Little Lighthouse

The Little Lighthouse (Blind Babies Program)

The Little Lighthouse programs was established to give children beginning at birth an opportunity to begin discovering our world as the sighted population does. The Lighthouse believes that education and training is never ending and the earlier one can get started the better for the child and family. Life is always changing and we are here to provide you with support. Our focus is on the individual child and progresses throughout adulthood.
