We are grateful to the thousands of families who have trusted us to support them and their loved ones. We celebrate each child’s achievements and highlight some of their stories here.
Brighton Center would love to share your story with our community. We want to hear how you heard about Brighton, about the services you’ve received, and how Brighton has been able to help.
“My two boys are now attending Brighton. We tried enrolling my 2-year-old at another daycare, and he hated it. He would cry as soon as he saw the school, and he was always crying when I picked him up. Needless to say, we took him out in less than a week and looked for another daycare for him and my infant. That’s when we found Brighton. It’s night and day at Brighton! We are on our second week, and he’s already excited to go to school each morning.”
– Maricela, Brighton Parent
“Brighton Center has dramatically changed my son’s life in the most positive way. He is autistic, and his past school experiences were always very negative; ultimately, he hated school. As a licensed teacher myself, this was very hard for me. I wanted him to have a positive and fun learning environment. He was never truly accepted or loved for who he is until he came to Brighton. The moment I dropped him off, I KNEW in my heart, this was his place. He now asks me every single morning if he can go to school, and my heart cannot be happier.”
– Amanda H., Brighton Parent
“Brighton was our first childcare experience, and honestly, it has set the bar so high for any other childcare for us. The teachers and staff are so caring and communicative. We sadly had to move to a different state, but my hardest goodbye was definitely Brighton. Our son was in the transition classroom and had the absolute best teachers. My son would leave my arms to go to Ms. Raeny. He absolutely loved it at Brighton. We miss it so much already!”
– Adara E., Brighton Parent
“Our son currently attends the Monte Vista Brighton Campus. He has been attending Brighton since January of 2019, and I could not be happier with this facility. I uprooted from Michigan, and this was the very first place I walked into and felt like my son was going to be well taken care of. Since my son started, he has blossomed more than I ever imagined, and I have to thank everyone who is part of the Monte Vista location, as they have all played a huge part in his growth. Our son has become one of the most caring, loving, compassionate, kindhearted little boys, and I truly believe that’s because of the amount of love he is shown at Brighton.”

“My son has attended the Najim campus starting at 6 months, and he is now 18 months old. For the past year, he has received wonderful care at Brighton Center, and I am so happy that we chose this school. The ladies at Brighton have gone above and beyond helping my wife and me feel comfortable each and every day, and I know they truly love my son. He is always full of smiles and loves seeing his “Ms. Julie” and “Ms. Jena” every morning. My son has learned several signs to communicate his needs (he can sign for “more, all done, please, and blow kisses), all of which he learned at school. We love the inclusive atmosphere at Brighton and believe that our son is loved and appreciated for who he is each day.”
– John D., Brighton Parent
“Our daughter attends the Monte Vista Brighton campus, and she absolutely thrives there. The classrooms are bright and cheerful and filled with so many toys, games, and interactive play items, along with being clean! The staff always has a smile on their face, and you can tell that what they do is not just a job. These people are making a difference in these kids’ lives. Our daughter has attended Monte Vista since she was three and will graduate this May. They have prepared her so well for Kinder and beyond. We will forever be grateful. If you are in need of a wonderful school for your little one – DEFINITELY give Brighton Monte Vista a try!”
– Mary R., Brighton Parent
“The BEST daycare in San Antonio. My 2-year-old will run into his teacher’s loving arms every morning. Not only is the facility beautiful, but the classrooms are filled with educational toys and curious play nooks. I love getting pictures of him playing with his friends all day. Each morning, I drop off my son, and I know he’s going to have a day filled with fun and love. Grateful to have found this place for my son to learn & grow.”
– Marisol B., Brighton Parent
“Being connected with Brighton has been such a blessing for our family! We previously were receiving PT services through another company, but it was very difficult to schedule sessions around my work schedule, and we had to rely on a lot of help from our families to make the appointments work. After switching care to Brighton, appointments were able to be done at my son’s daycare, allowing his teachers to be involved in the sessions and learning strategies to help him, and also allowing my husband and me to continue working full time! Most significantly, though, is how Brighton has prioritized the needs of our whole family. They have connected us to resources, helped us advocate for his care, and taken the burden of coordination off my shoulders so I can focus on being a mom. To have Brighton as a partner in our child’s care has been invaluable.”

“I’m a special education teacher, and I highly recommend them. They explained things to me in terms I understood, and my son enjoyed playing with them! When you use Brighton, you’re not using ECI services, but you feel like you are having close friends help you be honest. Highly recommend them. 5 stars is not enough!! Definitely going to use them again in the future.”
– Hannah E., Special Education Teacher & Brighton Parent
“Words cannot express my love for Brighton. They were able to give my son the care he needed. They were also able to transition him into the school district. He has developed at an exceptional rate. Not only that, but Alix M. went above and beyond for our family. Thank You, Brighton!”
– Karisa T., Brighton Parent
“Both my kids went here over a seven-year period, from infants through preschoolers, and it was the best experience. The teachers were attentive and caring, and the facility was always clean and welcoming. I always knew my kids were safe and having fun; it was everything I wanted for my children and more. I’m so glad I found them!”
– Hayley G., Brighton Parent
“Brighton has been a part of our lives for 5+ years, and we have loved having our kids here. The teachers are always meeting our kids’ needs and helping them enjoy learning. I believe our kids are smarter and socially and emotionally thriving because of the education and environment Brighton provides. You won’t find a better place with teachers who truly love your child like their own. We appreciate the open communication the staff provides. As well as providing opportunities for parents to be involved.”
– Amanda C., Brighton Parent
