Preschool & Daycare in Durham, NC

Welcome to Lightbridge Academy of Durham, NC! Congratulations on taking your first step in securing a quality educational program for your child. We are conveniently located off Highway 147 & Ellis Road in the Ellis Crossing Marketplace. As an educator, I am thrilled to be a part of the Lightbridge Academy Circle of Care embracing not only your child, but your family, along with our community, staff, and owners in a nurturing and supportive environment. With a bachelor's degree in Birth to Kindergarten Education, I have spent more than 16 years working in the education field. Working with children, families and staff to facilitate their growth has been the most rewarding aspect of my career. Lightbridge Academy embodies an exceptional curriculum while maintaining the highest safety protocol. Also, an environment conducive to creating strong bonds of caring and lifelong friendships. Our owners are parents too who have full-time careers and appreciate the unique challenges of working parents. As The Solution for Working Families®, Lightbridge Academy is perfectly suited to help you balance your life with programs and services to support you. Our curriculum is designed to help meet key developmental milestones, but that’s not all! We also incorporate many additional learning centers into our daily routines: Signing Sprouts (American Sign Language), Singing Sprouts (music appreciation), Yoga & Wellness, BenQ Boards (Digital Learning) to make learning come alive in our preschool classrooms, and throw in our fun extracurricular activities – all to make learning at Lightbridge Academy an extraordinary experience. We look forward to meeting you and your child to share our educational program and to show you how we provide peace of mind during your busy workday! Here at Lightbridge Academy, we make every day count. Sincerely, Kaycee Oxendine, Director
