A Message From Us

Welcome to the Lightbridge Academy of Fort Washington! My name is Jessica Lassiter, I am the Director of Lightbridge Academy of Fort Washington. I have been in the Early Childhood Education industry for over 6 years, and providing the highest quality of care is my passion. I graduated from West Chester University with a Bachelor’s degree in Business Management and a Masters Degree in ECE Administration. I began my career as a teacher and have held many positions in the ECE community. However, by far, the most rewarding is being a Center Director with Lightbridge Academy. Our Assistant Director is Kathy Duckenfield, and our Administrative Assistant is Verneeza Thomas. Both Kathy & Verneeza have been a part of our Lightbridge Academy family for over 5 years. We look forward to sharing all the great things our center has to offer and how we can help ensure your child has the best early childhood experience in town! Lightbridge Academy of Fort Washington is UNDER NEW OWNERSHIP and is NOW ENROLLING! Families are welcome to schedule a tour and discover why our parents experience peace of mind knowing that their children are receiving the best possible care, along with a quality early childhood education program for Infants, Toddlers, Preschool and Pre-K children! Our state-of-the-art child care center has been scrubbed and sanitized from top to bottom and enhanced health and safety procedures are in place. We are so grateful that you are considering us to care for your child! From the first hello of the day to the last good-bye, we want every child to feel safe, nurtured, and excited to learn and grow with us, and for you to consider us a true partner in the development and education of your child. We go beyond what’s expected, creating a one-of-a-kind educational experience for the children we care for and the families who cherish them. The early years of life are the most crucial and set the foundation for a lifelong love of learning. Our proprietary Seedings curriculum focuses on the whole child, incorporating areas such as reading and writing readiness, language and literacy, social and emotional development, STREAM (science, technology, reading, engineering, art, math), and utilizing the outdoor learning environment for collaborative learning and play. Our center also offers state-of-the-art technology which allows us to reach our goal of keeping parents connected to our center and to their child throughout the day. We look forward to meeting you and having you join our family!

Can I enroll my child in Lightbridge Academy at any time?

Yes. Enrollment at all Lightbridge Academy locations is ongoing as long as space is available.

Is there a minimum or maximum number of days per week my child can attend Lightbridge Academy?

All Lightbridge Academy locations are open Monday through Friday. Most programs are available from 2 to 5 days per week. Back-up care is available on a daily and space available basis.

How will I be informed about my child's progress at Lightbridge Academy?
Effective communication happens on an ongoing and daily basis through our parent eCommunication app. You will receive ongoing and daily reports detailing important classroom announcements, reminders, photos, and videos so you won’t miss a thing! It is also a great tool for doctor visits helping to keep track of important information such as what your child ate, how they slept and even potty details. In addition, teachers will track your child’s development by taking observation notes based on our curriculum. We review this information with you twice a year at our Parent Teacher conferences. Of course, directors and teachers are always available to speak with you at any time.
What is the average adult to child ratio at most Lightbridge Academy locations?
Each Lightbridge Academy center meets or exceeds state regulations regarding adult to child ratios. You can rest assured that your child will receive an abundance of attention from trained and caring early childhood professionals.
