  Update in 2024: We now have two children enrolled at Bright Horizons at TMC (infants and pre-school) and continue to be thrilled with the care they both receive and the hours/flexibility/assistance in raising our kids provided by the staff here. They have been so patient with our son as he navigates potty training, and continue to promote his learning at an age appropriate level. Our daughter has been in infants since 3mo (she is now 9 months) and she is so comfortable there. She's always happy to see her teachers and is meeting milestones and then some. Original Post: We are so thrilled with the care and experience that our son is receiving at this center. My husband and I both have challenging schedules so he uses the majority of the offered hours - he is always so happy to be there and loves his teachers. They also take public health/COVID very seriously, which we really appreciate. Highly recommend!

  A chief marker of a school's success might be whether or not its students enjoy attending. My toddler son *adores* going to "school" (day care) at Bright Horizons at Tufts Medical Center (BHTMC). And I have some good reasons to understand why. The children operate on a regular schedule (designed to cultivate and reinforce self-sufficiency), reflective of the regularity with which the entire center seems to operate. From check-in to check-out, BHTMC appears to be a fairly well-oiled machine, with lots of room for daily improvisation. Highlights from the day are documented in the My Bright Day smart phone app, including photographic snapshots of scheduled activities and freeform playtime, so there is never any wonder what the little dude has been up to all day. As one might expect of an urban day care location, the clientele (and staff) is culturally diverse, and that diversity is smartly reflected in the activities and classroom materials. So far, Black History Month and Women's History month have been integrated into the curriculum—and there has been, too, at the center of several activities, a celebration of the family, in all its many possible guises. The commonality of difference is an important value. Beyond the efficient organization and general feel-good spirit about the BHTMC, our son appears to learning: He demonstrates at home what he has done at school, and, conversely, what our son learns at home seems to be reinforced at Bright Horizons. His vocabulary, sensory awareness, and physical coordination, in particular, have all grown, we suspect, due to his daily encounters at BHTMC with art, music, yoga, "science," story time, etc. At the start of each day (following the daily COVID check), he bolts inside, and leaves each day with the glow of nine hours happily spent. I can only imagine that my son would, at this point offer: What is there not to recommend?

  We’ve been with this Bright Horizins for both of our children for over five years and can’t speak highly enough about the staff and teachers. Both of our children have absolutely loved coming here and it’s hard to get them in the car to come home. The teachers are fantastic and trustworthy and we are lucky to have found such a great environment for our kids!

  Our girls Isabella and Charlotte AKA “Cookie” have thrived at Bright Horizons! The staff has made us feel like family and continue to prepare them for the next step of their education. I see the growth both mentally and emotionally every week. We could not be happier with our experience at Bright Horizons and and the highly skilled staff.
