About the Provider

Advertisement
First and foremost we provide the best possible environment for a child. Children learn best when they are engaged and interested, and what better way to do that than to have fun while learning. While at our Academy your child will have plenty of time working on teacher directed activities. However learning at Bright Start Academy is also designed to be informal and flexible so the children are allowed to explore, discover and create. It is also varied in nature so the children discover themselves first as individuals, and then relate to others in their group. Bright Start Academy has experienced professional staff. Our Directors have at least 10 years as Directors. Our nurturing and caring staff receives on-going training throughout the year by attending various workshops related to the field of early childhood education. By being trained properly and having stability in management, the turnover in our staff is very low compared to other schools. This stability and continuity is important to your child’s emotional and educational growth. And of course at Bright Start we pride ourselves on providing unsurpassed value. As you check our tuition rates you will find that we are among the most affordable schools in the St. Louis metro area.

Common questions

The answers people ask us for most often.

How do I contact a provider I found here?

In most cases the provider’s direct number is included in their listing. When it is not, we list the number of the Child Care Licensing Program — you may call that number for more information, or search for the provider online.

Will ChildcareCenter pass a message on to a provider for me?

No. ChildcareCenter only provides information, so enrolment questions, tuition questions and job enquiries need to go to the provider directly using the contact details on their listing. We cannot forward them and we cannot share contact details a provider has not published.

I run a daycare — how do I correct or remove my listing?

Use suggest an update on your listing to correct any detail, or claim the listing to manage it yourself. If you have closed or no longer provide care, contact us and we will update the listing to show that.
