Bright Horizons at NoHo

We could not be happier with the care our family as a whole has received from this Bright Horizons! The teachers here truly care for the children in their classrooms, and the support and confidence they have given us as new parents has been invaluable. The daycare directors know every child by name and the kids return that enthusiasm. We recommend this daycare to every family we know.

My 4 year old daughter has been attending this BH location since she was two, in both the daycare and DOE 3-K and Pre-K programs. My 18 month old has been attending since she was 3 months old. We love the school. The teachers at all levels are caring, nurturing, and experienced. They make an effort to get to know all of the students, even outside their classroom, so the school feels like a close knit community. My older daughter was with Ms. Pia, Ms. Hillary and Ms. Katherine, and now Ms. Em and Ms. Kate. All are still with the school and all have been wonderful (we have seen very little turn-over in staff, which is great). My younger one loves Ms. Claire and Ms. Pam who run her current class. Even the teachers for after-school (shout out to Mr. Alfred), "schools out care", and substitute teachers are great and loved by the kids. Many like Mr. Joseph have been with BH for years, so are familiar faces to the students.

Beyond the staff, the school is very well run -- good and quick communication with parents, well established systems for care during school breaks and DOE holidays, etc. Recently, there was an issue with a persistent fire alarm in the building next door that meant the students have to evacuate. Most schools would have just closed had parents pick up their kids. BH managed to move the students to an NYU building for the reminder of the day, and temporarily relocated all of the students to another BH location by the next morning until the issue was resolved. Other issues like this have been resolved in similarly professional ways.

The only drawback of BH is that it is more expensive than some other programs. The cost can be offset if your kid stays for the free 3k and 4k programs -- this is one of the main reasons we moved our daughter here from a less expensive program that didn't have a DOE pre-k.

As first-time parents, sending our daughter to Bright Horizons in NoHo at just five months old was a significant step for us. Our experience has been nothing short of exceptional, thanks to the incredible staff and their unwavering commitment to the children's well-being.

From the moment we walked in, we were warmly welcomed by the center director, Jess. Their professionalism and friendliness immediately put us at ease. Jess, along with Tess and our daughter's teachers Mel, Shyann, and Eileen, have been nothing but kind and accommodating. Their genuine care and warmth towards our daughter have been heartwarming.

We were particularly impressed with the comprehensive protocols the center has in place. From measures addressing outdoor air quality issues (when there's been recent bad air days) to robust building access security, every detail is meticulously managed. These protocols have made us feel secure and confident in our decision to trust Bright Horizons with our daughter's care.

One aspect we particularly valued was the flexibility in pick-up and drop-off times. Being able to drop off and pick up our daughter at any time was incredibly convenient. Additionally, the center provides a room to store strollers, allowing us to leave it there after drop-off. This small but thoughtful convenience made our daily routine much smoother.

The entire team has made this transition smooth and comfortable for us. We are grateful for the welcoming environment and the peace of mind they provide every day. For any parents looking for a trustworthy and caring childcare center, we highly recommend Bright Horizons in NoHo. Thank you, Jess, Tess, Mel, Shyann, and Eileen for your outstanding dedication and care.

We were happy with our experience with BH Noho where our daughter went to 4-K class. The admin team is welcoming, responsive and organized. I always received timely answers to my questions. This was especially important at the beginning, when we were a new family here and had to figure out several things.
All my daughter's teachers, those for the regular hours and for the after care, were amazing. They always had good ideas for reading, art projects, movement activities, dramatic play, which fit nicely together with the theme of the month.
I highly recommend the place!

My 3 year old son loves this Bright Horizons location! Our experience with them has been nothing but positive. The staff is friendly and I can tell they truly care about the children they are taking care of. From the top down. Administrative staff, back up care teachers, his 3K teachers (shout out to Miss Hillary and Miss Em), they're wonderful folks. The way they *speak to* and *look* at my son gives me, as a parent, comfort. This is has always been important to me because we've had issues around this in the past with previous centers. I'm very particular about how adults address Canon. But they've been perfect from the beginning...(Especially when he went through his "don't leave me daddy or I'm going to tantrum" drop-off phase.)

Communication with the parents is excellent as well. They are always available to answer any questions or concerns I may have, and they keep me updated on my child's daily activities.

Overall, I highly recommend Bright Horizons NoHo to any parent looking for a safe and nurturing environment for their child.
