Bright Horizons Ocean Park is an exceptional care facility. We've had two children there for about four years, and in that time, they've had an incredible experience across various classrooms and teachers. Both the the administration (Nara, Nelly, Nicole, and more) and staff treated and nurtured them like family, and have instilled great lessons around friendship, respect, and creativity. There has been excellent communication and care for our kids. We're so grateful for our time there.

Started our little ones here back in 2016 and would do it all over again.
Pros:
1. Excellent teachers who actually care about the development of the children
2. The center's administration (including Nara, the director) navigated Covid waters brilliantly, ensuring strict safety protocols that led to minimal downtime and closures
3. Hours are great for working parents
4. Their app which documents the kids' day, complete with photo/videos that the teachers upload daily
Cons:
1. After giving this a lot of thought so my review is objective, I honestly can't think of a single one

I love this place and feel so thankful we found it. We moved my daughter here for KPrep (from another preschool) when my son started here in the Twos program, and I realized how superior it was to the other school my daughter attended. We are so happy with everything about this school. It’s well-run, the teachers and staff are friendly, and our kids love going to preschool here. They’ll both be here until kindergarten, and they’ll be well prepared for their educational journey. I wish we had started at Bright Horizons much earlier. Based on what I’ve seen and heard from parents, the infant program is wonderful as well. You’d be lucky to be a part of the Bright Horizons community.
