Bright Minds Center

I cannot say enough about Bright Minds Center to truly convey how amazing they are. My daughter started about 1 month ago and is absolutely thriving. We have already signed up for the fall and cannot wait to see all of the amazing things they teach her. The facilities, employees, and curriculum are all wonderful. We consider ourselves so lucky to be a part of their community.

My child was attending Bright Minds for 2.5 years now (from the age of 2 years old). And I cannot say enough how I am happy about the whole experience. This is THE ONLY school in NYC where I was not worried whether my child is fed, appropriately dressed for outside time, had enough nap and diapered in time. And at the same time they provide excellent studying environment with top-notch teachers and caregivers. Just to be clear: we were admitted to the best American schools in TriBeCa as Washington Market school, Montessori Beach street, etc. But we decided to go with Bright Minds. And there was not a single time I felt sorry about our decision. Absolutely amazing school!

Excellent school with excellent and really involved teachers who put their all into helping kids master language and logical reasoning skills. They have classes, in which kids are asked to sit at a semicircular table to ensure all the kids are engaged, are able to sit and focus on their tasks, which is a challenge for toddlers. The teachers make sure each kid gets the task at hand before moving on to the next one. There is play time in the afternoon allowing kids to socialize and learn through free play as well. Their outside play area is the Imagination playground nearby. Overall, we are very happy with the school and my child's development in it. That said, in response to another review here, this may not be for those parents who prefer an indulgent/permissive parenting style. For myself and my husband, we find the school to be a good balance between what one may call a "serious" learning environment for little kids and play time with classmates which goes well with what we hope is a well balanced, demanding yet responsive parenting/teaching style.

We were privileged to have the opportunity to attend Bright Minds. I appreciate the cultural and academic values my kids picked up from the school. The staff is great, the space is clean. They offer a fun variety of classes with passionate and enthusiastic teachers! One definitely will pick up Russian as the method of immersion surely works! It's a very enriching and stimulating community to be a part of.
