Before & After School Program | 3 - 8 Years | Serving Washington, DC

Extending Their Day For More Learning & Fun

Pre-K children continue their daily project-based education before and after school, reinforcing skills they’ve been working on throughout the day and expanding on their learning. School-aged friends also have a mix of free play, guided projects, and academics.

Free & Structured Time Let Them Unwind

Free & Structured Time Let Them Unwind

Self-directed play is crucial for children’s development, but teacher-led activities invite them to broaden their horizons and think differently. Your child has the best of both worlds in before and after-school care, enjoying free play, crafts, computer time, and more.

Outdoor Play Increases Focus & Listening

After a full day in school, children need to get moving! Plenty of outside time lets your child expend excess energy, boost their gross motor skills, and get ready for more focused learning and activities.

I can honestly say that Bright Start has had a special impact on my son’s education. He has been attending Bright Start for over a year now and his vocabulary has extended so much! I love the staff; they create a community/ family atmosphere. My son is always excited to go to school and talks about his teachers Ms.Alexis and Ms.B all the time at home; which I love them and appreciate them both!

We have truly enjoyed the time my child had in BrightStart! The small setting they have for children has been a great help. My child when he first attended was unable to talk as much now that he has completed the year he is non stop saying words and singing. They take great care of the kids and give them outside time with walks to different areas. Thank you BrightStart for caring and teaching my child.

Bright Start is the best preschool in DC! My daughter is excited to go to school every morning & loves her teachers very much. The environment is cozy and every person who works here is extremely friendly. We love their events. We love their playground and daily reports about how long our daughter slept for, how much she ate from each delicious meal and how many times she went to the bathroom.

So far, Bright Start has been a great school for progressing my son’s skills all around. He started in the summer at 3years old and I changed his school during that time; enrolling him as a PreK student because he loved the teachers and I love the curriculum. Everyone is welcoming and tends to my son’s specific needs. We appreciate you!

Our daughter is thriving at Bright Start. She loves her teachers and is excited to go each morning. They have really thought of everything I could possibly want from a childcare center - from serving healthy, fresh meals to providing diapers, lots of outside play time, music, and fun, engaging lesson plans - all in a warm, family environment. I highly recommend Bright Start to other DC families!

Our 2 year old daughter has been going to Bright Start for 2 months and she absolutely loves it. Her teachers are very loving and attentive and she has made some wonderful friends. She particularly enjoys the Zumbini classes. Bright Start takes great precautions against COVID and does an excellent job of communicating with the parents. Watching our child thrive and seeing how excited she is to go to daycare every morning makes it worth every penny!
