This review was long overdue. My child enjoyed their 9 months in the infant room at this location. The teachers provided great care and I would give them 5 stars. They would always provide updates about children’s day at pickup - what they enjoyed, something adorable they did, etc, which I loved. However, BrightPath policies, curriculum, and food options leave a lot to be desired.
In the infant room, they provide the teachers with activities for under 12m and over 12m, making a 13mo and a 17mo with vastly different capabilities learning from the same activities, with hardly any options for customization. This was especially unfair to my child who was behind on their milestones due to prematurity. I do not expect a personalized curriculum but at a minimum the activities should have options to customize to 2 to 3 month age groups.
They claim to make their meals from scratch in their kitchen but if you dig deeper, they rely heavily on canned and prepackaged food even for basic items like garlic bread (they serve Furlani garlic toast. In the Infant Room. Look up the ingredients for yourself). The cook was not happy I was asking so many questions and it is apparent why. They make substitutions or switch menu items and do not mark them in the communication app in the morning (or at all) which makes it impossible to provide substitutions from home. Their official stance (as expressed by the center director, area director, and director of operations) is that their food supplier Sysco may send substitutes such as flavored sugary yogurt or non-whole wheat bread/pita and this is not under their control. They would serve what is supplied. When questioned on this policy, I was asked to provide all meals from home. I was substituting almost half of the meals already. Substitution is not allowed toddler room onwards so this was not a long term solution anyway. If you are actually concerned with your child’s nutrition and not just “happy they ate something!” then please check their food policies before enrolling.
I thank the teachers for their care and support throughout - Anju, Fauzia, Sivajini, and Manpreet. My child grew really fond of them, especially Fauzia, and is sure to miss them.
To BrightPath: If you choose to reply to this review, please do not post any identifying info about my child in your reply. Everything I’ve said above has been communicated to you and I know your stance on these matters.

As a mom, my heart was anxious about leaving my 3-year-old in daycare for the first time. The amazing ECEs (Nav, Suzy and Roshan) turned all my worries into relief with their gentle, caring approach. I'm so happy to see how happy my little one is during the day. The wonderful office staff keeps communication flowing smoothly, and the director's dedication shows in every aspect of care. After two months here, this place feels like an extension of our family. If you're an anxious parent like I was, rest assured your little one will be in the most loving hands here!

My daughter had recently started going to BrightPath Matheson West this Sept and the experiences have been amazing. She has developed a lot in the last two months, especially with her communication. The staff at BP are wonderful, caring and professional. They provide above and beyond standard care services by keeping parents informed during the day and whats to coming. Special thanks to Amanda and the teachers in Toddler 1 class, you all have been exceptionally awesome. For parents who are looking for child care for their little ones, I definitely recommend enrolling your children at BP Matheson West but the waitlist can be long so I suggest to register fast.

We are so grateful to have Leia at BrightPath Matheson West! Since she started, she’s blossomed with the support, care, and enriching activities that this wonderful daycare provides. Leia absolutely loves her teachers and is always excited to tell us about her day and all her new friends and skills. The team here – led by Amanda and her caring staff – makes every day an adventure of learning and fun, and they go above and beyond to ensure each child is happy, safe, and supported.
One of the best parts for us as parents is the BP Connect app, which keeps us informed and connected throughout the day with updates and photos. Knowing Leia is thriving, engaged, and well cared for brings us such peace of mind. Thank you to everyone at BrightPath Matheson West for making Leia’s days joyful and memorable. We couldn't have chosen a better place for her!

Niaya, Mia, and Chinchu have been exceptional in supporting her, especially considering her special needs. The nurturing environment and engaging activities they provide truly enrich her experience.
I’m so grateful to have found such a fantastic daycare for my daughter. Thank you, Amanda and Simar, for all your support!

Fantastic daycare, my daughter started in September 2023 at the age of 2.5. It was a struggle at first because she’s never been away from me and my husband. Her teachers and the administrative staff went above and beyond with helping my daughter adjust and keeping mine and my husbands mind at peace that’s she’s okay. Now she’s obsessed with “school” and loves her teachers and always brags about them. Anmolpreet and Ana are amazing and go above and beyond for their class. As well as the rest of the staff. I’ve watched and observed and as a nervous mama they keep my mind at ease! And the constant updates through the app is the best also!Thank you Brightpath!
