Bright Horizons at Tufts Medical Center

Our kids have been going to Bright Horizons at Tufts since 2018. The teachers are wonderful! Communication, especially over the last year, is always excellent. It is so cool to hear about all the things our preschooler is learning (anatomy, planets, musicians, artists...). Our youngest is so well cared for in the infant room with lots of snuggles and books. We love watching her smiles on the app during work!

My experience at Bright Horizons is really one of the best! My baby girl finally is on a sleeping schedule, napping 2-3 hours a day and no more waking up in the middle of the nights, she is learning new and different things and socializing with other toddlers. Also, I love the app, where you can see during the day what she eats and what she does , with pics and videos too! Totally recommend it!!

Update in 2024: We now have two children enrolled at Bright Horizons at TMC (infants and pre-school) and continue to be thrilled with the care they both receive and the hours/flexibility/assistance in raising our kids provided by the staff here. They have been so patient with our son as he navigates potty training, and continue to promote his learning at an age appropriate level. Our daughter has been in infants since 3mo (she is now 9 months) and she is so comfortable there. She's always happy to see her teachers and is meeting milestones and then some. Original Post: We are so thrilled with the care and experience that our son is receiving at this center. My husband and I both have challenging schedules so he uses the majority of the offered hours - he is always so happy to be there and loves his teachers. They also take public health/COVID very seriously, which we really appreciate. Highly recommend!

We entrust our toddler son with the Bright Horizons team at Tufts Medical Center three days a week - and are thrilled with the care, education, and affection he receives there! We've been impressed by the level of thoughtfulness that goes into the various activities and love getting photos and updates throughout the day. The team has been so sensitive to his needs and he now literally runs into the center every morning, excited about the day ahead!

I'll start out my review with saying that my daughter hasn't started daycare here yet. However, I felt compelled to write a review after touring this center and communicating with the center's director Amy over the past few months. We looked at Bright Horizons because we had a number of friends with children at different facilities that all raved about it. So it was on our list when we started looking into daycares when I was pregnant with our first child. We toured the Tufts Medical Center location because it was close to where we lived and worked. The staff here were wonderful in setting up our tour, showing us around, and communicating about all the different aspects since we definitely had A LOT of questions. (I was amazed at how many other daycares that we researched were awful at communication. I would email and leave voicemails to get information only to have nobody respond to me. It definitely didn't give me a great feeling about leaving my child there.) I just got a great feeling about this center from everything we saw and our experiences in working with them over the past few months to figure everything out. What I liked about this center: Great communication with staff whether it was over phone/email, super clean and bright, loved the programming they follow, great location downtown by the T, open door policy (you can drop in at any time to visit your little one which is great if you're breastfeeding or just want to say hi), and extra things to make a busy working parent's life easier like stroller/car seat storage, loading zone, etc.
