My son was a student there for 1 year and in his experience, he has developed a hatred for school,…read morelearning, homework...etc. That should have been my first indication there was a serious issue at the school. I tried working with the teachers, the directors, I even met with occupational therapists and behavioral therapists. My child was not the problem. The teachers told me my son was "unteachable", diagnosed him with ADHD (without having a degree in psychology), and said he has a "chemical imbalance and needs medication." In the time he was present at the school his father deployed for the military. His therapist tried to work with the school due to his "trauma" and adjustment disorder. The staff wasn't understanding or supportive of this change. I had a therapist do an evaluation of my child at the school and the report was absolutely heartbreaking. My child was bullied by the teachers and other students. The only time they gave my son attention was when it was negative. The verbiage used by teachers was inappropriate and they never gave him any positive reinforcement. If your child has any "challenges" don't bother sending your child here. They won't be supported.

I want to introduce you to a new business that recently opened in Plainfield, Illinois. Lighthouse…read moreAcademy is a quality childcare center, and the third of their centers to open in Illinois. Lighthouse Academy is a quality day care center because of its cleanliness, structured curriculum, and nurturing caregivers. I would highly recommend them to families or caregivers looking for a highly educational program for their children. Lighthouse Academy is a quality day care center ran by a wonderful director and filled with enthusiastic and nurturing caregivers. The center is accredited by The National Association for the Education for Young Children (NAEYC) and The Department of Child and Family Services (DCFS). They believe in the highest-level of education to help children learn and grow. The teachers are highly trained in CPR and First Aid. If they are not certified upon being hired, the center offers classes for them to become certified. Lighthouse Academy is a curriculum-based center, which means they follow guidelines while teaching their children, making sure there is structure in their day. Lighthouse Academy focuses on the development of each child intellectually, emotionally, socially, and physically. By focusing on all four of those areas, they are helping build the "whole child". The center is known for its cleanliness and they uphold themselves to a high standard of being extremely clean. They clean the entire building at the end of every day. Each teacher is in charge of their own classrooms, and making sure that all toys and materials are bleached at the end of every day. It is very obvious when you walk into the building of this center that it is very clean and well taken care of. Finding a day care center that is right for your children is important. Early childhood is such an important time in life, and finding quality care can be hard to come across. It is important to find a center that has the same beliefs and philosophies as your own, and by observing centers you can learn which is the best fit for your child. I highly recommend families and caregivers learn more about Lighthouse Academy. I hope that by writing this review I will convince people to visit Lighthouse Academy so they can see for their selves how wonderful of a place it is.

The teachers do not communicate concerns with parents. The director and co director are a joke. This place is run more like an at home day care and not an early childhood facility. I had a meeting set up to discuss my child's concerns and I was sent the assistant teacher that didn't know much about anything. They keep the shared bathroom gates open so children bounce from one classroom to another as we witnessed with our child. Save your time and money and go somewhere else.
