A Message From Us

Welcome to Lightbridge Academy of Manalapan! My name is Alyssa Barlotta, and I am the Center Director.

Alongside Allie Heizer, our Assistant Director, we strive to be the best of the best and promise to partner with you on your little ones early educational journey! As The Solution for Working Families®, we offer both half day and extended day programs from 6 weeks of age all the way to a before and after school program. Having a little one enrolled in the center myself, I know how important it is to build a bond with your child’s teacher. Our experienced staff will ensure that your little one is cared for each and every day! Come see what we are all about by booking a tour today!

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.
