Teachers who know your child by name

A child’s experience in the classroom is only as strong as the teacher standing in front of them — so we invest in ours, continuously.

Melissa Fernandez, Founder & Director of Schools

Every teacher at Lighthouse is trained and mentored under the same philosophy Melissa built the school on 26 years ago: small classes, real relationships, and a child who is known — not just enrolled.

WHAT WE LOOK FOR

Experienced, safety-vetted, and always growing

Experienced & continuously trained

Every teacher brings real early-childhood experience, then keeps building on it — training doesn’t stop after they join.

Safety-vetted

Every adult in a Lighthouse classroom is background-checked before they ever meet your child.

Coached in warmth, not just curriculum

We train every teacher on how they connect with children and parents, not only on lesson plans — because that’s a skill we build, not just hire for.

New and developing teachers are never left to lead a room alone — every classroom is anchored by a lead or senior teacher, with close mentorship until they’re ready.

HOW WE INVEST IN OUR TEACHERS

Teachers who keep growing, keep teaching well

Our teachers train weekly — in bilingual pedagogy, classroom management, and child development — because a growing teacher makes a better classroom.

Classroom Teacher→Lead Teacher→Senior Teacher→Leadership

Every classroom is anchored by a lead or senior teacher, and newer teachers are closely mentored before leading a room on their own — growth here happens with support, not alone.
