Celebrating Every Kind of Hero

Inclusive, trauma-informed character experiences designed to create safe joy, healing, and belonging.

More Than Magic. We're Lightkeepers. 🪄

We believe that every child is the hero of their own story, and that joy is a powerful, sparkling shield. As a program of Lighthouse Risk and Readiness Group, The Lightkeepers blends whimsical storytelling with trauma-informed care to create magical experiences where children are celebrated, seen, and empowered to shine as brightly as they can.

​

Our mission is to do more than just entertain. We understand that fun and safety are deeply connected. Our trauma-informed approach ensures that every interaction, every story, and every moment is designed to make children feel truly seen and secure. We believe that by celebrating every child's unique identity, we are creating a protective space where they can be their authentic selves.

​

Our performers are trained to recognize and respond with empathy, turning every visit into a mindful, empowering experience. When children feel safe, they are free to laugh, play, and build joyful memories that will last a lifetime.

​

This commitment extends to creating neurodivergent-affirming spaces. We train our performers to be mindful of sensory needs, communication styles, and respecting personal space. By understanding and celebrating the unique ways all children interact with the world, we create environments that feel calm, predictable, and, most importantly, joyful. 

Inclusion Is a Protective Factor

1

Inclusion is Safety

When children see heroes who look like them, they feel safer, more valued, and deeply connected. We create spaces where every identity is treasured and every child feels free to dream, play, and sparkle.

Representation is Healing

Seeing oneself in a hero fosters trust, emotional regulation, and belonging. This isn't just about visibility; it’s about building resilience and reducing harm, one joyful moment at a time.

Joy is Resilience

We believe joy is a protective shield. Our performers create magical memories that twinkle with compassion, helping children build the inner strength to navigate their worlds.

Trauma-Informed, Safety-First Approach

  • Every Lightkeeper is trained in trauma-informed practices, child safeguarding, and emotional safety.

​​

  • We create environments where children feel seen, safe, and celebrated, especially those who’ve experienced trauma, sensory sensitivities, or anxiety.

​​​​

Inclusive Representation as a Protective Factor

  • Our performers reflect the diverse backgrounds, abilities, and identities of the children we serve.

​​

  • Seeing characters who “look like me” fosters belonging, confidence, and emotional security.

​​

  • By celebrating every kind of hero, we ensure that every child feels validated and valued.

Experiences Designed to Heal and Empower

  • Every event is crafted with developmental needs and emotional well-being in mind.

​

  • We integrate storytelling and representation to build resilience and inspire confidence.

​

  • Our goal is to leave each child with more than a memory, we leave them with a mirror of their worth.

 Mission-Driven Parent Organization

  • Our foundation is rooted in research-based practices and community well-being.

​

  • Parents, schools, and hospitals trust us because we bring the same integrity and professionalism that Lighthouse is known for.

​​

  • This alignment means we’re mission-driven, not just market-driven.

“An absolutely wonderful and professional experience. They brought so much light to our hospital ward.”
