## Story

Leading early education and child care franchise brand with more than 50 open units, Lightbridge Academy, has plans for a new building in Bucks County, Pennsylvania.

According to Bucks Local News, the development includes equipping the facility with ParentView, which allows parents to remotely check in on what their child is doing at any point throughout the day.

“It gives parents peace of mind,” said founder and CEO Guy Falzarano to Bucks Local News. “It’s the hardest thing to do to put your child in the care of strangers. If we can take away some of that anxiety, we try to do that. We’ve been offering this service since 1998 when we started it with dial-up. Now it’s all streaming video. It’s all broadband so it’s good quality.”

The brand also provides parents with an e-communications system in which teachers take photos with a tablet throughout the course of the day to document the child’s day, sending touchpoints to parents and making their portfolio easily accessible through an app.

The building will have a state of the art HVAC system that puts Lightbridge Academy ahead of the curve in regards to COVID protocols, implementing The Lightbridge Promise, in which the company does everything in its power to prioritized the health and safety of families that enroll at the center.
