It felt like our son was always safe and cared for. The administration were essential in helping us get early intervention for our son. It was especially wonderful having Jewish celebrations for our family and very affirming for our household. Wholeheartedly recommend Beth Shalom ELC.

Beth Shalom ELC is a loving, nurturing, play-based learning center for infants through Pre-K. Both…read moreof my children graduated from this center after starting at 11 weeks old, and got the very best start in life. They were beyond prepared for Kindergarten, knowing how to read basic sight words, write and do basic-age appropriate math. The center has lovely science, music, and art specialists that provide enriching experiences to complement lessons provided by the classroom teachers. The large gym full of bikes, scooters, balls, etc. and outdoor playgrounds are perfect for developing and enhancing gross-motor skills. The educators and directors truly care about my child's well-being and the community is warm and welcoming. This is really the place to be.

I can't speak to how Bright Light Academy was pre-covid (I see reviews from 2018 here) but I can…read morespeak to how I feel now. Our children LOVE Bright Light. It's not a "chain" of daycares, so it feels very homey. My oldest child always has funny stories about their classmates and teachers, and my youngest is always singing excited to play with friends in the morning. Whatever changes BLA has made over the past 5 years, it's working for us. I highly recommend Bright Light Academy to anyone seeking childcare in the area. We plan on keeping our children at Bright Light through Pre-K!

Both of our boys, who are a year apart, have been going to Bright Light Academy for the past 7…read moremonths. Within about a week of being at Bright Light, and after I had been a stay at home mom for many years and they had never left my side, they were waving goodbye and walking into class by themselves. The staff are compassionate, friendly and professional and tremendously eased their initial separation anxiety. My youngest does both speech and occupational therapy. Both therapists worked at other daycares and told me they had started recommending Bright Light to their friends who are expecting and to parents looking for daycares. Not only does the staff welcome the therapists into their classes, but they keep me up to speed on his therapy sessions' progress and they carry out what the therapists instruct him to do. The director abides by the rules and takes them seriously. While this may be misundertood by some, I would rather leave my children in the care of a professional who follows the rules and abides by the law and who I can trust to leave my children with. Not only that, but she only hires the best staff to work alongside her. Also, at a time of political and religious conflict, and as a family with very different backgrounds in those aspects, she has made us feel welcome, we were treated with a lot of compassion and respect, and she has taken the time to stop and ask me about our culture and beliefs and has been very respectful to them, which you would not see happening at your average daycare! Thank you to everyone at BLA who participated in shaping the lives of our sons emotionally, socially and intellectually and have been a second home to our boys.

After lots and lots of research and so many phone calls, we chose Shady Lane School. The staff at Shady Lane are all incredibly friendly and welcoming. Drop off and pick up usually take us longer than I expect because my son wants to go around and visit different teachers and say hi to everyone. Everyone learned his name quickly and greets him warmly even when he's being grumpy. Whenever I have to talk to the administrative team, my son is thrilled to play at the large train table by the front desk. His teachers are so dedicated, and I think that is such a big part of why this school is special. Our family is big and complicated, but my son's teachers have gone out their way to learn names and faces. They offer positive encouragement and praise as well as boundaries and redirection. My son used to argue with me about going to school at his last learning center/childcare provider, but now he's always eager to get up and go. I am so thankful that we found Shady Lane, and I will certainly keep them in mind if/when we have another child.
