  • Our babies had a phenomenal experience with the lighthouse family and i say babies because we were able to do drop ins that were life savers for all of our children. We are a family with no help and we were truly able to lean on the lighthouse like family. All the teachers were magnificent my child left knowing all the things to prepare her for kindergarten ; her name in cursive her alphabet weather dates days months etc. And so much more. Mrs Harley made such an impression on our children forever, I cannot wait till its time to send our tiniest here. Finding the lighthouse was a blessing. Thank you Ms Jackie and Ms Anisa we are forever grateful for your facility.

  • I cannot say enough great things about this daycare. The staff are absolutely amazing. Caring, professional, and truly dedicated to the children and families they serve. From day one, we have felt welcomed and supported. Everything is always organized, communication is excellent, and the center runs so smoothly. It is clear that everyone works hard and takes pride in what they do. The love, patience, and attention they give the children do not go unnoticed. Finding people you can trust with your children is priceless, and this daycare has exceeded our expectations in every way. We are incredibly grateful for all that they do and HIGHLY recommend them to any family looking for a safe, nurturing, and positive environment for their children.

  • The Lighthouse Early Care and Education center is a great place to bring your kiddos. The atmosphere is inviting and the rooms are organized and kid friendly. Our family enjoys the activities and events they put on for the families that attend, and the local community. I highly recommend The Lighthouse!

  • Finding this program has been a total game changer for my family, and I cannot recommend it enough! The seamless partnership with my son’s school for pick-ups and drop-offs is a lifesaver that helps me more than I can say, and it gives me such peace of mind knowing he is in great hands. My son absolutely loves his driver, Mr. B, and the entire staff is incredibly amazing and helpful, especially when it comes to making sure he gets his homework completed every day. The director, Anissa, has such a loving heart and truly goes above and beyond for the kids + parents, while the owner, Jackie, is so relatable and caring that she feels just like family. It is clear that Jackie strives to make this program the very best it can be, and I am so grateful for the care and dedication they show my son!

  • The Lighthouse is a loving community of caregivers. My 2 year old has been coming for full day daycare for just under a year now. I have seen a lot of social growth with her since she has been attending. The teachers and staff are great and communicate well with the parents. Teacher retention is high, so the children typically have the same teacher until they age out of their class, which provides a lot of stability for the kids. We’ve had a great experience here.

Questions parents ask about The Lighthouse Early Care and Education

How many infants and toddlers can The Lighthouse Early Care and Education take?

Colorado licenses The Lighthouse Early Care and Education for 14 toddlers. These are the bands the state publishes separately and they do not add up to the licence total, so treat each as its own ceiling. A licensed place is not the same as an open place, so ask about current availability.

Who can help me find child care near The Lighthouse Early Care and Education?

The Lighthouse Early Care and Education sits in the area covered by the Alliance for Kids and the referral agency Alliance for Kids. Colorado funds these bodies to help families find and pay for care locally, and they can answer questions about openings and cost that a licence record cannot.

Does The Lighthouse Early Care and Education accept CCCAP child care assistance?

Yes. The state record shows The Lighthouse Early Care and Education authorised for the Colorado Child Care Assistance Program. Authorisation means the provider can accept CCCAP families, not that it has a funded place open now, so ask before you apply.
