, along with Nayma. They create such a warm and engaging environment, and it’s clear how much effort they put into helping each child thrive.
I also want to give a special thank you to his before and after care teachers, Ms. Tammy and Ms. Kim. They have been such an important part of our daily routine, always greeting him with kindness and making sure he feels comfortable and cared for at the start and end of each day.
I also want to recognize some of the amazing past teachers who have made such a lasting impact on our family—Ms. Lexie, Ms. Jasmine, and Ms. Shareefa. Each of them played such an important role in my child’s early development, and I am so grateful for the love and care they showed him.
It’s rare to find a place where every single staff member is so consistently kind, professional, and passionate, but Lightbridge truly is that place. We feel so lucky to be part of this community, and I recommend it wholeheartedly to any parent looking for a safe, loving, and enriching environment for their children.
My daughter attends Lightbridge academy and I have nothing but good things to say about the daycare. The admin staff has always been very helpful and welcoming. The teachers are dedicated and hard working. My daughter always has a fun time there. I definitely recommend Lightbridge Academy!
We recommended lightbridge to 3 families when we started there nearly 2 years ago. However, as of late we have found that the lack of communication- specifically when it comes to changes in staff- is unsettling and disappointing. It usually takes me having to raise a concern before a note or message is sent out. It would be nice for staff to be a bit more proactive when it came to making parents aware of impending classroom staff changes.
Friendly loving staff!
Miss Essense , Miss Kaylah and miss Surinder take care of my daughter so well, they are kind , patient and wonderful teachers.
Thank you to Lightbridge Academy for such a wonderful staff and program.
I fully trust the care you provide!

We are so grateful for our years at Lightbridge. Both of our daughters attended from their baby days all the way through pre-K. The staff is genuinely loving and attentive in a way that stays with you. One small moment that says it all: years after our older daughter had moved on, she would still come to pick up her sister — and every single time, the staff knew her by name, stopped to say hello, and asked how she was doing. That kind of genuine, lasting care doesn't go unnoticed. Beyond our girls, some of the friendships we've made with other parents through Lightbridge have become truly meaningful ones. If you're looking for a place where your child will be known, loved, and genuinely cared for from their very first days — this is it. We will always cherish our Lightbridge family.
Lightbridge has given my daughter so much, learning, comfort,
