BrightPath Simsbury Child Care Center

"We love BrightPath daycare. Educators are great, very professional and responsible." - Margaryta Terentyeva

BrightPath Simsbury Child Care – a NAEYC-Accredited center since 2010 – is located in St. Johns Place, situated on the corner of Rt. 10 and Rt. 315, making it a convenient location for nearby residents of Simsbury and Granby, as well as those commuting through Simsbury. Part of this state-of-the-art facility was once a church, as evidenced by the beautiful stained glass window in our enormous indoor play area.

As a NAEYC-Accredited center, we meet all the standards of a high-quality facility, ideal for a child’s early development. The center is a spacious, two-story facility with over 15 generously-sized classrooms. Outside, the five large playgrounds provide extensive space for children to enjoy the outdoors while developing their large motor skills.
