As parents and educators, we know choosing the right childcare or preschool is personal. You want a safe, nurturing place where your child is known and loved, while building the confidence, curiosity, friendships, and skills they’ll need for what’s next.

We believe every little milestone is a BIG step—from first friendships and growing independence to early learning and kindergarten readiness. And behind those BIG steps are amazing teachers! We invest in their growth, training, and recognition so they can inspire, encourage, and celebrate every child’s success.

Our hope is that Lightbridge Academy Holly Springs feels like more than a school. It’s a community where children thrive, teachers love what they do, and families know they’ve found their people.

Meet our Leadership Team!

Hi! I’m Jacquie, Regional Manager for Lightbridge Academy Apex and Holly Springs. With more than 18 years in Early Childhood Education, I have a true passion for creating exceptional experiences for children and families—and for challenging our leadership teams to keep learning, growing, and raising the bar every day.

I believe some of the most important work we do begins with relationships. When families feel known, supported, and connected to their child’s school, we create an even stronger environment for children to learn, grow, and take those BIG Steps.

Outside of Lightbridge, I’m a mom to two active boys who keep my scheduling brain and coaching skills sharp no matter which sideline I’m on!

I look forward to getting to know your family and supporting you from your first tour and enrollment through all the milestones and BIG Steps ahead.

Hi! I’m Amanda, and I’m so excited to be part of the Lightbridge Academy Holly Springs family as Center Director! I’ve spent the past eight years in Early Childhood Education and earned my Bachelor’s in Education from NC State—Go Wolfpack!

I believe the early years are where so many BIG Steps begin. It’s when children build confidence, discover a love of learning, explore their creativity, and develop the skills that become the foundation for what comes next. One of my favorite parts of early education is building relationships with children and families and creating a school where every child feels safe, loved, and excited to learn.

Outside of Lightbridge, I live in Clayton with my husband and our two very spoiled pups, Jackson and Lana. I can’t wait to welcome you, get to know your family, and be part of your child’s journey!

  • 5 out of 5 stars

    I am so grateful for Lightbridge and the exceptional care they provide to my son! I had a negative experience at a nearby daycare and having them open in the same area was truly a blessing! As a first time mom, it is so important to have the stability and the structure they provide in caring for my little one. My son has learned so much with this amazing group and I am so thankful for all they do!

  • Becky Grovenstein

    Hi there! I’m Becky Grovenstein, proud mom of two daughters, former elementary music teacher, and one of the owners of this amazing school!

    As both a mom and an educator, I’ve always believed that before children speak, they sing; before they write, they draw; and before they run, they dance! Every little moment is a BIG step in a child’s journey.

    That’s why we built Lightbridge Academy around trust, meaningful relationships, and celebrating each child’s unique milestones. I can’t wait to meet your family, cheer on your child’s next BIG steps, and welcome you to our Lightbridge Academy family!

  • Brian Grovenstein

    Hi, my name is Brian Grovenstein, and I’m the yin to Becky’s yang as the other owner of this awesome school. I bring the business, finance, and technology talents to our partnership. I’m also our occasional handyman. The kids are always curious about what I’m fixing, especially when the drill comes out.

    • I’m a proud Girl Dad to two wonderful daughters, and being a parent is a big part of why this school means so much to me.

    • Through partnerships with NCLCCA and Lightbridge Academy’s membership in ECEC, I support advocacy for children, families, and the teachers who make early childhood education possible.

    • In my free time, I enjoy playing drums. I like keeping a good rhythm going, both behind the drums and behind the scenes at our schools.

    I look forward to seeing you around Lightbridge Academy.
