    I took time off work to take my granddaughter for an interview with Cathy V at 10:30 am on a…read moreMonday. She knew my granddaughter was 16 and still scheduled an interview. She claimed she had to look into the minimum age to work there which sounds dumb on her part because how do you not know?!! She never followed up with my granddaughter. I can only imagine how they ignore the kids at the daycare! Get your facts together before you waste anybody else's time!

    This is review is like 2 years over due!!! We love this place and this is the only daycare that we…read morevisited that made us feel comfortable. We went to Kindercare, Chesterbrook and Crème dela Crème. We chose Pathway. My daughter attended Pathway when we was just 2 years and 8 mos, we started with Miss Miera and Miss Maria. At that time, we are just starting potty training. I think it is more of struggling because I cannot seem to find a way to make her use the washroom. Miss Miera and Miss Maria was so helpful and I guess because of peer pressure she seem to just learn it on her own. A couple of months later, she move to Miss Melissa's room with some of her classmates from the previous room. I think the classroom transfer is based on their age and if there is a spot open in the next classroom. They have different activities to keep the kids busy, weather permitting they would play outside and they also have water days during the summer. After lunch, kids napped and they will have afternoon snacks afterwards. They organize field trips, gardening activities and plenty of drawing/writing exercises. Her last teacher is Miss Robbie, she did a great job of preparing my daughter for Kindergarten. She gave us tips of how we can encourage her to hold a pencil and reading stories. When we started here at Pathway, my little girl was shy and doesn't know how to make friends. My daughter learned a lot and when we started kindergarten she didn't struggle at all, this is all because Pathway prepared them. We left because she was starting Kindergarten and we live in a different school district. She is now in 1st grade and still remembers Miss Robbie and some of her classmates at Pathway, she keeps asking if we can come and visit her. If they were close to my house, my daughter would still be enrolled in their after school & Summer programs.

    This center has it all. It has a staff of teachers with 15-17 years of experience. You can't find…read moremany places that have teachers that make early childhood their career. In the past 2 years I have had nothing but positive experiences with my chil'ds teachers. They have been professional and knowledgable about different stages my child has gone through. They communicate well and offer a great program that challenges my child while letting her have fun. The center also has extra curriculuar programs my child participates in, allowing us to have more family time together at the end of the day instead of running here and there. The office staff is approachable and helpful. They both hold Masters degress in Education. The best thing about the center is that you feel comfortable the minute you walk in the door. It's a small, cozy setting that makes you feel like your child would be very safe. Many families get to know eachother and keep all of their children at the center for many years. Everyone is friendly and the children seem very happy and well rounded. I wouldn't dream of taking my child any where else.

    As older parents of an only child, we thoroughly looked at EVERY (and I'm not exaggerating!)…read moredaycare option in the I-88 corridor area. Initially, we signed up with a flashier competitor within the same top-tier standards, but at the last moment before our infant daughter was set to start there, a mothers-instinct kicked in and I switched facilities at the last moment. Two-and-a-half years later, I have no regrets at that last-minute change. My intuition served me right. The smaller, more personalized, and nurturing care of this facility was completely right for us. Our daughter thrived from the careful attention of a long-term, experienced staff (infant room teachers who had over 15 years of experience in THIS center) who treated my child just like their own ... inside and outside of the classroom. Staff worked WITH us in addressing all our concerns educationally and also with help in parenting tips as well. As our child progressed from the infant room to the toddler room, the caring continued with experienced teachers and a vast array of new opportunities including a curricula adaptable to the children's needs yet supported by a stellar national standard which includes whole learning including science, math, reading, creative play, and even basic word-instruction in Spanis. Being in an office building, the facility seems much more homey than some of the instituionalized day-care centers. The playground isn't a concrete space, but set in a tree-shaded park with designated age-appropriate areas for each group of students. My daughter gets to play in the grass, pick leaves and flowers, help in a garden, play in a sandbox, ride trikes, and so much more in a real outdoor setting. it's wonderful. In addition because of Bright Horizons is part of a larger company, the center has support staff that comes in to the center to teach music and even art in a designated work space. The school has smart boards and computers in the rooms and even has an indoor "Movement Matters" room with ballet bars, mirrors, yoga mats, a climbing wall that is used daily to motivate children in various kinds of physical activity. Even the food here is a step up from most other "day-cares." With an emphasis on healthy eating, an wide variety of fruits and veggies are offered, whole grains are standard, and unhealthy filler juices are replaced with water & milk; homecooked meals and snacks are presented in so many ways with ethnic & comfort styles that my daughter has been expanded her eating habits from most schools traditional nuggets, corn nibbles, pizza, applejuice, and tater-tots! I really can't say enough about this school (not just a day-care). My daughter is academically challenged and ahead of her peers in other institutions, she is socially & environmentally adept ... and is a WELL-ADUSTED and HAPPY little girl who has found the balance of play with forward-thinking learning. She is loved at Bright Horizons and she (and we) love it back. Truly a wonderful place.
