    Our daughter started in the Toddler Room at Bright Horizons and continued through Kindergarten Prep. She had many caregivers over the years because of high turnover; however, most of her teachers appeared to be happy working there but eventually left to continue their education. Despite the turnover, most of her teachers were very caring and attentive to her individual needs and responsive to feedback. Although she was the only non-walker in the toddler classroom, her teachers were very accommodating. They even had the great recommendation that she wear Crocs instead of shoes because she had wide feet and the Crocs would give her better support. As she entered the Preschool and KPrep classrooms, she was typically happy at dropoff and many days at pickup it was difficult to pull her away from her friends and activities. Each classroom has a well-outlined curriculum to introduce kids to various concepts and aspects of the world around them, and to help them build their independence. The teachers also kept an individualized journal for her with anecdotes illustrating her developmental milestones, and this journal is now a treasured keepsake. As a side note, over the years several of her teachers babysat for us without incident. Finally, this Bright Horizons location is also extremely reliable in terms of remaining opening during inclement weather.

    Young staff who are very responsive to questions and concerns, but it is a for-profit company, so incentives are not always aligned. (For example, you pay by the month, but teachers are paid hourly, so if there are no kids because everyone is taking vacation, the teachers don't get paid). Quite a bit of turnover in the staff, which is concerning.
