  • Our son loves the cottage school! He is always so happy at pick up! The teachers have really helped a lot with his speech.

    Kim FentonJul 27, 2025
  • The Cottage School is a great daycare. My three year old daughter has been enrolled there since the spring of 2024 and she absolutely loves it! They have amazing teachers, a great curriculum, and plenty of hands on play and learning both indoors and out. They provide meals, snacks, nap time, and truly care for your child as part of their own family. Not only are they very clean and safe, but they’re almost done constructing a huge brand new playground for the kids!! As a single mom of an only child going back to work was one of the most difficult things I’ve faced since becoming a parent and finding a daycare I can TRUST with my daughter was a huge hurdle to get past, but The Cottage School has gone above and beyond putting me at ease while I’m at work. My daughter is so excited to go to daycare everyday where she is happy and comfortable. They have great owners who do everything they can for both of their daycares to be a great place for any family looking for childcare. They also have great rates and accept the ELRC program for assistance.

    Alexandria O'NeilJul 19, 2025
  • I am so pleased with our choice of sending my son to this school! Wonderful staff and the owners Lisa and Mike are such kind people who really make you feel welcome! They value how important it is to teach our children about Christ and to be kind and forgiving to others. My son comes home so happy each day after school and it has really made a positive difference for all of us! I would highly recommend The Cottage School to all families looking for a place to send their little ones!

  • We have found the perfect school! We love the Christian focus, the small class size and the excellent communication from the Director and Staff. Everyone is so welcoming and friendly. You can see that they love their jobs and want to be there educating the children. Zayn is doing fantastic. We are so pleased with his experience here and we are so happy to have found a welcoming, well rounded pre-school.

Does Pennsylvania record a negative sanction against LITTLE LIGHTS CHRISTIAN ACADEMY?

No. The state's provider dataset records no negative sanction against LITTLE LIGHTS CHRISTIAN ACADEMY at the time the record was published.

Does LITTLE LIGHTS CHRISTIAN ACADEMY accept child care subsidy?

Yes. LITTLE LIGHTS CHRISTIAN ACADEMY holds a subsidy agreement with the state. The agreement covers these age groups: Infant and toddler, Preschool. An agreement means the provider can bill the subsidy programme, not that a funded place is free today. Eligibility is decided by your Early Learning Resource Center, Early Learning Resource Center for Region 19.

Does this page show inspection results for LITTLE LIGHTS CHRISTIAN ACADEMY?

No. Pennsylvania completes at least one unannounced inspection a year at every licensed provider, and publishes the results through the provider search at compass.dhs.pa.gov/providersearch. Those results are not included here, and there is no open dataset of them, so nothing on this page reflects LITTLE LIGHTS CHRISTIAN ACADEMY's inspection history either way. Look the provider up there and read the licensing inspection record.
