  We have loved every one of my child's teachers. They are really caring and ensure that my child has fun and most importantly, is well taken care of. Communication is impeccable. They notify me of every diaper change, send me pictures, tell me how much food was eaten, and are really on top of everything.

  After the initial couple of years of the pandemic, we decided to reenroll our kiddos into daycare. We heard great things about Bright Horizons so we took a chance! It was one of the best decisions we've made thus far as parents. Catherine, the Director, is simply phenomenal! She is incredibly responsive, thoughtful, and empathetic to the parent and teacher experience; she works tirelessly to make sure her teachers/staff are supported and parents are informed and involved. The facility is adorable, cozy and warm, stocked with great learning and experienced-based tools and materials, and facilitates community and connection. We were previously in a daycare setting where the older classes did a lot of worksheets to help with kindergarten prep. Bright Horizons goes above and beyond and has a great grasp on the developmental process; they know how to use both structured and unstructured play to foster learning. Our youngest can write her first and last name, knows a lot of numbers, the months of the year, and the list is endless. I feel incredibly confident in her readiness for traditional school. I am beyond grateful for the experiences we had at Bright Horizons and I cannot rate them highly enough!

  BH was great with my older child but did not handle our special needs child well. Because of an awkward situation with him being a foster child (now adopted) they would not let my older son ( also at BH) visit with him during a temporary change in custody. This lead to high stress to both children, They also repeatedly gave my lactose intolerant son milk. The Pre-K teachers overall were great but I do not trust the administration.
