We have had a great experience. Pricy, but great staff, clean classrooms, and easier mornings with breakfast and lunch provided. I’ve had two happy kids go through the center.

We’ve been with the center since 2018 and have had our 2 boys here in all class levels. We’ve always been very happy and especially love the low level of staff turnover. My preschooler has the same teacher that my now 1st grader had when he was that age. The teachers do a great job of engaging the children, encouraging independence, communicating with parents, and ultimately preparing the kids for kindergarten!

Great agency in general, but the people make the program… We have been blessed with AMAZING teachers and WONDERFUL administrators at this location. I have the utmost confidence that my daughters are well cared for and learning every day they go. Highly recommend this center to anyone looking for a great childcare option!!

Highly recommend BH Northbrook. Great staff that is very attentive and I always feel at ease dropping my son off there each day which says a lot! Meals are cooked in house and they have been very careful and have great protocols in place for kids with food allergies.

Highly recommend Bright Horizons. We started my son here in the Young Preschool class when he was 2.5 and we had just moved to Glenview from the city. He's now moved all the way up to the Kindergarten Prep class over the past few years and I also have a younger son in their Young Preschool class who started in the infant room when he was 3 months old.Everything a parent cares about in a daycare they achieve. I am impressed with the curriculum and how much both my boys are learning. Their teachers all have been teaching there for many years, which was great compared to the high turnover we saw at daycares in the city. The facilities are new, clean, and safe with different playgrounds based on age and a large indoor gym. They have also handled COVID very well and very clearly adhere to all daycare regulations (both pre-COVID and during COVID).They communicate daily through the app and teachers/directors are very easy to get in contact with via phone or email. We've been at this daycare for 2.5 years and have been impressed with both the organization and communication from this school. I'm very happy we made the decision to send our kids here!

After researching and almost trying different day care centres, we ended up with Bright Horizons at Northbrook. That turned out to be the best decision we took! They(Miss Daniel Center - previous director and Miss Carrie- Current director) took the time and patience to transition our son from infant to toddler and we didn't have any issues with that. Miss Sam ,Miss Erica, Miss Bonnie are the best they helped my son through infant class room.The staff(Miss Kristen,Miss Tracy) are very friendly, always willing to hear our concerns and suggestions if any (we hardly have them). Miss Lorrie, Miss Halima, Miss Mitchell and all the resource teachers took good care of my son in toddler class roomHappy to see our son well adjusted and also, having fun with teachers and other kids. Chef Dan cooks amazing food for the kids and my son has improved a lot with the variety of foods.Highly recommended!

We are very happy to be part of the BH Northbrook family! When we were touring the location prior to my daughter's birth, we were impressed by the curriculum, the quality of the teachers and staff, and loved the outdoor play spaces available to the kids--and it has not disappointed in the year we've been there.I especially love that books are always out and available in the classroom; some of the other comparable large day care centers in the area only brought out books during specific reading times. I also love that food is provided and that no uniforms are required.

We did our homework when searching for the right daycare for our little one. All would agree, leaving your child /children in the hands of others is a big decision. Bright Horizons at Northbrook has exceeded our expectations; great curriculum that fosters growth and development, warm and loving staff and a team that appreciates their community of families. All of these have contributed to the fact that our little one is thriving. The center is very friendly, clean and well run administratively.

As their Spanish Enrichment provider, I have the privilege of working with some of the most caring, capable and conscientious teachers every week at Bright Horizons at Northbrook. I really appreciate the clean and thoughtfully laid out classrooms and am always impressed with the artwork and activities that are out for the children. Everything is with purpose and very engaging and child-centered. Children are well-cared for with nurturing and fun-loving hands. As impressed as I am with the facility and Carrie Stanek's terrific direction, the teachers are what really make BH at Northbrook so exceptional. For example, Miss Jen and Miss Kristin in Kindergarten Prep are stupendous teachers! They are usually working to put together another fabulous activity or lesson for the children as I teach Spanish, and yet, they are paying attention to my lesson to help reinforce it later. They make it a point to tell me what the children retained and were excited about in my absence which makes me a better teacher! It's truly a delight to walk into BH every week!

During my winter break, we decided to check out Bright Horizons and I am so glad we did. I will always remember the way a teacher, Miss Lori, greeted a student: a huge smile and a hug. I was sold! As an educator, I can immediately tell when children are valued and I can say that each staff member at Bright Horizons genuinely loves working with children. Every activity has a clear purpose. Our daughter has shown wonderful gross development progress after a short amount of time at Bright Horizons. Her teacher, Ms. Halima,treats our daughter as an individual and goes above and beyond to support her development needs. In addition, our daughter LOVES school. She doesn’t want to leave and insists on saying goodbye to each teacher. She learned Ms. Michelle’s name after one week. This provides more evidence that each teacher regardless of classroom, takes the time to make a meaningful connection with each child. Lastly, the administration is a dream. Ms. Carrie and Ms. Laura are excellent directors and work hands on with the students. We could not be happier with Bright Horizons. My only regret is that we didn’t switch earlier.

I cannot day enough great things about Bright Horizons! Our children have been in the young preschool, preschool, and kindergarten prep classrooms, and every teacher has been fabulous. They are always changing up the activities and making learning fun. It is a great balance of playtime and academics, all in a nurturing environment. There are special activities like yoga, dance, and Spanish lessons, along with plenty of playtime inside and outdoors. Chef Dan cooks delicious and healthy food for the children daily - breakfast, lunch, snack, and there is even a snack to go in the lobby. The communication is top notch, with pictures, potty, and meal updates all sent each day through an app. At drop off and pick up, the front desk staff and teachers are always friendly and provide an update about the day. All of the families we've met are super friendly, and my kids often don't want to leave when it's time to go home. As a teacher myself, I can confidently say that my children will be more than prepared for kindergarten thanks to Bright Horizons.
