My son started going here when he was 4 months old after a bad experience with another daycare hes now 7 month and hes learned so much with his teacher Ms Angie she's a great teacher who has taken care of my son. I couldn't have asked for a better daycare then this one the director Ms Patsy is an amazing woman who runs this daycare with the most love I have ever seen. She makes sure the kids are well of taken care of having them do so many activities this daycare is like a family all teachers treat the kids with greatest care and I know my son is in great hands I highly recommend this daycare if your looking for a daycare that will treat your kids with love and dedication.

My son has been going here for about a year and I love this school for him! Ms. Margaret is amazing! We love her and my son is always happy to see her! Since going to this school my son has made great improvements with his speech and has learned a lot and they were great when we worked together to get him potty trained when we first enrolled him. We also love Ms. Danielle she has been really helpful with my son and making sure he has the tools he needs to be great. She is great at keeping me informed and I love hearing about his day and what they accomplished at school. I’m so happy we found this school and I highly recommend it! My son is loved and cared for and gets smarter every day because of the dedication the staff has which is amazing. Thank you to the teachers!

I really love this school, my son has learned so much. Mrs. Margaret is so patient and loves to teach. I really appreciate her, she has helped my son not only learn his fundamentals, but also many life lessons on behavior, emotions, and being respectful. I couldn’t ask for a better teacher for my child! I have no complaints about this school, my son is excited to go to school everyday!

By far the best daycare my son has been to. In my opinion knowing my son is being loved at school when I cannot be there is a huge deal. When my son started he was 2yrs old in Mrs. Lydias class and she has been amazing with my son and you can tell their connection is something you can only pray for when having to leave your kid with someone for 8 hours a day. Now he is three and I was nervous for him to get a new teacher, but Mrs. Margaret and Mrs. C have kept the standards high in loving and teaching my son fundamentals. They all give great advice if I am struggling with anything at home/ needing advice with tantrums or anything! What's truly amazing is how fast Mrs. Margaret and his other teachers potty trained not just my son but the whole classroom! They told me their goal and within a week my son was out of diapers! They love and work very hard with our kids and that is truly hard to find. The owner Mrs. Patsy is just amazing and it shows when she's had staff there for ten plus years that continue to show up with smiles and truly love their jobs.

This is the absolute best daycare my kids have been in (and we’ve been in many). The teachers are WONDERFUL! They truly care about their kids, they know how to control their classrooms, and they are all VERY knowledgeable with have tons of experience. My 3 year old is high energy and Ms Margret is absolutely fabulous with him. She potty trained him in a week! Ms C is her aid and she is SUCH a pleasure with drop off in the mornings. My 2 year old daughter is very hard to warm up to people and she RUNS to Ms Lydia in the morning. I could go on and on about this daycare. I am SO happy I found this place for my kids. All of the teachers are just amazing. The director and owner are equally great and plan so many fun events for the kids. My kids are in such great hands here. I HIGHLY recommend Bright Beginnings.
