Trusted by parents and organizations around the world, Bright Horizons offers high-quality education and child care that’s designed for working families. Created by experts and facilitated by educators, our Tampa baby care centers feature classrooms made for exploring with teachers who will support your child’s big milestones today and their leaps toward the future tomorrow.
Each of our child care centers in Tampa provides care that’s individualized for the needs of your baby and your family.
- Discovery-based curriculum: Our early learning programs support each child’s natural curiosity and focus on what interests them most.
- One-to-one relationships: At Bright Horizons, your baby will have a primary caregiver — a knowledgeable, responsive teacher who spends time with them each day in one-to-one moments of caring, play, and communication. These exchanges build trust and strong relationships that allow your baby to feel valued and develop the self-confidence to explore the world more freely.
- Plans for working families: We’ll develop a personalized care plan that supports your daily and weekly schedule, your baby’s nutritional guidelines, and your unique needs.
- Welcoming environments: Our infant classrooms are sensory-rich spaces full of soft places for babies to safely explore as they learn to crawl, roll over, and pull up.
- A view of your baby’s day: Our app, My Bright Day, gives you daily real-time updates about what your child is doing and learning. From naptimes and diaper changes to photos and notes from caregivers, you’ll have detailed information about your baby’s progress at your fingertips.
The Bright Horizons curriculum
Babies are born with one very important job: to learn everything they can about the world and become the very best people they can be. Because we know learning starts on day one, our Tampa baby care centers feature classrooms and a curriculum designed to stimulate early learning.Our teaching methods differ from typical daycare centers in several key ways.
- Rather than lesson plans driven by pre-planned themes and adult ideas, we help children learn by exploring their own interests.
- Instead of simply focusing on teaching the right answers, we encourage questions and inquiries, value the process of learning and discovery, and inspire lifelong learning skills.
- Our spaces provide playful, joyful, and inclusive environments and experiences that combine multiple ways of learning and focus on whole-child development, rather than teaching children through rote learning methods such as flashcards and drills.

At Bright Horizons, our teachers are highly trained, passionate professionals who are making a career in early education. Parents have called our teachers “amazing” and “magical” for their ability to understand what makes each child tick and to use that knowledge to support ordinary moments and big developmental milestones. They nurture each child’s growth while honoring unique family routines. We support them with award-winning training and opportunities to further advance their careers and skills through certificate programs and college degrees (for free!).
