We are really grateful for the care the Lightbridge staff provides our toddler. We work long hours and it's such a relief to know that our baby is in good hands. The directors truly listen and make sure the center is running smoothly. The teachers and aids have a relentless upbeat attitude and spend considerable time with each student bonding and helping them develop their skills.

When Lightbridge of Eatontown first opened and was ran by Teena Patel it was a blissful place to send your child. My eldest went everyday and I was so relieved by the care he was given. From the caretakers, to the administrative staff, and owners made sure that every child had the best care in every aspect. They even helped me and gave me advice as I was a first time mom. The rating of 5 stars belongs to the prior Lightbridge when it was ran by Teena. Fast forward 5 years, after having my second child, I returned to Lightbridge hoping to get the same care for my son and boy was I wrong. There are new owners that are never ever around, most of the caretakers are careless and do the bare minimum to make the day go by. Dropping of my child felt so uncomfortable and sad as my son would hysterically cry as I left him in the arms of people that did not teach nor nurture. There is no hygiene process in place, they say they do but it is not enforced, and the toys are not properly sanitized. My son was constantly sick and would come home filthy from crawling on a disgusting carpet and floor. Unfortunately, I had to keep my son there for 7 months until a spot opened at another near by daycare. Effective care starts from the top, if the owners and administrative staff do not care and do not have processes in place then the staff won’t care either. You cannot go with bare minimum in childcare as these are little people and parents trust that they get the best type of care. With that being said, Lightbridge Academy of Eatontown do better!

I have been more than thrilled with Lightbridge, the teachers and the administrative staff. My son was not happy at his previous daycare, his demeanor and attitude had changed, he was not that happy kid that we were used to seeing. Since moving him to Lightbridge of Eatontown, in September of 2021, he is back to his normal self and loves going to school to learn, see his friends and teachers. Ms. Haley has been an amazing teacher, not only with his education but helping him adjust to a new school. I would and have recommended Lightbridge of Eatontown to every and anyone.

My girls love Lightbridge and every staff member adores them as well! It makes the stress of a full time working parent that much less. I don't worry at work and I see their smiling faces in pictures and at the end of the day. We couldn't be happier! Brittany and Jessie are the best, they care for our girls like they are their own

Everyone at this center is great, but Miss Chey of the orange giraffes always goes above and beyond! Even with a mask on, you can always tell she’s smiling. She’s very patient and kind. Thank you Miss Chey, for everything you do!!!! You are very much appreciated!!!!

My 3 yo has been going to Lightbridge Academy for 3 weeks and he absolutely loves it! He is so excited to go in the morning and he is full of stories when I pick him up. All of the staff are really friendly and welcoming and they made the transition from daycare easy for all of us. We enjoy getting pictures throughout the day and we love going over the daily report together in the evening. It's great to see what my son is learning and taking part in during the day. The activities and programs are perfect for their age and they seem to make learning fun and interesting. We are extremely pleased with everything Lightbridge has to offer for our sons first preschool experience. Thank you!

My son started at Lightbridge when he turned 2, in the short 6 months he’s been going there he has learned so much. His vocabulary has expanded and he even knows Spanish and sign language. The staff and teachers are all so caring and welcoming, they treat everyone like family. My son is so excited every morning when I drop him off he looks forward to seeing his teachers and friends. I highly recommend for anyone looking for a daycare.

Lightbridge Eatontown was our first school experience for our 2 year old. They made the transition so easy and have been nothing short of perfect. The staff are all incredibly kind and caring, communication and procedures are clear and specific, and the facility is really warm and cozy. This experience has been exactly what we hoped for our child. He has thrived and his development has exploded since starting here.

Lightbridge Eatontown is fantastic. The staff is so attentive, caring, considerate, and totally have made our baby feel so comfortable. He's thriving in this environment, and all his teachers (caretakers) are wonderful, especially Ms. Evelyn (she's the best). We highly recommend Lightbridge Eatontown to anyone in the area who has childcare needs. :-)

When it comes to your child care and development needs, parents want the best quality and caring professionals. My 3 year old daughter was enrolled at the Eatontown center for about 6 months until we moved further away, otherwise she would have continued to go there. The staff is amazing, professional and quick to respond to any calls or emails that a nervous parent may send out :) The facility itself is very roomy and large, its great they have an indoor rec room. During Covid-19 they ensured to take all precautions to prioritize the safety of the children and staff, they made me very comfortable sending my child back to daycare in 2020. Highly recommend!

My daughter went to Lightbridge for 2.5 years and it was a wonderful experience. Her teachers were so caring and they prepared her for starting Kindergarten this past fall. Her Kindergarten teacher even commented on how much she already knew! In addition to the teachers, the front office staff was always helpful when we had questions. I would highly recommend.

I know and have seen firsthand that it is more common for people to voice complaints and concerns than to praise and acknowledge achievement. While I, too have voiced certain concerns with the center about my children, I want to also acknowledge how pleased I am with my sons growth and stability in his current class (Blue Horses).Miss Maria and Miss Amanda (admin) have both been extremely supportive and kind about hearing our concerns that we have had in the past, and for that I thank them. But I would be remiss if I didn't acknowledge the amazing job that Miss Haley has done with our son. She has been patient, kind, and extremely supportive of him. I know how challenging most 3 year olds can be, and he is NO exception. But Miss Haley has treated him so fairly and I have seen nothing but growth in him since she has been with Lightbridge. He has learned invaluable life skills about socialization that I would have never been able to teach him at home, and his academic progress has sky-rocketed. You have a very special/professional teacher in Miss Haley and I just want to give her the recognition she deserves.Thank you ALL for creating a safe and nurturing place for my children to learn and grow.

My son has been at Lightbridge for about 2 1/2 years and I cannot say enough good things about this daycare. It is the perfect balance of the high standards you'd associate with a corporate facility and the feeling of "family". I have loved every single teacher my son has had, I feel his safety and happiness are always the top priority no matter what classroom he has been in, and I am continually amazed by the overwhelmingly positive feeling I have every time I step foot in their (immaculately clean) building. The education he has been receiving there never ceases to amaze me, and I feel my son will have an advantage over his peers when he enters kindergarten. This place is doing EVERYTHING right.

What an inviting, caring, and inclusive school. My son has blossomed since he got to the school. He is more than ready for kindergarten now, and I am grateful for the care and attention my child has been given at Lightbridge. You can really feel that every one here is very happy to work there
