  I have worked for preschools my entire working career. I have worked for private and corporate preschools. All had great points and some could use improvements in certain areas. Bright Horizons is among the best of the best that I have had the pleasure to work for. Teaching and caring and nurturing littles has always been a part of my being. I will almost always put their needs even before my own. (As a lot of preschool teachers do). That being said, Bright Horizons does an exceptionally amazing job putting my needs as a teacher and an employee at the same level as the parents and the children. The administration is constantly checking in to see how we are we are doing and to help accommodate our needs even if it means THEY step into the classroom to teach. The school will pay for any classroom supplies needed and will always provide what they can. The pay and benefits is beyond what I have ever expected. I can honestly say, here is where I plan on retiring. (Although that might be when I’m 80.).

  My daughter has been attending Bright Horizons at Newburyport since she was just 3 months old. As a first-time mother I was terrified to leave her with people I did not know, but from the moment we walked in the door on the first day, it was like seeing an old friend. The entire staff is wonderful. My daughter is not just a number or kid in the class, she is known as an individual and by her name! In the four short months she has been attending, she has learned and grown so much. Everyday she is up to something new and exciting. I love receiving photos and updates about her day and seeing all that she does. An explanation is provided regarding how each activity helps her develop. It is amazing to see the time and thought that is put into a curriculum for even babies. Everyone there really cares for her not just because it’s their job, because they love what they do. I would highly recommend Bright Horizons at Newburyport to anyone looking for childcare.

  My child was attending another daycare for a little over 1,5 years I was very unhappy with it and started to notice some different behavior - low sleep quality, anxiety and very hard drop offs.Even being a little concerned about adaptation I decided to move him to Bright Horizons.From day one I could tell the difference, the facility, the quality of toys and the super fun outdoors. Talking about the administration Staff and teachers is another special chapter. The level of training is noticeable - the positive reinforcement resulted in a happier kid! He never wants to leave school! Bed times are WAY easier, his development ramped in just two months! I could not be happier and thankful.Special thank you to Miss Amber that besides being a teacher treats him with love! That is how a school should be!

  Bright horizons has been a wonderful experience for us and our children! When searching for a place for our 3 newborn babies we were very appreciative at how accommodating they were. They have made my transition back to work (in office) an enjoyable experience and gave me piece of mind that my children are being well taken care of.

  There are few people in this world that I would allow to help raise our son. But I feel comfortable with everybody at the Bright Horizons Newburyport location. With our son going off to Kindergarten in a few weeks I feel like he is ready to take on the next step because of the amazing people there. Thanks for all you have done for us, you are an incredible group of people.

  I couldn’t have asked for a better childcare experience. All of my daughter’s teachers have been exceptional- better than I ever could have imagined! Management and leadership has been wonderful- highly responsive and they have done a wonderful job managing covid 19. The center is so neat and clean and such a happy place for my daughter!

  We have been part of the Bright Horizons family since our oldest child was 4 months old - he is now 4. We have nothing but excellent things to say about the Newburyport center, where we have spend the past 1.5 years. Our second is now starting in infants and even though we have been through everything already with our first, the care, attentiveness, compassion and engagement from the teachers and staff the second time around is as if we were going through this the first time - which is a huge sign of relief. The infant teachers help with keeping up with milestones, engagement with other children and have a genuine interest and love for our child and family.Our eldest spent time in preschool and kindergarten and the teachers are nothing but exceptional. The curriculum is engaging, challenging and fun all at the same time. We have seen so much progress with writing, letters, numbers and a love of learning and explorations that makes us proud to be members of the Bright Horizons family.Our family has two working parents and without Bright Horizons we would not be able to make it work. Their scheduling flexibility and hours are like no where else. We have loved and love our time with everything and everyone at Bright Horizons.

  My daughter Bella is now six. She was enrolled at Bright Horizons her first five years. She has since graduated and moved onto Kindergarten. One year later, I am so grateful to all the care and learning she received at BH. When Kindergarten ended abruptly four months early, it was concerning to me that she would miss all the creative spring activities that are part of kindergarten. Fortunately, Bella had her experience from Bright Horizons to fall back on. She frequently brought up memories about playtime, science, art, music, reading, writing, and her friendships with her teachers and classmates. This is what helped her get through the challenging time we are in. Even this summer, my daughter remembers all the birthday parties and playdates with her classmates. Thank you Bright Horizons!! Not only did you prepare my child for kindergarten, you also provided her with the skills to miss four months of kindergarten and still be ok.Sharon ColeParent

  We love the Bright Horizon's community at Newburyport! We couldn't imagine a better environment for our infant, especially during these times. My husband and I know our little one is getting the best care! She's learning new skills each day and couldn't be happier.

  Our two year old son has been enrolled at Bright Horizons Newburyport for the past year and we have loved our experiences with the center. Every staff member shows so much love, compassion, and warmth to the children in their care. As a parent, knowing your child is loved really makes going to work and leaving your child a less painful process. We love the fact that the center has great enrichment programs, very little turnover (which is rare in such a competitive industry), and always feels clean. I wish I could give the center more than 5 stars – they are phenomenal!

  We are proud to call both our kids ‘Bright Horizons kids.’ The programming and facilities are impeccable. Best part of our day is when we get an alert on the ‘My Bright Day’ app with a picture of our kids. That’s the afternoon pick-me-up you need!But what makes Newburyport Bright Horizons special are the people. The teachers are committed to making sure your child has the best day every day. They care so much about the kids. They know when your child is having an ‘off day’ and make sure he/she is comfortable. Often times, our kids don’t want to leave!Not only are the teachers great, but the parents are great as well. Many are dual-working families that have the same trials and tribulations that we have. It has a real ‘we’re in it together’ type vibe. We met most of our life-long friends through Bright Horizons.Highly recommend NBPT Bright Horizons, the teachers and the program!

  Our son has been attending Bright Horizons for 2 years now since he was 3 months old. We couldn't be happier with our childcare decision—the staff is incredible (they feel like family!), our son absolutely loves 'school' and all of his little friends and he learns so much. We also love the app they use, which sends us updates throughout the day so we feel connected to our little guy and what he is doing throughout his days. Highly recommend BH of NBPT!

  Highly recommend Bright Horizon's Newburyport to anyone looking for early education options in the area. The facilities are impeccable - bright, clean and full of engaging items.Our son flourished in their toddler program. His teachers took a genuine interest in his success and the curriculum was well thought out. Our son loved the variety - reading, art, music, cooking and even yoga! He's made friends, increased his vocabulary and has absorbed so much. We are amazed at how much he's learned and have the staff at BH to thank.We also really appreciate the care shown to our little guy when he was not feeling well or having a tough day.

  This center is excellent. The teachers are tenured, and care a lot about the kids. They're creative, compassionate, and know how to nurture their development. The center director is engaged and knows all the parents and kids, and takes the time to talk to you. They run a tight ship and take excellent care of their students, and also give them room to be kids. Highly recommend.

  The Director, Jen, and all the teachers are fantastic! My daughter is learning so much in the Kindergarten Prep classroom, and I know she will be ready for Kindergarten coming out of this program.
