I love teaching because: I love encouraging each child to be their unique and authentic selves. Watching their creativity and confidence bloom brings me such joy.
Veronica
I love Bright Horizons because: I like to listen. I want every student to know their voice matters. Also I get to experience the thrill of the "ah ha" moments all the time!
Alexandria
I love teaching because: I am inspired by the "Ah-ha!" Moments. Witnessing a child discover or master something new is so rewarding!

This depends on your child’s age, temperament, and level of maturity. General tips for preparing for the first day of child care include:
- Developing a relationship with your child’s teacher and keeping communication open
- Labeling all items
- Making sure your child has the essentials: bottles, extra clothes, diapers, blanket, and more
- Talking about the first day with your child
- Setting expectations for the new morning routine
- Getting ahead of separation anxiety by creating a “goodbye” routine together
Please submit an inquiry to your center(s) of interest with a request for tuition information. We recommend scheduling a visit at the same time (this can be done on the same form).
Safety is our top priority, and it’s part of our everyday routine. All of our centers follow expert-informed health, safety, and security policies and allergy protocols. Additionally, health, safety, and wellness are built right into our curriculum, and our classrooms and spaces are safely designed for learning and exploration.
