What Parents Say
Brightside Academy receives highly polarized reviews. Most parents praise the staff, teachers, and overall care quality, with children enjoying their experience. However, serious concerns have been raised by other parents regarding safety supervision, physical incidents, bullying, and staff negligence.
I used the McKees Rocks location for my daughter when she was an infant. The best part of the summer was all about her experience. Our seven-year-old enjoyed herself and made new friends. I hate Pittsburgh traffic, but that’s the city life. The summer camp teachers were awesome, and Misty is a great director. We paid privately and received a good discount. She still misses her friends from this summer. We will recommend it.
Ms. LaShawn, Ms. Tameshia and Ms. Markita do a fine job with my wife and I children. They are very happy with them and other teachers as well.
Person working there. That would leave there own baby alone for hours alone in house by itself and was taking from her. Would never trust this employee.
My daughter has been here since 6 weeks old and she’s 1 now. She loves it and I love it. The staff is also amazing.
My daughter went through a lot of bad things in that school racism, bullying and they neglected her they are irresponsible to the point that they let my 3-year-old daughter leave the building alone by herself without supervision, they hit her at school the children came all bruises in her body to the house, l told them and They didn't do anything, they crushed her finger with the door, they left her alone in a room for 3 or 4 minutes, they say, but it was longer, my daughter has been traumatized and very, very affected, she has totally changed since she entered that school together with the children of 3 years and they never did anything it is very unfortunate that this happened, I do not recommend this deycare, the employees and teachers are negligent do not trust leaving your children in that deycare.
