I’ve been sending my daughter to Bright Path for the past year and I can’t say enough positive things about our experience. Both the infant and toddler programs have exceeded our expectations. From the moment we first stepped through the doors, the daycare felt incredibly welcoming. The warm atmosphere, combined with the friendly smiles of the staff, immediately put us at ease. The open-door policy is a standout feature: knowing I can drop by anytime and see my daughter happily engaged in activities gives me peace of mind. In fact the facility is designed with large windows that let in natural light and provide a clear view into the classrooms. I love being able to peek in and see my daughter exploring, playing, and interacting with her peers.
The director’s approachable nature makes it easy to discuss any concerns or questions. She is always open to conversations and always organize events that bring families together.
The teachers are not only dedicated but also create a sense of community that makes everyone feel like family.
Communication has always been excellent and we like how we receive regular updates about daily activities and milestones, along with photos that capture special moments through the school app.
I highly recommend this daycare!

The best daycare I could ever send my kids too! The teachers are so caring and really treat my kids like family! Libby is amazing too! She’s by far one of the most sweetest thoughtful directors I’ve ever met. They’re like a big family here at the center! Highly would recommend sending your kids here ❤️

We visited schools all over the region for the best Pre-K program for our daughter, and BrightPath in Simsbury definitely has it! When we met Ms Nayomi & Ms Eve we knew immediately that we had not only found the premier program, but also the most caring, fun and passionate teachers!
We have now been with the BrightPath family for months and continue to be so impressed with not only our daughter’s class, but the entire school and awesome staff! A truly wonderful and caring community from top to bottom!

My two daughters have attended BrightPath Simsbury for almost 2 years, and I could not be more pleased with this school. Our experience has been only positive. We find the staff and administration to be very personable, friendly, and engaging.

BrightPath is a fantastic daycare and preschool! The educators don't just take care of the children, but are truly invested in their happiness and wellbeing. Communication with the parents is great, and both the teachers and administrators work as a team with parents through the bumps of early childhood (potty training, illnesses, etc.). Ms. Nayomi's pre-school program in particular is excellent - the kids love their day and I think she will have them reading before they even start Kindergarten!

I have had all three of my children here since it was educational Playcare and now bright path. Two of my three kids are special needs requiring different abilities and pose challenges in unique ways.

The staff there is really great. They work well with the kids and all my kids love it there. My oldest who is now school age misses it and always wants to see the chickens and say hello to staff he has grown very good relationships with over the years with.

My youngest is non verbal and just thrives with their attention and approach. Over these years I’ve grown very fond of the director Libby who I do hope to hold onto in life once my kids no longer attend there because they grow up.

respect her immensely and she’s just salt of the earth a good human. We have shared our love of chickens and shared our wins and sad moments too. I couldn’t ask for better people to surround my children.

They say it takes a village and I discovered this little gem dropping off another child I was caring for and thought man this place is nice I gotta get my kids in here.

I’m not into dismantling other daycares of what I find they could have done better because nothing is perfect in this world, but this place is close for me and a perfect fit for our family.

I highly recommend anyone considering putting their kids here. It’s hard enough to let them out of our sight never mind finding people you can trust with them.

I don’t give this recommendation or compliment lightly, but I do give it fully to my ability.

Libby and her team of caregivers has truly felt like an extension of our family for the past 4 years. From navigating through the pandemic, to always looking out for safety and wellness to the highest regard, I always feel peace and comfort dropping off my children because I know they are being nurtured and given the highest levels of care, on top of learning so much so fast! I am always wow’ed at how much my children learn here every day. To say the staff feels like family is not an exaggeration. The same staff has been here for so long which is a testament to the culture of caring and leadership. You know you have a good place, when there will be tears when it’s time to send my kids to kindergarten because of how much this place has felt like a home. Forever grateful for the my children growing up and thriving here.

We joined BrightPath about a year ago for our two kids and have experienced toddler, preschool and infant rooms. As parents we can be overly concerned but they never make you feel like you’re being a pain when you request something for your child. Libby and Suham have been accommodating from the very start and resolved every issue we’ve addressed, and they do so with a high sense of urgency. The facility is always kept clean, and much of the staff has been there long term. Super happy with our overall experience!
