We absolutely love this center, and would rate it 10 stars if possible. Our little one has been…read morethere since she was 6 months old and has absolutely thrived. Their Covid protocols are lock-tight and they consistently send weekly updates with any relevant information for parents, so we have felt super safe with our daughter there. The teachers are wonderful and our now 2-year old has learned so much from their carefully crafted curriculums and has experienced nothing but pure joy, making little friends along the way. They constantly update the "My Bright Day" app throughout the day (not sure how they find the time to do it!) with photos and comments, so you feel fully engaged with your kiddo's whereabouts and what they're up to each day. Nothing but love for this center and its incredible team who now feels like family!

We have had an absolutely wonderful experience with Bright Horizons at Back Bay. Crystal, Ambar,…read moreDelaney, Kera, and Elizabeth are all great infant teachers, very warm and caring. They send photos and updates throughout the day to keep us connected, and our daughter is all smiles when I drop her off. They are also great partners to us, helping us make a plan to support her developmental milestones both at the center and at home. It's been a great place for our family.

Our son started in the toddler class a little over a month ago. So far, we love CCLC. We feel that…read moreour son gets a lot of attention from his teachers - you can tell by their familiarity with his personality quirks and favorite activities. Each of the teachers know my son by name, even the ones in the baby classroom who don't interact with him as often. The facilities are brand new and beautiful. The director picked out every piece of furniture and every toy herself, and it shows - each classroom has an indescribable homey feel. Our son loves the fish tank right in the foyer. The toddler classroom windows are higher up by the street, so you can easily look down and wave to your child after drop-off and on your way in to pick-up. It's very sweet to peek in and see our son. On the way home each day, he and I stop at the window and he waves "bye bye" to his teachers and classmates from the outside. I have also been very pleased by the variety of activities. The teachers take the toddler students to the park, create age-appropriate art projects, and sing songs during circle time. CCLC provides a morning and afternoon snack for the day. The children have an afternoon nap, and the teachers make sure our son has his "lovie" and favorite blanket. Finally, I really appreciate the level of individualized communication from the teachers. We get an information sheet about his day at pick-up. In addition to what you might expect (times of diaper changes, length of nap, etc.), there is always a full paragraph that begins "Today, I....." written from the child's perspective detailing some of the highlights of the day. My spouse and I love reading through these paragraphs in the evening - the teachers clearly pay attention to our son. I love hearing about him stepping in green play-dough, wandering away from the circle during singing time, and playing with the toy cash register. We also receive emails over the weekend describing our son's week (sometimes pictures, too!). One weekend a teacher emailed to check in and see how our son was feeling after he wasn't quite himself on Friday. I very much appreciate how he is treated as an individual and how much his teachers clearly care.

AMAZING teachers & staff who treat children as their own. Such a loving & supportive environment…read morewhere I trust the care of my child for nearly 12 hrs a day, 5 days a week for over 1.5 yrs! (And I am a picky person, so that's saying a lot!) they integrate activities with structured play with just good old "dance parties" for the toddlers to get them laughing and moving. In the infant room the babies get to have sensory play and fun as well. Parents get pics and detailed info daily, throughout the day. In a city with daycares on nearly every corner, CCLC @ School St is the treasure that puts your child first!
