Bright Horizons Children'S Centers LLC

I am extremely picky about daycares and BH West Fort Collins beyond exceeds expectations. I don’t like daycares where it’s just toys on the ground that they clearly don’t clean well and the teachers are sitting in a chair looking at their phones. I had that experience at a past daycare in another state for my oldest child and touring many other (cheaper) FoCo daycares I worried about that being the case at a lot of them. But that is FAR from the reality here. I am blown away by the level of care given by the teachers and staff. I love that they have an actual curriculum and I’ve seen so much growth in my 18 month old during her 6 months here so far, especially in her vocabulary and routine. My oldest is a Montessori kid and BH absolutely prepares my younger ones for that future experience. Lastly, they truly sanitize their toys and spaces, I see them bring the cleaned toys in every morning. We’ve barely been sick this Winter! (At aforementioned daycare for my oldest we didn’t make it two consecutive weeks between Nov-Feb without illness.) I couldn’t recommend this location more!! It’s more expensive on paper but their level of care and education (not to mention they provide all meals and wipes) is definitely worth the price.

We have been at Bright Horizons West for about a year and love it! My son started in the ones classroom (1.5-2 years old) and had a lot of separation anxiety so drop-offs and classroom changes were tough. All the teachers and staff are so great and loving, they really helped him work through it. He has really opened up here and loves all his teachers. The admin staff are also all amazing - often stepping in for breaks etc. My kid has learned a lot here and we love the structured curriculum. There is a fun indoor gym for kids they get to go to about once a week during the summer and more often when the weather is poor. We really appreciate the consistency in staff and it seems cleaner than other daycares we’ve tried. During the summer we were barely sick. Winter seems unavoidable with everyone inside all day, but the teachers all do a really great job at removing toys that kids put in their mouths etc.

Our son has been at this daycare since he was just a year old, and now he's almost 4—and we couldn't be happier with the care he's received. The teachers truly adore the children they serve. You can feel the love and attention they pour into every day. They've helped our little guy grow, learn, and feel safe, and for that, we are forever grateful. The office staff are the cherry on top—so kind, helpful, and always welcoming. From top to bottom, this daycare has been such a positive, nurturing environment for our family. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a place where their child will be genuinely cared for and celebrated!

We have two kids at Bright Horizons West and we couldn’t be happier with their experience. The classes are the right amount of structure and play and they have both learned so much in a year. The center feels like a community school while also having more flexibility for our schedules. The facility has an awesome outdoor play area, indoor gym, and stem room. Above all the teachers and staff have all been caring and impactful in our children’s development. Our kids love Ms. Lyndsey and her class has really equipped them to start kindergarten. Thanks BH West!

This is, in my opinion, the best preschool in Fort Collins. The staff treats the children like their own children and it’s truly a family. It’s safe, clean, and fun. The indoor gym is SO much fun. Great outside playground as well. I love every teacher there and my child has only ever been treated with love and respect. Highly recommend. Also, the front office staff is like family. They’re so warm and wonderful.
