We cannot recommend bright horizons enough. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable, caring and supportive. Always willing to work with the child(ren) and parents and meet them where they are developmentally. They have great tips and tricks, go the extra mile and truly care for your child(ren). Each child is not just another number to them. They know your child(ren) likes and dislikes- what makes they smile, what activities they enjoy, how they react when they are sad or mad and how to comfort them. They know what makes each child unique and fosters their independence, teaches them social-emotional intelligence as well as the other forms of intelligence, brings creativity to the forefront of their curriculum. The teachers and staff communicate with families well, address and questions or concerns promptly and are always there with a smile and friendly greeting.

We absolutely love Davis Square Bright Horizons. Our two children have been enrolled here for about a year each, and the teachers and staff are consistently wonderful, kind, and caring. The classroom environments are welcoming and engaging, and it genuinely warms my heart to watch my daughter excitedly run into the arms of her favorite teachers each morning at drop-off. The teachers do a fantastic job of sharing photos throughout the day, many of which have earned a spot in our yearly family photo albums. It's clear how much thought and care everyone puts into nurturing the children. While tuition is a significant investment, it's absolutely worth every penny. The administration maintains excellent communication and stays well-informed about each child's progress and well-being. We feel incredibly fortunate that our kids are able to receive care here.

Can't say enough wonderful things about the Bright Horizons in Davis sq! From the infant room up to K-prep, it has been a truly wonderful experience for both our kids and for us as parents. We're constantly amazed at what our kids get to experience and learn each day (recent favorites have been the kids showing us how they can write their own names and teaching us the newest mindfulness breathing exercise they learned), and the teachers themselves are so thoughtful and caring. More broadly, the center is run so professionally, has great hours and limited days closed, is bright and clean with great features (like the movement zone and STEAM lab), and provides important consistency for us as working parents. So glad we found this center!
