Schools near East Granby, CT

“We LOVE the BB team at the East Granby location. Both of my children 5 month old and 3 year old attend. They take care of the children like they are their own! My 3 year old is very high energy and social and he struggled at a local daycare he went to last year. Since starting Preschool at BB, he is thriving and we noticed a positive change in him. Miss Alicia and Miss Marisa and all of the other preschool teachers have so much patience and truly provide a warm and welcoming environment for children to learn and grow. The infant teachers are amazing as well and the facility is SO clean! Miss Blanca and Miss Lexi in Infants are so sweet. Its always so nerve wrecking giving your children to strangers but we already feel like family. We couldn't be happier! TY BB East Granby for all you do every day!”

“KinderCare was an amazing place for my son Kody. He went for a full year. Before going into KinderCare he was very shy and wouldn’t play with any other kids on the playground ever. He hasn’t learned letters and knew just a few numbers. He came out a very outgoing , confident kid ready for kindergarten , knowing all the letters and numbers, spelling his name. The director and teachers truly care about your kids- it’s not just their job, it’s their passion and you can see it 100%. No better place around for your kids to go don’t hesitate to place your kids here for daycare / preschool.”

“Words can’t describe how grateful we are to be a part of the Work And Play family! From their incredible teachers to their play-based curriculum, this school is top tier in early childhood education. Our daughter has loved her experience so far and we cannot wait for our son to start in the future!”

“I really cannot say a negative thing about our experience at Bright Horizons!We’ve been so happy (and still are) with everything from communication, the facility, and of course—how happy our 18 month old is! She is progressing developmentally as well! Someone is always willing to speak with you, in detail, regarding any concerns/questions you have whether it’s over the phone or when you’re there at drop-off/pick-up. We can’t wait for our next child to enroll in the future.”

“Choosing a childcare facility is not an easy feat, but when we found Kindercare, we knew we had found our second family. The staff is kind and knowledgeable. We receive updates throughout the day on the app, and we also are kept well-informed of our child's day at pick-up. The curriculum is play-based and device-free, which was extremely important to us. Kindercare has been a fantastic part of our child's life!”

“I couldn’t have asked for a better preschool for my child. The teachers are amazing, and they have helped her learn so much through play and exploration. They truly make learning magical for the kids.”

“We live down the street and take my 2 year old to the playgrounds sometimes. They seem really nice and everyone we have met there is nice as well. The only question I have about the palygeound is why are the swings so high off the ground? How do the school kids even use them like that? I cannot help but wonder.”

“We love the place, the gym is diverse, and there is a gym for children and also a playroom. They have free projects for Jewish holidays that are always fun to come to”

“It is a bittersweet feeling as our fifth and youngest daughter finishes the K-Prep program at Bright Horizons at Hall Blvd. Our family has had a child enrolled at Bright Horizons since the fall of 2008, when our oldest daughter was 2. Over the past 14 years, Bright Horizons has become like a second home to us, and the staff and other families have truly become like family to us. We feel so fortunate that we chose this child care center, and we will miss it dearly.I always feel so secure knowing that my kids are safe and in such good, capable hands when they aren’t with me. The staff is always ready to make tearful drop offs easier, and provide such comfort when separation is hard - for both kids and parents! The facility is very clean and bright, and communication with the teachers and administration is excellent. My children built such strong, loving relationships with so many staff members. It is truly heartwarming to see.Where Bright Horizons really shines, however, is in the preschool and K-prep programs. It was in these programs, specifically, that we saw each of our daughters really develop socially, become more independent, and gain a love of and curiosity for learning. There is just the right combination of structure and play time such that the kids are challenged, engaged, and happy. My 4 year old beams with pride when she hands in her simple “homework” assignments, and is so excited to tell me about her new “class job”. It is little things like this that gave my children a valuable sense of responsibility and independence. All of our children have graduated from Bright Horizons so prepared for Kindergarten, both socially and academically. My daughters’ kindergarten teachers have oftentimes commented on just how prepared my daughters were when they entered their classrooms. I can easily say that in terms of Kindergarten preparedness, Bright Horizons is second to none.Another great thing about Bright Horizons is how well the staff gets to know each child. My children are all very different, and the staff consistently addressed and catered to each one’s strengths and needs. The K-Prep teacher actually went to a book store and picked out a book for each child as a gift at their graduation. The books were unique and special to each child and showed just how well the teacher knew each child.The staff is kind, compassionate, and understanding. I believe this starts at the top, and the administration team is nothing short of amazing. They continually go out of their way to help families, and we cannot thank them enough.After having five children go through all the programs at Bright Horizons at Hall Blvd, I would recommend it without hesitation. It really has been one of the best decisions we have ever made for our family.”

“My kids are having great experience in this preschool. Play based and nature oriented, they outside everyday, spacious playground w mud kitchen. My daughter was so proud when she got through monkey bars. Caring teachers in all rooms, we went from 2y old through gift of time(5y old) programs.You won’t regret your choice”

“I went here between roughly 2003 - 2007 in the summer camp and after-school program, and everyone I know seems to think I turned out quite well, haha. I have nothing but the fondest feelings of nostalgia and appreciation whenever I drive past this place daily. I don't know if they're still working here, but the staff members I remember most are Eric, Sue, David, and Kim. All very good people and I have reason to believe the influence of this place helped round my character out and help me develop in ways my family could only have dreamt of.If they're anywhere near as good today as they were back then, you have this former enrolled child's stamp of approval! :)”

“Went there today with my 4 girls, such a calm environment full of a lot of educational stuff. They have so many little animals, and they show you how they are fed certain times of the day, which is pretty cool to see and learn about! All I can say is it could use a bit more things to do, other than that it was very enjoyable”

“I love shopping here. The staff is helpful, smart and courteous. I found many different hats and turbans in beautiful colors. I bought a jade green turban with jewels (not real) on the front. The prices are super”

“School has gone through some growing pains since moving into the building last year but I like the way they've turned some things around. This has still been the best decision we've made for our son. Teachers are kind, caring, and professional. All of the staff go above and beyond to get to know the kids and to provide them with a safe and engaging place to learn and grow.”
