Much like all parents we love our children emphatically and are amazingly attentive to their wants and needs. Much like all parents we want their environment to reflect that love and attentiveness.
As a traveling military family we've encountered several educational platforms. Most all of them claim to provide a healthy mixture of freedom to promote creative expression while instilling strong social and academic standards.
While we have enjoyed other platforms, none compare to the lighthouse. Our 2.5 year old daughter is very standoffish and slow to warm up to new enviroments. As a covid child she spends a majority of her time with her one sibling and appears to suffer from social anxiety.
Our daughter was given the final say on whether she is comfortable there and her smile tells the story. Following the initial 10 days ,she lights up when we turn the corner into the parking lot. She skips as she enters the space. She greets the welcome committee at the door. She embraces both of her teachers (Bri and Megan).
For a child appearing to suffer from social anxiety, this is a big deal for us.
Obviously, they have an amazing curriculumn, obvioulsy they are clean and modernized. Obviously they are a secure inside and out. Obviously, they respect allergies and sensitivities.
What isnt obvious is the intangible. Greeting you by name and actually remembering you is basic, they make it a point to get to know you, your child, their needs and their support group. It's genuine. You can feel it!
Thank you for what you do. Bradley (Owner), Jenna (Director), Connie (Asst Director) Amber (Welcome Committee)
