It was a bittersweet week as my oldest child started kindergarten. As I’ve watched her these last few days, bravely introducing herself to her new teacher and classmates, putting on her sweatshirt, zipping it up and jumping into play without hesitation despite not knowing anyone. Getting back in line and patiently waiting to head into the classroom, excitedly pointing to her name on the wall as she walked into the class. It all reminded me of how BHOTC has prepared her. She started at the center in January 2018 and every ste... read more

We started at Bright Horizons on the Charles when our daughter was 16 weeks old. Our experience there completely exceeded our expectations (and they were high). As first time parents, we needed a lot of reassurance and they went above and beyond to provide it. They offered so much time and advice as we were navigating the various stages of early parenthood, and our teachers were accessible through weekly zoom calls for questions and information on our daughter’s development. Their encouragement meant everything to us. Their ... read more

My daughter loves going to school and most often doesn't want to come home when we pick her up. Her teachers are amazing and I feel comforted knowing that she is safe and happy.

I feel very fortunate to send my children to a school where I know they are safe and their growth is nurtured everyday. The curriculum is wonderful. The teachers do a fantastic job of implementing creative and exciting activities in their classroom to meet the individual needs of the children and the class as a whole. I also love the app. I check it regularly throughout my day. It gives me peace of mind and the ability to easily bring the topics/lessons of the week and day into our nighttime routine. I highly recommend BH on... read more

Was a good center till the current Directer Melissa came to the center . Before there were good teachers that cared for the students and a Directer that had a passion for what she was doing . Current director is all about running a business and could careless about the children . All her good teachers have left and she fills them in with young ladies and gentlemen who don't have degrees and don't know how to handle the children .
