Bright Horizons at Naperville

After a tour of the new facility in Naperville on Diehl, and being a Bright Horizons (BH) participant before, this is a new, clean center. There were only about 40 enrolled children with a capacity of up to 200. (They expect to get overflow from the other two BH from 59 and at Lisle.)The parking is in the back and the «outside» area playground is divided into several section by chain linked fence. Each area was quite small. The building (a converted business/​office center) was gutted to include not only classrooms but a large motor skill area (gym like area) for yoga and other activities (esp. for winter months). While it was nice overall, there wasn’t a warm feeling (yet). The entrance coming in was also used for the kids to exit for the «playground kennels». The prices were very high for even the Naperville area — comparable to the highest end centers.

This is a newly built childcare center. I was in the area recently and stopped in for a tour. The Director of the center was very nice, knowledgeable, and answered all of my questions. The center has approximately 15 classrooms targeted towards infants, toddlers, and K-​prep. Every classroom is well laid out and has top notch furnishings, toys, and state of the art learning equipment. The playground is huge and has nice equipment. I’m familiar with Bright Horizon’s other locations and know they offer excellent curriculum. This center is a great addition to the area and is conveniently located. I would definitely recommend any parent considering childcare, check out this awesome center.
