Daycare & Preschool in Hoboken-Willow, NJ

Welcome to Lightbridge Academy of Hoboken Willow, NJ located at 1414 Willow Avenue! We are excited to begin serving Hoboken families. We are so thankful to be given the opportunity to create endless memories. Our owners Ann and Jean Pierre Alvarado are very excited to be a part of this journey with all of you.

My name is Gloria Vasquez, and I am delighted to be the Center Director here at Lightbridge Academy Hoboken Willow. I have been in the early childhood education field for the past 17 years, working with children ranging from infants to school age. I have a Bachelor of Arts in History and a Master of Education with a concentration in Educational Leadership. I have a special love and interest in bilingual education and culture, which stems from my background and upbringing. Education is my passion; I am a firm believer that the gift of education is the greatest gift you can give a child, particularly early childhood education which establishes the building blocks and social values for a child’s future. My goal is to provide a safe, healthy, nurturing, and inclusive environment for your children to learn and develop their abilities and skills while having fun and exploring new areas!

We hope to welcome you and your family to our amazing center where care and safety are our top priorities! We understand the importance of maintaining the highest quality of care and early learning environment for your child, and we can’t wait to make this center your family’s home-away-from-home. We look forward to meeting you soon and welcoming you to our Lightbridge Academy of Hoboken-Willow Family!
