Organized curriculum

Fanwood, NJ
My children have had some absolutely wonderful teachers. My oldest is going to kindergarten next year and I feel that he is fully prepared based on his time in PreK.

Caring teachers

My child has learned a lot while at Light Bridge Academy. His vocabulary is larger than I expected for his age. He seems happy and content there.

I’ve seen such an improvement in the Lightbridge administration for the better over the past few months- it’s incredible! I feel so much more in the know of what’s happening at school, what’s happening with teachers, and just overall trajectory of the daycare as a whole. They really have taken an initiative to keep parents informed of all school matters and implement more uniform policies and procedures which I genuinely appreciate which is why my score has actually gone up!

Excellent learning environment and great teachers

The curriculum is appropriate and effective. Our son has learned so much, from basic letters, sounds and numbers, to Spanish and sign language. We also like the extracurricular opportunities, such as weekly PESA sports and some of the fun annual traditions, like trunk or treat. The teachers and office staff are always approachable and responsive to questions and concerns.

We really love Lightbridge. We can tell that our 15 month son loves going to this daycare. Within the first week, he rushes to his classroom and sometimes cries when we go pick him up. He’s picked up on sign language here and we’re so grateful that he’s been able to enjoy the outdoors here. His summer has been full of water play and other activities. They even brought in a petting zoo! Lightbridge has surpassed our expectations of a daycare and we’re so grateful that our son gets to come here every weekday.

Our kids are very very happy at school. They love their teachers, they love the activities, and they love their friends. I love the easiness of the app and how I can get updates throughout the day. I can see how happy they are with the videos and photos that are posted. My toddler is excited to tell me about her day. She reviews all the fun things they did at school and teaches me what she has learned. She frequently says her teachers are her best friends. I’m always happy to hear feedback from the teachers, like what works for them during a meltdown, what phrases they use, how they help them cope so I can implement it at home. I only have two kids and these teachers have waaaay more experience than me, so I really appreciate their insight. I absolutely love Lightbridge! And I can tell my kids also love it there too!

Students are very prepared for Kindergarten.


I love the curriculum - it’s amazing that the kids are exposed to so many different things at such a young age (arts, math, sign language!)! I have a child in Infants and a child in Orange Giraffes, and both classes are wonderful. The teachers communicate clearly and regularly with the parents. Also special shout out to all of the Infant room teachers - they truly love the babies like they are their own! I love how many crafts and special activities they do with the babies.

The staff is SO caring and they all go above and beyond for the kids. Putting our babies in the care of others can be a scary thing, and all of the teachers put our minds at ease!

The staff are great. Most of the teachers knows my son's name who started in the infant class and is now in the mobile infants. I like the exposure to Spanish in their classroom.

Wonderful teachers! My daughter learns so much each week and we feel confident that she’s in the best hands possible whenever she goes to school. Such a caring, nurturing environment both in terms of teachers, administration and parents. Couldn’t be happier with Lightbridge Fanwood!

Lots of unique experiences brought in (programs, demonstrations, special projects). I love the yoga and meditation lessons. Everything is clean. Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. JT thrives there.

The teachers are wonderful! Smaller class sizes ensure lots of one-on-one learning time. The curriculum is excellent, my daughter has learned so much since starting at Lightbridge!

All of the office staff know us by name and greet us daily. They call for any incidents, no matter how small. Other staff members who aren’t even in my sons’ class know him by name. It really is a family here!
