My daughter has attended 48th & Brown since she was 8 months she's 2 now. I am satisfied with the service they provide. We really enjoy the events that Mrs. K & Ms. Angel have. I would recommend anyone to take their child to 48th & Brown.

My daughter attended this bright side on 48th and brown since she was 6 months. She’s now 4 and this is her last year 😔 I wish she can stay till 12th grade the one person that has a great impact on my child is ms.kay. She has been there for my daughter through everything potty training, speech, counting, learning her name and more. I love all the staff but miss Kay stands out to me and my family. I highly recommend this center to anyone that’s willing to allow their child/children to grow

My son loves his school and my Child teachers are amazing. They communicate very well and they always work with my work schedule which is greatly appreciated because most places won’t. They have great activities for the children very much involved in your children development and social growth which is amazing.
