This center is not safe for children. The people that work there obviously are just there to make a…read morepaycheck. They do not have the care and safety of the children as a priority. When I would pick up my child, I was greeted by workers snapping at kids and constantly kids crying. This is new. The center was never like this before. It is under new management, and its changed in such a bad way since then. They are never within ratio and have workers without all their required child care hours. And I say workers because I do not consider them as caretakers or teachers. They do not do the things required to be that. Recently, two teachers with nearly 50 years of combined dedication to this center were fired based on false accusations. They simply wanted to get rid of their most expensive employees, so they can hire people with way less experience for the bare minimum pay. It is so sad to see what has become of this place. If you do take a chance on this place, you better pray you get one of the few good teachers that are left. Loyal families are pulling their kids from this center because they fear their child's safety. Myself included. Beware. ​

Ms Amporn makes me so happy with pictures and communication. They work with him and his motor skills and keep him entertained.

We had to frantically search from room to room as no staff was helping only to find her crying her eyes out and not being helped. She had a super full diaper and had only been feed twice that day for a total of 12 ounces. When I asked why thrust didn't feed her regularly they said I didn't tell them to feed her. I didn't realize you have to explain to a child care faculty that they actually have to feed your child. This was the worst experience and I highly recommend choosing a new daycare before selecting this horrible place.

I even overheard one talkin' nasty about a baby's private parts and makin' slick comments about how "nappy" the Black kids' hair is. That's beyond disrespectful. The whole place just loud and messy -- real chaotic. We ain't never seen the actual director. I think her name Amber or Ember, but she don't ever show her face. Only folks we ever seen was the assistant, Nick, and the assistant director, who always loud and runnin' around in a cape like it's a joke. Wouldn't recommend this center if you serious about where your kids go. Only person who was sweet and consistent was Mrs. Kimberly -- she the only one that acted like she cared.

We have been going to this school for 8 years (multiple kids) and still going. The facility allows the kids to experience multiple playgrounds, gardens, swimming, tennis, dance, theater, basketball, and they can even play in the gym when it's raining. If you are looking for a preschool you should at least tour this one. (also it is important to note you don't have to be jewish and many kids aren't).

The whole building smells like stale feces and they try to hide the smell by putting a wax warmer by the front door but once it's turned off, all you smell is the filth. If your child gets hurt, they will 100% pretend your child didn't get hurt there. If you bring cereal for your child, they use your cereal for other kids who forget their breakfast instead of giving them the school's own food. The director puts on a great performance, but don't let that fake smile fool you. This place is a nightmare!!!!!! Your child will stay sick every day they attend this daycare!!!! So nasty.

Bright Start School and Daycare is one of them. My girls have been going here for the last 4 years and we have had nothing but a positive experience. They love going to daycare every day. They are well taken care of. They are loved on in my absence. These teachers care about our kids and they are treated like family. My girls have learned so much this past year. They come home and proudly pull out all of their learning sheets and art work for us to display. They have done and continue to do such a great job of keeping everything clean and everyone safe throughout the pandemic and have successfully been able to remain open so the parents can continue to work and feel that our children are remaining as safe as possible. I can not recommend this center enough.

She was very rude and mean, when I asked to talk to a manager she state she was the manager then I asked her to let me talk to someone above her and she said there was nobody. Bad way to do business, I did end up signing my son but I will not do it again and for sure I will make sure to let people know to stay away from this place.

I wasn't expecting much since given the area and was pleasantly surprised to see suggested exercises on the white board and lots of the same free weight equipment that I'm used too. This Y could use a face lift...getting rid of the carpet and installing a newer gym floor alone would do wonders as I can live with the equipment they have. I was hoping to discover some classes I could attend however their class schedule varied from the normal since it was the Holiday. I would have loved to get in there on Thanksgiving but they were closed. Knowing my home "Y" just had a large renovation I did not show up here with wild expectations however was bummed that there was no towel service. Whenever I'm in this area I will definitely go back. We don't have kids so I did not pay much attention to the grounds in that regard or other activities but the "Y" has a long standing seal of approval for these sorts of things. The "Y" in general is a great place for families to participate in and can benefit on all levels.
