    Our son has loved going here so far, he seems to have a ton of fun and we believe he gets a lot of mental, social, and sensory stimulation while he's here. Love the updates throughout the day and the pictures they send are always great. His teachers are absolutely wonderful and give amazing feedback on how his day went or advancements he has made. They work so hard to take care of him and he loves them. The center also hosts several activities throughout the year for the kids that are so fun and cute like fall fest, stem fest, truck day, etc. Really happy with our experience here!

    First and foremost, there are some exceptional curriculum coaches and teachers at Harrison park! My son had a wonderful first 2 years. Unfortunately, his 2s experience was less than ideal. He had six teachers in 7 months. My lil dude doesn’t do great with inconsistency due to his autistic older brother and looks to his parents & adult support system to help regulate. Unfortunately, his last teacher and him did not jive. He was anxious and crying on his way to school which was never a thing prior to her entry. The last few months we were at BH the administration recommended an OT for my son. We happily got one because we love OTs ( they have helped my older son evolve a ton). After an evaluation and half an dozen seasons she assured us that my son was typically developing and when she asked the teachers in my son’s class they really didn’t have a lot of examples except that he was having meltdowns. Which is understandable seeing that they didn’t have the bandwidth to give much 1 on 1 attention. So much so that my son tried to escape the room twice / act out for attention. After that they deemed him “ unsafe” and put him on a 90 day suspension. He is 2. We obviously left the school permanently because we felt a) it’s their job to make sure he stays in the classroom 2) I started to get anxious going to school and questioned my parenting 3) they were clearly pushing us out and we both work full time and we can’t have our kid out of school for 3 months. All this to say, bright horizons is a publicly traded company and if you don’t fit the rigid mold they push you out. But it was a blessing because now we have our happy son back and he isn’t spinning out and trying to escape his new school. I share this now 2 months after the incident because I just want to save parents time. If your kid isn’t an angel or may have a difficult situation at home this may not be the place for your family. We found that the administration lacked empathy. Just our experience.

    Good communication with teachers and admin staff. I appreciate the part time options and love how the schedule and supportive teachers have helped my, slow to warm, child ease into the preschool routine. Family events are fun and cute as well!

    We have loved our experience here! The teachers are incredible, special shoutout to infant 2 - Ms. Sharde and Ms. Jahmilia! While these have been her primary teachers, all of the teachers and staff are fantastic. They truly make an effort to get to know all of the kids and you can see the genuine love and care that they have in their work. The app they use provides so many updates throughout the day and they post almost daily pictures of what your little one is doing/learning. They were responsive to any and all feedback that I had, which I appreciated as a first time mom. They have helped navigate being first time parents by encouraging us to start the menu (which is fantastic!) and helping figure the correct amounts in bottles as she was growing. Honestly, I could go on and on about how amazing our experience has been! Truly thoughtful teachers, very engaged staff, and such a welcoming environment. Very sad to be leaving, but would be a hard commute since we are moving out of state. Would HIGHLY recommend!!!
