Bright Eyes Community Child Care Center

Our son has been at Bright Eyes through the waddler and toddler classrooms, and we have nothing but amazing things to say. Reagan and Jen are well-organized and communicative, they interact in classrooms with the kids and teachers daily, and are very aware and focused on each kid’s happiness and development. All of the teachers in our son’s classrooms have been fantastic, and their levels of engagement, patience, and compassion for the kids in their classes are always evident. We love the combination of free/unstructured play, story-time, music, early learnings of colors/numbers/seasons/ etc

Our son has attended Bright Eyes since he was 4 months old—since that time, we’ve seen him advance from the infant to the waddler to the toddler program, and we couldn’t be happier with our experience there. Reagan cares deeply for the students and for her staff, and this is apparent in every way, from her management style to the way she interacts with the kids—it’s common to see her down on the floor, reading to a child snuggled on her lap. On the few occasions I have expressed a concern, her response has been above and beyond what I could have asked for; she is highly observant of all

My kids started during the pandemic and Bright Eyes has been great during the adjustment from sending pictures, answering questions, and their daily report. The staff is friendly and have native Spanish speakers which was a plus for my family.

Our daughter has attended Bright Eyes since she was 4 months old and LOVES it! Her main teachers she's had (Courtney, Claudia, and Shauna) are incredible and truly care about her and all the other kiddos. I've always had such positive experiences with Jen and the director, Reagan. They are also doing a great job keeping things safe and healthy during Covid. It's the best feeling knowing that when I drop off my daughter that not only will she be safe, but that she'll have so much fun with the other kids and her teachers. I highly recommend Bright Eyes!

Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Reliability, Responsiveness, Value
Our daughter has been attending Bright Eyes for 9 months. I have always been able to rely on the staff of Bright Eyes to communicate with me and give my daughter the care she needs every day. I'm so grateful to have them as a part of my daughters life and I can tell through her happiness that she's in exactly the right place.

My son been there since he was 6 wks old and is now 2 years old and the staff is so awesome and patient my son can be a hand full and they still deal with his little stubborn behavior and they are good about notifying me when my son has a slight temperature. The owner there is very professional and is hands on with the kids there as well most centers I've been in aren't. If your looking for a nice and clean and friendly environment i highly recommend . They start as early as 6 wks old.

My toddler has attended Bright Eyes for about a year, and we truly couldn't ask for a better home away from home for him. We found because it was the only place we could find in Charlottesville with the flexible part-time option we needed, and now we recommend it to everyone we meet. The teachers are generous, empathetic, kind, and fun, and all of them are deeply invested in the children they care for. The class sizes are small, which means lots of personal attention, but kids are still left to do a lot of exploring and learning on their own terms. The whole program focuses primarily on emotional

Caring, qualified and friendly staff who go above and beyond to take exceptional care of your children.
