Our Story

INTEGRITY PASSION EXCELLENCE These are the core values at Children's Lighthouse Early Learning Schools and have been since our founding more than twenty-five years ago. When brothers Mike and Pat Brown opened the first Children's Lighthouse school in 1997, they were parents and uncles of several young children. They recognized the need for quality childcare that went beyond playtime and "baby-sitting." That's why, at Children's Lighthouse, our Brand Promise has been the driving factor in everything we do from the beginning. With excellence as the standard, Children's Lighthouse crafted an innovative educational and values-based curriculum designed to engage your child in the joys of learning. Our Director of Education and Training, Dr. Kristi Smith, understands the importance of partnering with families to provide the educational materials that will lay the groundwork for lifelong academic success. Our Lighthouse Pathways® approach to learning incorporates years of experience and research to support families as they begin their educational journey and beyond.
