Welcome to Bright Horizons at Carlsbad

A great place to learn, discover and grow!

Welcome to a place of microscopes and mess, kaleidoscopes and computers, books and blocks; a warm soft place of beauty that has the tone and texture of childhood; a place filled with laps, smiles and hugs, and an abundance of good conversation. Bright Horizons at Carlsbad is the right place for kids. We opened our doors to serve children and families in 1993. In each classroom, from infant to Kindergarten, our highly skilled teachers provide the environment and experiences from which children learn and grow. At Bright Horizons Family Solutions, we recognize how important new beginnings are in each child's development and to each family. Our mission is to provide a caring and nurturing environment where your child can learn and develop. We offer full-time, part-time and back-up child care. We are located in the Henry's shopping center. Bright Horizons is now partnered with NACCRA.
