Our Curriculum
Our curriculum meets children where they are developmentally, with Signature Practices that build confidence and excitement about learning at every age and stage.
The World At Their Fingertips®
Our own World at Their Fingertips® curriculum is based on the research of the most renowned education experts. Designed by our education team, it’s created to support these important early years, to inspire children to be bold explorers today and joyful, confident learners for life.
Infant Curriculum
Babies enjoy classrooms made for exploring with teachers who support both today’s big milestones and tomorrow’s leaps toward the future.
The Toddler/Twos Curriculum
Toddlers are curious about everything and becoming increasingly independent. Our teachers embrace that as they support the growth of important skills they need for the future.
The Preschool/Kindergarten Prep Curriculum
With school on the horizon, preschoolers and pre-kindergarteners are inspired to think critically, experiment, explore new ideas and build on the STEM, language, art and social skills they’ll need to succeed.
The Teacher’s Role
“Early childhood classrooms are special places; within them discoveries abound, imaginations soar, and anything is possible.”

Classrooms that Inspire Learning
At Bright Horizons we believe that environment is the key to creating a joyful place for childhood; and we put a great deal of thought and care into creating those joyful places. In keeping with Reggio Emilia and Montessori philosophies, our designs consider not only what children need in a space, but how they will use it. We know our centers will form an integral part of a child’s earliest learning; and with that in mind, we carefully curate high-quality materials for every center to create beautiful environments with rich, open-ended experiences that nurture development and inspire learning.
Preparing Children for School
Research shows that today, more than ever, children need a mix of diverse skills. At Bright Horizons, we ensure children gain the social-emotional, critical-thinking, and academic competencies to thrive. Read what parents and teachers have to say about our graduates’ success.
