The school is safe, nurturing, and educational within developmentally appropriate expectations. The staff at Lightbridge are truly dedicated to providing the best possible care for the children in their care. We've had exceptional teachers throughout the years, however Allison in particular stands out each day. Although their title is education coordinator, it is easily seen that they play any role needed day to day. I've seen her jump in to help pat my child to sleep for naptimes, handle any issues that arise with grace and compassion, greet my children by name each morning, and play silly roles like dressing up on groundhogs day. They truly seem to enjoy their job and make it more than just a job. The facilities at Lightbridge in Allentown are clean, safe, and well-maintained. There are facial recognition cameras to enter the facility, live stream cameras in each classroom for parent viewing, and their own app to keep you updated on day to day tasks. There is also a large outdoor play area where the children can run, play, and explore with two separate playground areas with sprinklers for water play in summers. My husband and I both work in the healthcare field with sometimes long hours. At times, this results in my children being at school more hours than I'd like. In an ideal world, we'd get to have our babies with us 24/7. Since this is not possible, Lightbridge is able to calm my very anxious mom heart, knowing my children love their school, are well cared for, and are thriving.

We had originally planned to move after building a house but loved the staff at Lightbridge so much we kept our child there permanently. All the staff genuinely care so much for our son which means everything to us. We are so thankful at their attention to detail as our son has a LIFE THREATENING allergy. Miss Jayzel and Miss Allison handled an emergency with our son when he had an allergic reaction so well we were so thankful for their attention to detail and keeping our son safe. All the teachers truly love what they do and it shows. Miss Allison is so friendly and involved with the kids she exemplifies what a caring teacher and person should look like!

My daughter has been enrolled since June 1 and since has come home everyday with new and great learning experiences. The teachers Miss Sarah and Miss Linda know my child well. She gets in school and immediately sits on the teachers lap. The other teachers in other rooms also seem to know my daughter as well, including the owner Miss Jill and the director, Miss Sandy, even parents of other children in her room generally know my child and greet her. The place is very clean, very new, with great activity areas for kids including a large indoor gym. I feel that this would be a very great place for me to continue my child's education, in loving, fun environment.

They are both very approachable, and from my experience, we can walk in at any time to discuss any thing about my child. The facility is extremely clean, I notice the teachers and staff picking up toys that the children may have mouthed, they wipe down tables, and changing stations constantly. They even have buckets in each room for toys that need to be cleaned, toys that were cleaned, and toys that are drying! The toddler room mini bathroom stalls aside from being cute are exceptionally clean as well. ALL of the staff/teachers are very friendly and knowledgable. They greet everyone coming in which gives the center a positive vibe. The security in the building is amazing. From iPads to check your child in/out, to a special entry security system...we leave feeling that our child is in safe and secure hands. My son loves to play there and in the few months that he has attended, we have noticed that he is learning so much. He comes home singing songs he learned, he talks about animals he's learned about, he talks about his friends and teachers at school, etc. It's proof that he is truly having a fun and educational experience!

As someone who has worked for many years as both a teacher and Director, I am extremely selective about who is educating and taking care of my children on a daily basis. My oldest son was enrolled at two other schools before we finally found Kiddie Academy. Unfortunately, his experiences at the other schools were subpar (to put it nicely), and left both of us slightly nervous about taking a chance in a new environment. However, after touring Kiddie Academy, I knew it was exactly the nurturing and educational environment I wanted both my children to experience. My oldest son is currently in the Kindergarten program and he comes home everyday with stories about all the things he has learned and all the fun he has had. The curriculum is phenomenal and the teachers go above and beyond to engage the children in hands-on learning activities. My youngest son started attending the toddler program this spring and has been having a wonderful time learning through play, meeting with friends, and getting to know his teachers. The school is clean, safe, and well maintained which is important to me. However, even more importantly, the teachers at the school are phenomenal! I have no doubt that all of the educators are well-trained, communicative, and care for each child as if they were their own! I always wanted my children to be at a school where the teachers treated them with the utmost respect and compassion and this school has exceeded my expectations. When I walk through Kiddie Academy, all the teachers smile, make eye contact, and are welcoming and that means a lot to me. All of the staff are professionals who I happily entrust the care of my "most prized possessions" to on a daily basis and I couldn't be more thankful to have that peace of mind.

I have contacted Bethany about what has been taking place at West Valley and they haven't even been willing to give a response.
