ABOUT US

OUR VALUES
Melissa Fernandez
Founder
BUILT BY EDUCATORS, INSPIRED BY CHILDREN
At Lighthouse Preschool, every programme — from gentle playgroups to our bilingual preschool — is built on one belief: children thrive when learning is created with expertise and guided by their natural wonder. Designed by passionate educators who deeply understand child development, our programmes are inspired by the voices, questions, and creativity of the children we serve. That’s why every experience feels meaningful, joyful, and personal.
Our tagline, “Built by Educators, Inspired by Children,” reflects this commitment. It highlights that our programmes are crafted by experienced professionals and centered around each child’s unique interests and needs, fostering creativity, exploration, and active learning.
A PRESCHOOL THAT FEELS LIKE FAMILY.
From day one, children and families join a close-knit community that celebrates individuality and growth. Whether just beginning to explore or preparing for school, Lighthouse offers a nurturing home where learning is joyful, connections are strong, and every child shines.

EFFECTIVE TEACHING PRACTICES
Play-based learning
Play is a natural way for young children to learn new concepts and skills. Incorporating play into daily lessons allows children to learn in a fun and engaging way.
Multi-sensory instruction
Children learn through all their senses. Hands-on activities, music, movement, and visual aids make learning more meaningful and memorable.
Individualized instruction
Each child learns at their own pace and in their unique way. Teachers differentiate instruction to meet the needs of every child in their classroom.
Positive reinforcement
Encourage children to try their best, and provide praise and positive reinforcement for their efforts. Children who feel good about themselves are more likely to be engaged and motivated learners.
Routines & expectations
Establishing clear expectations and routines helps children feel safe and secure in their learning environment. Routines provide structure and predictability, which helps children focus on learning.
Collaboration
Encourage children to work together to solve problems, share ideas, and learn from each other. Collaboration helps build important social-emotional skills and promotes a growth mindset.
Our experience with the bilingual play club has been fantastic; it’s both fun and educational. I find myself learning alongside my child, thanks to the teachers' valuable insights.
A standout moment was the recent sports day, which featured a real go-kart event at a parent’s facility. I was initially concerned about safety, but Teacher Melissa’s encouragement eased my worries, and the event turned out to be a fantastic success. The atmosphere was further enhanced by the students' enthusiastic cheerleading, which was multilingual and incredibly uplifting. The teachers even crafted unique medals for all participants, adding a special and memorable touch to the day.
Lighthouse Preschool has set a high bar for early education with its warm atmosphere, engaging curriculum, and strong sense of community. I'm grateful for the positive impact it has had on my child’s development.
I love that Lighthouse comprises of a whole bunch of trustworthy, fantastic educators. I find that the teachers there are all individuals who are passionate, fun and always know exactly how to engage with our Children. Lighthouse Preschool’s comprehensive and effective curriculum, particularly being bi-lingual, I believe, will build the core foundation needed for my son to excel in his Primary school years later on.
The fun and laughter that he brings home from school are lovely memories for us to cherish at his tender age.
