My daughter has been attending Childrens Lighthouse for over two years now and we could not be happier with how much she has learned and grown there. Overall we are very happy with the staff and curriculum being taught to her age group. She is a happy little girl there and really enjoys being with her class and the activities they do throughout the day.

We sent our daughter here for a year and we have only good things to say about this daycare. Our daughter had a lot of separation anxiety, and shout-out to Ms Gisela for helping her and for always being there for her. All other teachers were also very good! The daycare is clean. They followed all Covid related protocols really well, and kept parents updated at all times. They have a camera in every room that parents have access to. As a first time parent, we thought this was very useful. And, they have indoor and outdoor play areas, so no matter what the weather is, kids get their play time every day! If we were not moving, we’d have never taken our daughter out of the daycare. I recommend it 100% to other parents! Positive Reliability

My daughter has been at Children's Lighthouse for about 9 months and during this time has transitioned from one classroom up to the next classroom appropriate for her age. The teachers and administrative staff are always so friendly and helpful. The curriculum is great and is helping my daughter to advance, and our community has grown as a result of the activities and days out our family are invited to participate in. I would highly recommend Children's Lighthouse.

Our daughter started in the 2 year old room a month ago and we have been extremely happy our experience thus far! She is excited to go to 'school' everyday and her vocabulary has vastly improved in this short time. The teachers are very kind and communicative. We love the Procare app they use which keeps us informed of all our daughter's activities throughout the day including meals and nap time. The children are very engaged throughout the day, both mentally and physically. Their days consist of gym time, water time outside (weather permitting), 'writing' activities and fun extras like music, soccer, and yoga classes. We are very happy with our choice to send our daughter to Children's Lighthouse!

Choosing a daycare during a global pandemic was a stressful experience for us, but Children's Lighthouse made it easy and comfortable. We have really enjoyed our experience here. The facility is bright and sunny and clean. They take safety and health precautions seriously and we always feel safe leaving our daughter here. There is video monitoring if you like and we appreciate the pictures that are sent throughout the day. They do a ton of fun activities with the kids throughout the day. My daughter loves the indoor gym (especially in the winter time). Everyone is welcoming and friendly and knows our daughter by name. Would highly recommend. Positive Responsiveness, Reliability

My two-year-old son loves going to school here! He started in November 2024 and would cry every time I dropped him off. They’ve been so good to him, have taught him so much, and continue to nurture, love, and care for my boy every single day that he no longer cries. 🥹 In fact, he runs off to play with his classmates or is ready to start eating a snack. As a parent, you can’t ask for anything more. Knowing your child is safe and loved is everything. ♥️ HOWEVER, to brag a little more about them: the facility is clean, the other teachers and staff are wonderful, and the directors are informative. They provide weekly newsletters and send home lots of work that the children do during curriculum time. 📑 I love their posts using an app that makes it easy to stay updated throughout the day. Other teachers who have seen your child or take care of siblings or family members even care for your child! 🫶🏼 It’s just an absolutely wonderful place to send your child(ren). I would highly recommend thi

My daughter has been attending Children’s Lighthouse since November 2024, and we are absolutely thrilled with our experience. The staff provides a warm, caring, and professional environment where children truly thrive. We’re especially impressed with the educational activities — in just a few months, our daughter has learned to count, confidently name all the colors, and recognize many animals. It’s amazing to see how much she has grown both academically and socially. Special thanks to Kelsie for her incredible patience, positivity, and genuine care. We feel lucky to be part of this wonderful community!

We started our son at Children's Lighthouse at 3 months old (now almost 5mo) and they have been so great to us and our baby. Valerie, Lilly and Jenny (and everyone who has helped out) in room 1 have seriously been amazing for this transition for me going back to work and making us feel comfortable leaving him with them. I always know they're in good hands and I love getting the updates through the app on how his day is going plus the pictures! It's also been super easy to get in contact with them when or if I need and they are always accommodating to his needs. We almost sent him to a different place until I visited here and instantly felt more comfortable and now I've never been happier that with the decision!

I can’t say enough great things about the staff at Children’s Lighthouse. We moved to their daycare after an unpleasant experience at a previous center and they were amazing right off the bat. Our child began enjoying school more and more each day. They’ve been very understanding and easy to work with through some transitions and continue to offer amazing support for our child and all the children at the center.

I can not say enough good things about Children’s Lighthouse. We moved our baby to this daycare in a pinch after experiencing an absolute nightmare elsewhere. Not only were we accommodated but embraced like family. The facility is safe, staffed, and has a youthful happy vibe. Naturally, with such a young babe (6 months old), I was nervous to leave her in the hands of anyone but myself. That changed after day one. Ms. Lily, Ms. Zoe, and Ms. Leilani love my baby like their own. I am always updated and have never had a second of fear with her in their care. They have become family. Zoe is thrilled to be dropped off and I have the comfort of knowing she is safe, happy, and learning (reading, painting, making friends!). The best.

We used Children's Lighthouse for backup care so we were only here for a short time but we absolutely loved our time here. The entire staff was so welcoming and kind, especially in the infant rooms. They treated us like regulars. The whole place is very clean, communication was great and it was clear how much they cared for our son. I'm so sad we don't live just a little bit closer to make this our full time spot. Would highly recommend!

My son has attended Children’s Lighthouse for over a year and we have been very pleased with all of the staff and the service. Every single staff member is very caring and attentive to our son. He has been in both infant rooms and the toddler room and loves going there every day! Curriculum Play-based, Academic

Our son attended Children’s Lighthouse for almost a year, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the very beginning, the communication with us as parents was excellent, and we loved having the flexibility to pick him up whenever we needed. The families we met along the way were wonderful, and the teachers truly made it a warm, nurturing place for our child. Our son had a few different teachers during his time there, and each of them was amazing in their own way. Ms. Lilly and Miss Araceli were his very first teachers, and I don’t even have the words to express how much love and care they poured into him. Later on, he was also supported by Miss Leilani, Miss Britany, Ms. Lupe, Ms. Veronica, and Miss Shandrika (and I’m sure I’m forgetting a few!), who were all equally incredible. Each one brought their own special touch, and we always felt confident that our son was in the best hands. We also want to highlight Sujan at the front desk she not only welcomed us daily but als

I could not feel more fortunate to have found Children’s Lighthouse. Everyone from the administrative staff to the teachers is outstanding to work with—communicative, attentive, and extraordinarily caring—and the center is meticulously clean. I believe the CL teachers in particular are what truly set this center apart from the rest. My son ADORES his teachers, and watching the way they care for him gives me incredible peace of mind as a mom. If you manage to find an available spot for your child at CL, I highly recommend that you take it; this is the gold standard of childcare!
