Bright Horizons child care centers, preschools and schools include a premier early education curriculum and knowledgeable educators and teachers who meet the needs of children at every age and stage. At Bright Horizons, you’ll find infant or toddler care, preschool and pre K programs, kindergarten, elementary schools, and Montessori schools. We also understand the many needs of working parents.
I am happy with my choice to have my daughter at BH. We love the teachers and the facility is clean and bright. The teachers are patient, kind and my daughter enjoys them. The downsides of this center are the unhealthy snacks (graham crackers, craisins, packaged muffins, fruit cups) and low priority to maximize outdoor play. They are working to fix the menu.

Recently I toured this daycare and was impressed with how clean, organized, and friendly it was. The teacher I met seemed caring and professional, and I initially felt confident about enrolling my child.
During the visit, they mentioned that classes are sometimes combined or teachers are exchanged between rooms. I asked if, in such situations, only female staff could assist my child during potty time due to our family’s religious practice. The director refused and said that the center follows a policy of treating all staff equally regardless of gender and therefore couldn’t make that accommodation.
While I understand and respect their policy, we left feeling disappointed that there wasn’t a way to consider our religious needs. The center refunded my payment promptly, which I appreciated. I would recommend that families with similar considerations ask about such policies in advance to ensure a good fit.

My son attended from about 1 year old to a little over 4 yrs old and transitioned this fall to K4 in Wauwatosa. He is our only child and I did not have a lot of experience with small children before having him. They teachers and director, Kati Z, were so patient and kind to our family. There were a few issues over time that we had to deal with and they took the time to look into it and talk to their staff. No place is perfect - there will always be issues.
The curriculum is great - stem, art, play, etc. I felt very safe leaving my son there and am grateful for the time he spent there.
