    Bright horizons has been very good for our family and the teachers. There all really show how much they care. You can really tell the difference in quality of care in Bright horizons versus a smaller daycare. You get what you pay for

    Our toddler attended this daycare for approximately 6 months. The biggest reason for fewer stars is COST--much more than similar daycare centers in the area. We switched to a different center and are saving $600/month, so it is a big deal. Like other daycare centers, this one has issues with turnover, so we had 3 or 4 changes during our tenure. In the end, we were concerned with the amount of attention the toddlers were receiving because at pick up and drop off, one caregiver was frequently sitting on the ground, not interacting with the children. The menu was another source of consternation for me as the food was the same every week, and was very carb focused, with very little meat. The admin were responsive when we reached out to them, but when I tried emailing the toddler caregivers specifically, I would not hear back.
