  We've had two children at this center — one has since moved on to 'big school' but we still have one at the center and I am not looking forward to when we have to say goodbyes. From day one, the professionalism and genuine care the staff bring to their work has been evident — you can tell they truly love what they do and treat every child with warmth and attention. The curriculum offers a wonderful variety of activities and lessons, keeping the kids engaged while building real skills. Meals are thoughtfully balanced and nutritious, which we really appreciate as parents. Communication has been outstanding throughout — we always feel informed about our children's day, progress, and any concerns, and the staff make themselves available whenever we have questions. What stands out most is how well they prepare children for kindergarten. Our older child transitioned smoothly and confidently, thanks to the strong foundation built here, and we know our younger one will be just as ready when the time comes. The staff don't just care for the children — they support us as parents too, offering guidance and reassurance every step of the way. We are so grateful for this school and know we'll miss it dearly once our time here is done. We wholeheartedly recommend it to any family looking for a nurturing, professional, and well-run school.

  My family couldn't be happier with the care our daughter gets at Bright Horizons at Inova Fair Oaks! Our daughter has been going there for two+ years, and the experience has been incredible. Every single teacher has loved and cared for my daughter like their own child, and my daughter truly loves her teachers, and I feel that love radiating back from them. Also, the administration is very communicative and do a great job at managing the center. The director/assistance director are always so positive and approachable, and they have been very accommodating to our family’s needs. They are more than a daycare/preschool – they are like a second family to us!! My daughter, who used to very shy, feels so comfortable engaging in class and interacting with her peers and her teachers, knowing that she will receive the support and encouragement she needs. The curriculum is tailored to meet the diverse needs and interests of each student, and it promotes academic and social/emotional development. Since joining this center, I’ve seen a great deal of growth in my daughter’s skills and confidence. The facilities are clean, organized, and well-maintained. They are equipped with a variety of educational toys and activities designed to foster child’s development. I couldn’t ask for a better place for her to be! I highly recommend this center to any parent looking for a safe, engaging, and loving place for their child.

  I am so thankful to have found this gem of a school. My son is only 10 months old but has multiple severe food allergies. I am that helicopter mom who is constantly worried about their baby but the Center leadership and teachers here are all so patient, understanding, and accommodating. I feel so at peace when I leave my son at school! If you're looking for a high-quality care and education for your child, THIS is the school to bring them to.

  Bright Horizons at Fair Oaks was our first experience in childcare in the U.S. My three little kids (5 years old, 2.5 years old, 2.5 months old) had a great time there. I cried to say good bye to their teachers when I had to move them to another center due to our limited financial budget. The director, Ms. Melanie and her management staff take care of the center so well. Whenever we called, they knew exactly what happened to each of our children, giving us advice and updating us frequently. The center is clean and safe. My kids were very happy when they entered their classes every morning and came home big smiles every evening. Special thanks to the teachers at the infant room, Toddler 2 and PreK. They are so amazing and warm-hearted. Ms. Heidi and PK gave me many warm hugs when I was feeling down. I missed them a lot.
