Lighthouse Early Learning Center, Crown Heights’ only dedicated preschool for children with special needs, is now open for enrollment for the 2024-2025 school year.
The program, which has been serving the local community for the past three years, is designed to meet the therapeutic needs of children aged 3-6.
Don’t Pull Your Kid Out Of Class
Therapy is built into the schedule, with occupational therapy (OT), physical therapy (PT), and speech therapy (ST) available on-site and as part of the program. This whole-child approach ensures that children receive all the help they need within one program.
Here, therapy and education are one and the same.
Work With A Team, Not A Dozen Separate Providers
Teachers at Lighthouse ELC are supervised by Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs), who create individualized programs for every student. The entire team of teachers, therapists, and BCBAs works closely with parents to get the best results for each child.
This Classroom Fits Your Child–Not The Other Way Around
It’s not fun being the odd one out. When children with special needs join mainstream preschools, their parents and providers need to work around the preschool system. The result? The kid feels different, constantly being pulled out of class or being the only one with a para.
At Lighthouse ELC, everything from the classrooms to the lessons to the equipment is designed to make space for each child and their unique needs. This tailored approach ensures that every child can thrive in an environment that is specifically designed for them. They aren’t the odd ones out: they’re the star of the show.
Make All The Difference With Early Intervention
Children’s brains are almost fully developed by age 6. That’s why early intervention is so crucial. When we give children with special needs the tools and support they need to learn fundamental skills, we are helping them thrive–and preventing heartache–in the future.
Enjoy Central Location and Tuition Reimbursements
Lighthouse ELC is conveniently situated in central Crown Heights, making it easy for parents to do drop-off and pickup. Families may also be eligible for tuition reimbursement.
