What California does not publish here

The state publishes when licensing staff visited, not what they found. We do not hold California’s inspection findings, so nothing on this page tells you whether a visit resulted in a citation. A visit count is a measure of licensing activity, and a facility visited more often is not for that reason a worse one. Read the findings in California’s own facility search.

  • We just had our 2nd daughter’s Pre K graduation and it felt surreal how in a few months our family will no longer have a child there after starting 2019. We started with our oldest at 23 months old and she went to Kindergarten very well prepared academically and emotionally. She is currently thriving in a dual immersion elementary school reading to me like a librarian in Spanish. I love that she learned the tools to read at Bright Horizons but the greatest gift is her ability to make friends and enjoy school with wonderment. That will help her in so many ways. My 2nd child is very different from her big sister and I wouldn’t have it any other way. But it was great to see how the teachers in each class and the director knew how to approach them uniquely so they can feel their happiest while learning there. Kelly Vanta the director, Christi and Karla in admin and all of their amazing teachers feel like family to me. I couldn’t recommend them more!

  • Bright Horizons is an actual GEM of a place! Our daughter started three weeks ago and we continue to be impressed daily. The center director is extremely involved and all the staff is incredible. Our daughter had a bit of an adjustment period and they couldn’t have been more accommodating and provided suggestions to make her more comfortable.

  • Our son has attended Bright Horizons at San Clemente for the past 1.5yrs. His teachers have been excellent. They are caring, patient and positive. We are so glad our son is growing and learning at this school. There is also a great sense of community as the school sets up family events throughout the year.

  • I had another preschool 10min walk from my house, but we chose Bright Horizon for the following reasons: 1. Staff is professional, loving and friendly. My two daughters loves their teacher. 2. Healthy meals are provided so that you save ‘time’ from preparing meals. (And organic!) 3. Daily reports- I love it when they send ‘photos’ of your child learning and interacting with others. (These photos are precious). 4. Awesome playground with plenty of activities, integrated with their landscape and nature. 5. Classrooms are clean, fun, filled with books, toys for leaning, and kids can engage in arts & crafts. 6. The quality of child development and learning prepares your child for k-12, both mentally and socially.

  • Bright Horizons at San Clemente has provided my entire family with a truly exceptional experience over the 7 months our daughter has been enrolled. The center is beautiful. The director and entire staff work very hard and care very much about everything they do. Our daughter absolutely loves her class, and I have nothing but praise for how well the administration of the school is performed. We’re very happy and grateful to be here.

    Erika SartainJun 14, 2023
  • Bright Horizons San Clemente is a wonderful and special school. Both my 2 and 4 year olds have had an amazing year surrounded by a group of top quality teachers and awesome leadership. They have both learned so much both academically and socially/emotionally and they love going to school each day. So thankful to have found this sweet school, we just couldn’t feel better about where our kids spend so much of their time!

California records 2 inspection visits to BRIGHT HORIZONS SAN CLEMENTE, the most recent on September 23, 2025 and the earliest on record October 18, 2023.

Has California visited BRIGHT HORIZONS SAN CLEMENTE in response to a complaint?
