Millie Lee, Founder and Owner of Children’s Lighthouse of Murrieta, saw a need for schools that placed value in character development, nurturing environments, and high-quality education. With an educational background in Primary Education and a mother of three children, Millie took matters into her own hands and built the Murrieta Lighthouse in 2014 with big hopes and dreams to serve families of Murrieta with care and excellence.

Rachel Choi, Millie’s firstborn, assumed responsibility as Center Owner in October of 2019. Rachel has worked in the Early Childhood field for 10 years and has a M.A Degree in Early Childhood Education from Biola University. Jazz Choi, Rachel’s husband, has a B.A Degree in Psychology and a M.A Degree in Divinity from Talbot School of Theology. Together they work onsite at the school daily in order to provide the best care for the children and families of Murrieta.

“It is with great joy that I commit to serving our Lighthouse families, children, and teachers. I believe that Early Childhood Education holds so much beauty and I want to use my education, experience, and ongoing training to provide the best care and support for your children. My mother built this school with a desire to bring excellence in Early Childhood Education and I will continue to follow through with her aspiration and build upon her legacy by making Children’s Lighthouse of Murrieta a beacon of light to the community.”
