Bright & Early Niantic, CT

"This daycare is amazing. Everyone is so nice and I feel they actually care for my son. After being on the waitlist for many months with bright and early, it was totally worth the wait!"

"This daycare is special. My son started there in January - he’s 11 months old. We were on the waitlist for about 11 months and I’m glad we waited. Every single teacher provides feedback to me, shares pictures throughout the day, and really cares about our son. We had trouble with him eating solids (before he started at bright and early). Within a month, he was doing so much better. On a warm day last week, the teachers took him to play outside, and took him on a buggy ride (safely). They do activities with the children, arts and crafts, themed events, etc. Big shout out to Lexi and Maritza for loving our boy Theo and taking such good care of him. Directors are also awesome. Great communication."

"My wife and I opted to transfer our 2 daughters from another local center to Bright & Early. Ms. Kara and her staff ensured the transition was seamless and checked in with my wife and I to provide feedback and support during the transition. The center itself is clean, well maintained and well managed. It feels like a learning focused environment and all the staff goes out of their way to ensure parents are informed and children are well attended to. I would recommend Bright & Early to anyone looking for quality care and education for their children."

"I have used this center for the last 7+ years. My son is a graduate, now in 3rd grade, and my 3 year old daughter is currently enrolled. The staff is absolutely amazing. I have formed incredible trusted bonds with many of the teachers as well as the Director and Assistant Director Kara and Kelly. They say raising a child takes a village, B&E is my village. From infant to pre-school the teachers have all helped me navigate the many milestones of my children's growth and development. They know my children just as well as I do, and treat them as such."

"My daughter joined B&E two months ago and absolutely LOVES it! From the moment you walk in you know the children are well taken care of, safe, and enriched. The staff is wonderful- they are respectful, kind, hard-working, and consistent! They genuinely seem like they love what they are doing and I can always count on positive, caring interactions with them. I have observed other programs where staff turnover is so high, and attendance so poor, that there are always different caregivers working with the children. That is not the case here!! I also love the curriculum and my daughter is thriving!! I highly recommend this center if you’re looking for childcare and early education!"
