I have 2 grandchildren that have been going to this school since they were babies and now are ages 5 and 6. I have so much peace of mind knowing they are cared for every day by such an amazing staff. Great program and AWESOME school! We truly are very thankful for Bright Ideas.

This daycare provides a safe, structured, and caring environment for children to learn and grow. The staff is attentive and supportive, and it’s clear that the center prioritizes the well-being of every child. The director’s hard work and commitment to excellence are reflected in the overall quality of care. It’s a great option for families looking for a place where their child will feel cared for and supported each day.

My son was at this school since he was a 3 month old infant, and now a 3 year old, we finally made the decision to enroll him elsewhere. My son developed major behavioral problems being here. There’s no structure anymore here. Teachers (babysitters at this point) come and go constantly. Everytime I turn around there’s a new face. There’s been 3 directors in 1 year. This place is a revolving door which is an automatic red flag. The 3s room is extremely chaotic especially at pick up-the “teacher” usually just sits in the chair and never really gets up. This place encourages more free play than education, and god forbid if your child refuses to take a nap, they will call you to interrupt your work day to come pick up your kid since they don’t feel like dealing with them. The new director “keke” is beyond rude and unprofessional. They have random school closures, random “training” days, and close every single holiday so please make sure you have more than enough PTO to take from your job when enrolling your kid here- you will definitely need it. Overall I don’t recommend this place. There’s better out there.

I have 2 children here and have nothing but wonderful experiences. The teachers are like family and truly care about my babies. They are clean, efficient and communicate well. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for child care in the area.

My Granddaughter is in the toddler room and we absolutely love it! Her teachers Mrs Nicole and Ms Aida are phenomenal!! They do so many activities with the children music and movement, art, all focused on developmental growth. Mrs Nicole and Ms Aida are also very loving and caring. My granddaughter feels safe and comfortable with them. And I love all of the pictures and videos that I get throughout day on the brightwheel app! It makes my heart so happy seeing my granddaughter enjoying her day and surrounded by so my love. Thank Bright Ideas for having outstanding teachers to care for my baby girl.

My child had a great experience at Bright Ideas Enrichment Center. Prior to enrolling at this center, my child had some social emotional kinks that needed to be worked out. After he started at this center, he began to change in a positive way. He gained confidence in himself, felt cared for, and was even able to demonstrate that love to others around him. He had two wonderful Pre-K teachers Mrs. Rachel and Ms. Jamie, they always kept me abreast on his day, displayed patience, and genuinely showed care and concern for him. I am very thankful for the center and his teachers. We will miss you!
