My name is Elina.  When my husband and I were looking to start a business, we had several criteria we wanted to meet. First, we wanted to start a business we knew would help others and make a difference in people’s lives. Second, we wanted a business that would take the commitment we have for education for our two boys and bring that to other families. Finally, it would have to be something we wholeheartedly believed in. Educational based childcare became the perfect choice.

One of the biggest challenges we faced for the last 10 years has been childcare for our boys. We’ve used a number of different childcare centers with our boys but we’ve always dreamed of finding something truly different.  When we decided that we were going to open a childcare center we knew we had to build a center that concentrated on education while providing the kind of safe and caring environment where children could thrive.  We are going to build the center we always dreamed about. After a long search, we found Children’s Lighthouse and were immediately drawn to their unparalleled curriculum, extraordinary safety standards, and community focused mission. We were so convinced of their model that we took on the challenge to be the first to bring the model to Colorado.

As parents we have the highest expectations in what we want for our children and we want to provide that for all the children & families in the community. I want to take the stress off of the parents' plates because I know how hard it can be.

We are going to create a wonderful, caring environment of learning that will empower your children every day. It’s going to be something very special at Children's Lighthouse in beautiful Parker, Colorado. I’m so excited for the opportunity to impact so many lives and provide your children with the building blocks for a lifetime of learning.
