Bright Horizons at Tufts Medical Center

We are so thrilled with the care and experience that our son is receiving at this center. My husband and I both have challenging schedules so he uses the majority of the offered hours - he is always so happy to be there and loves his teachers. They also take public health/COVID very seriously, which we really appreciate. Highly recommend!

A chief marker of a school's success might be whether or not its students enjoy attending. My toddler son *adores* going to "school" (day care) at Bright Horizons at Tufts Medical Center (BHTMC). And I have some good reasons to understand why. The children operate on a regular schedule (designed to cultivate and reinforce self-sufficiency), reflective of the regularity with which the entire center seems to operate. From check-in to check-out, BHTMC appears to be a fairly well-oiled machine, with lots of room for daily improvisation. Highlights from the day are documented in the My Bright Day smart phone app, including photographic snapshots of scheduled activities and freeform playtime, so there is never any wonder what the little dude has been up to all day. As one might expect of an urban day care location, the clientele (and staff) is culturally diverse, and that diversity is smartly reflected in the activities and classroom materials. So far, Black History Month and Women's History month have been integrated into the curriculumand there has been, too, at the center of several activities, a celebration of the family, in all its many possible guises. The commonality of difference is an important value. Beyond the efficient organization and general feel-good spirit about the BHTMC, our son appears to learning: He demonstrates at home what he has done at school, and, conversely, what our son learns at home seems to be reinforced at Bright Horizons. His vocabulary, sensory awareness, and physical coordination, in particular, have all grown, we suspect, due to his daily encounters at BHTMC with art, music, yoga, "science," story time, etc. At the start of each day (following the daily COVID check), he bolts inside, and leaves each day with the glow of nine hours happily spent. I can only imagine that my son would, at this point offer: What is there not to recommend?

My experience at Bright Horizons is really one of the best! My baby girl finally is on a sleeping schedule, napping 2-3 hours a day and no more waking up in the middle of the nights, she is learning new and different things and socializing with other toddlers. Also, I love the app, where you can see during the day what she eats and what she does , with pics and videos too! Totally recommend it!!

Weve been with this Bright Horizins for both of our children for over five years and cant speak highly enough about the staff and teachers. Both of our children have absolutely loved coming here and its hard to get them in the car to come home. The teachers are fantastic and trustworthy and we are lucky to have found such a great environment for our kids!

We entrust our toddler son with the Bright Horizons team at Tufts Medical Center three days a week - and are thrilled with the care, education, and affection he receives there! We've been impressed by the level of thoughtfulness that goes into the various activities and love getting photos and updates throughout the day. The team has been so sensitive to his needs and he now literally runs into the center every morning, excited about the day ahead!
