The Bright Horizons Difference

For over 35 years, everything we’ve done, comes back to one thing — your child becoming their happiest and most confident self. Our science-informed learning framework, Discovery Driven Learning®, focuses on your child’s individual strengths. And our highly trained teachers meet your child where they are, nurture their full potential, and partner with you in their development and future success.
