  Lamont Bright Horizons is the only daycare I trust with my two kids. The teachers are so loving yet structured while nurturing the kids’ intellectual, emotional and physical development. Even though I don’t work nearby, I still keep my kids in this daycare. Thanks so much for all you do day in and day out!

  I’ve been taking my son to the center on the days his school is not in session, as it’s one of the backup care providers through my employer. I’m so glad we found it, as it’s simply wonderful! My son is being treated like family here, he loves participating in all the fun and creative activities. The teachers are truly caring and loving, and the director is amazing at running the center and being very involved with the kids, parents, teacher and the daily routine here. I only wish we had found this center earlier so my son would have more time here! Thank you everyone at Lamont-Doherty for making our lives as parents a little easier!

  We’ve had a wonderful experience at the Lamont-Doherty Child Development Center. The Director is amazing, and our son’s teachers are phenomenal. Our son has some scary food allergies, so sending him to daycare has been stressful in the past, but the staff at Lamont are incredibly diligent and well-trained around medical issues. They have our complete trust. Our son also adores being at the center (he sometimes asks to go back to school after we get home at night!), and he’s learning a tremendous amount. Great communication, great learning environment, and great community – highly recommend.

  I have had nothing but a wonderful experience since starting my daughter in the toddler room here. Under the incredible direction of Ms. Lauretta, you will find a truly wonderful staff who care deeply about the children and go out of their way to make them comfortable and happy. Ms. Carol and Ms Jen in the toddler room are exceptional. My daughter is happy every time we arrive. It is very much a family experience at the center, after starting my toddler and seeing how great it is, I was quick to enroll my infant as well. Through the app, you are kept updated on your child's every move. I am so happy to see my babies grow and thrive at this great place!!

  I came across Bright Horizons Lamont when I was looking for backup childcare. Lamont center far exceeds my expectations. Ms. Sonia, Ms. Ellen in the pre-school room and Ms. Lauretta, the director, are among the most caring and warm teachers we have ever met. My 3-year-old son loves coming here. The center gives kids healthy snacks, has plenty of indoor and outdoor activities and sends carefully written daily reports and tons of pictures! Despite that we have other backup childcare options in my area, I am so impressed with Lamont that I've decided to drive my son from White Plains to here whenever we have needs.

  Lamont Doherty Bright Horizons is truly and exceptional place. Both of my children went there and loved it. The teachers were amazing. Our children got so much guidance, love and attention that went above and beyond. We love Lamont and are so happy that it was a formative part of our children’s lives.
