The Academy at Bright Horizons 2232 Encinitas Boulevard, Encinitas, CA 92024

"The Academy has been the dream school we have been looking for. Nicole, the director is kind, understanding and very inclusive. She truly cares about all the children in her school. Her staff is also wonderful, every teacher at the Academy is welcoming and you can tell all the teachers love what they do. Our experience in the past few months has been a very positive one. Our daughter has shown so much progress in the short time she's been there and she is excited to go to school every morning. Her favorite class is Art but she also enjoys gardening and the music class at the Academy. We highly recommend this school if you want your child to grow and learn in a loving, safe and fun environment. Worth every penny!"

"5 out of 5 stars. We've been at The Academy since 2019 and are so happy we chose this high quality daycare and preschool. Every person on their administrative and teaching staff has a true passion for early childhood education. They're professional, credentialed, truly love all the children in their care, and always look like they're having so much fun. The classrooms and outdoor play areas are well maintained. Their art studio is such a gem. They offer additional enrichment like music, Spanish language class, and a science lab. Through the years, The Academy has become extended family to us."

My child's love for Bright Horizons is heartwarming. The environment created by the team is not only nurturing but also engaging, fostering a genuine love for learning. The trust I place in the directors and the entire staff is unparalleled (Thank you Ms. Ruth for being amazing!). Their commitment to the well-being and development of each child is truly commendable. Observing my child's experiences at Bright Horizons, I can confidently say that they are exposed to great learning opportunities. The curriculum is thoughtfully designed, providing a balance of education and play. The diverse activities contribute to their holistic development, and I appreciate the creativity and effort put into their learning journey.

With two boys at the school (ages 20 months and 4 1/2 years old), we have been so impressed with the teachers' and directors' dedication to our boys' development. They are patient, caring, and knowledgeable, and provide an excellent learning environment for our boys. We couldn't be happier with The Academy at Bright Horizons! Thank you!"

"The Academy at Bright Horizons is a high quality preschool. During my undergraduate career, I volunteered here and fell in love with it. The entire staff is so lovely and inviting and they truly care about each and every one of their students (and students that aren't even in their own class). They have the most wonderful Art teacher that instills the importance of creativity and expression with the activities and self exploration that take place in her room. For any parents looking for a quality preschool to start their children's academic career off strong I highly recommend The Academy at Bright Horizons."
