We are building on this momentum by providing a high quality early education and child care option in Pennsylvania communities.”Schweikert says Lightbridge Academy goes beyond offering a solid early education curriculum and care for children by supporting parents through a suite of industry-leading technology solutions including ParentView® Internet Monitoring, a parent eCommunication app, and state-of-the-art facial recognition entry and security systems.&nbsp;Dirugeris says Lightbridge Academy participates in franchise shows around the country to raise awareness about the brand’s unique offering and connect with as many potential franchisees as possible to support the brand’s growth.“We spend the time meeting with people face to face,” said DiRugeris. “Some know the type of business they want and are looking to meet franchisors in a specific industry, and others are just beginning to explore. They know they want to be in business for themselves but haven’t yet discovered what that is. Those are the people we enjoy talking to the most. Some just know they want to make a difference and through our conversations, they realize educational child care is a high demand industry that is incredibly rewarding, with great work/life balance and room for growth.”To learn more about franchising with Lightbridge Academy, visit <a href="https://1851franchise.com/lightbridgeacademy">https://1851franchise.com/lightbridgeacademy</a>.&nbsp;
