A Message From Us
Welcome to Lightbridge Academy of Whippany, NJ! We are so happy to be celebrating years in the Hanover Township Community! My name is Samantha Down and I am the Director here at Lightbridge Academy of Whippany. I would like to personally invite you to tour our center and experience what is so unique about Lightbridge Academy. Please feel free to call and schedule a personal appointment or just drop in, you are always welcome.
We know that leaving your children in our capable hands takes a big leap of trust, and we thank you for allowing us to have that honor. We pride ourselves on the ability to be The Solution for Working Families®. When you drop your child off at our location, you are still able to be connected to their day through the use of our extensive technology systems. From the moment you check in with MomentPath upon entry to the center, to having the ability to stay connected to your child with our ParentView® Internet monitoring system, to getting surprise photos and video clips; as well as instant daily reports with MomentPath Communication Technology, you are involved in every aspect of their care and learning, even when you can't physically be with them.
Every moment is a learning moment at Lightbridge Academy, and it shows! Our curriculum is designed to help infants, toddlers and preschool children meet key developmental milestones but that is not all! We also incorporate American Sign Language into our daily routines, and our music program, Singing Sprouts fosters music appreciation in even our youngest learners! We also have Interactive Whiteboard Technology that makes learning come alive in our Pre-K classrooms. We would love for you to visit us! We are offering virtual tours, hallway center walk throughs, and evening tours. We are open from 6:30 am to 6:30 pm. We are looking forward to meeting all of you!
Hope to see you soon!
