What our families think about BrightPath Matheson West

"I have had nothing but a great experience with this daycare centre over the past 8 years. Both of my kids (5 years apart) went to BrightPath Matheson from ages 1 to 4 years old. The staff are extremely loving and nurturing and my kids loved going here and would rarely cry at drop off. They were given fresh homemade meals with menu options from around the globe. They loved the wide variety of toys, activities, and learning catered to all skill levels. The centre was very clean and organized with a calendar of event and learning topics each week. I would highly recommend this daycare centre to any parent!"

"Both of my boys were enrolled at this centre from 1 to 4 years old. The staff are very friendly and welcoming, and my boys loved going here. They were given fresh homemade meals, and loved the wide variety of toys, activities, and learning. The centre was very organized with a calendar for fun days, and new learning topics each week. Whenever I had any questions or concerns, the daycare director would always get back to me right away. My youngest is in JK now, but is still asking to go back to his daycare :)"
