Parent Reviews
Our daughter has been at Bright Moon for over a year, since she was 6 months old, and she loves it. She is excited and happy to see Adiel everyday and it's clear she has a lot of fun with all the other kids too. In between her drawing, reading, and playing time, she is well fed and takes a good nap. She is learning words and instructions in Spanish as well as English which has been an amazing step to see take shape. She enjoys it a ton and seems to grow and learn a lot each day. We're super happy we found this place.
My 2 year old has been with Adiel since he was 5 months old and is so incredibly happy there! They have a great routine of breakfast, art, reading, outings to the park, music and more. They make sure to send lots of pictures and updates. I couldn’t be happier. I am the mother of three and this is hands down our best daycare experience. I highly recommend Bright Moon Daycare.
We feel incredibly lucky to have found Bright Moon, and we can’t say enough good things about the care our son received there. Our son attended Bright Moon from just after his first birthday until he started preschool, and it was a truly wonderful, formative experience for him. Like many parents, we came in feeling a bit anxious (sending your baby to daycare is a big leap of trust, and we were coming off of a tough first daycare experience), but it quickly became clear that Bright Moon was a special place and that our son was in exceptionally good hands. One of the standout aspects of Bright Moon is the quality of care and attention given to each child. Our son went through many big milestones while he was there—learning to walk and talk, navigating sleep transitions, dropping bottles—and the team supported him (and us) through all of it with patience, flexibility, and care. When he started, his sleep was quite dysregulated, and they worked thoughtfully to help him get onto a consistent schedule, later partnering closely with us again when it was time to drop naps. It always felt like they were truly paying attention to what he needed and responding accordingly. Bright Moon is also a Spanish immersion daycare, which was a huge added bonus for our family. Our son was consistently exposed to Spanish throughout the day, and by the time he left, he had developed real comfort with the language. He’s now able to communicate with his preschool teachers in Spanish, which made his transition to preschool much smoother. At the same time, Steven , who runs Bright Moon, speaks excellent English, and communication with parents is seamless even if you don’t speak Spanish yourself. Communication overall is outstanding. Steven is warm, clear, responsive, and deeply thoughtful, and we always felt fully informed. We received regular updates through the Brightwheel app about our son’s days—what he was doing, how he was feeling, eating, and sleeping—which was incredibly reassuring. Any time our son was struggling or not feeling well, we felt like Steven and the team truly partnered with us, communicating openly and compassionately. Most importantly, Bright Moon is a place where children are genuinely loved. It truly felt like our son was treated as a member of their family. He was excited to go each day, talked about daycare at home constantly, and it was clear how much he was known and cared for. When his time there came to an end, it was obvious how much the teachers cared about him—and even now, he still talks about his daycare experience. The physical space and location are also wonderful. While Bright Moon is technically an in-home daycare, the space is large, bright, and airy, with plenty of room to move and play. The location is idyllic—right across from a neighborhood park with daily outdoor time, close to additional green spaces, and in a walkable area that made pickup and drop-off feel easy and pleasant. We were also reassured knowing that Bright Moon is run by the same family as Sion Family Daycare, which already had a strong reputation among friends—and that confidence was absolutely borne out by our experience. Sending your child to daycare can feel daunting, especially with your first, but Bright Moon made it feel safe, supportive, and even joyful. We trusted Steven and the entire team completely, and we would wholeheartedly recommend Bright Moon to any family looking for a warm, responsive, high-quality daycare environment.
We have loved our time with Bright Moon. From the first time we visited, my husband and I immediately felt comfortable with Adiel and with the space. It is clean, airy and safe. It was also very important to me to have a bilingual education for our son which was an added bonus. Our son has been going there for 8 months now, since he was 1yo and he always seems happy to be there. I love that they use the Bright Wheel app to send us updates about what our son is up to during the day, including his meals, their daily time at the park, playing with toys, being read to, playing with musical instruments and more!
I am so happy I found Adiel and his team. They provide a safe, clean, fun, and nurturing environment for my son. He has been with Bright Moon Daycare for 2 months now and he clearly loves going there. He smiles every morning when I drop him off. Adiel and his team are very caring and responsive. They even managed to get my child that refused to take the bottle at home to drink really well from the bottle - a true feat! They go to the park every day, read, and provide age-appropriate toys and stimulation. I can only recommend this wonderful place!
Our son started with Bright Moon at 9 months and it has been a great experience. Adiel is great at communicating and always there to answer the many questions of first time daycare parents. Seeing how sweet and kind Adiel and Alejandra are with our child reassures us every day we chose the right place. They use the Brightwheel app and it has been great getting pictures and updates on naps, food and diapers throughout the day. It’s great to see all the activities they do like going to the park, story time, interactive play and the integration of Spanish. We love seeing our little one so happy at daycare.
We started our 10 months old son at Bright Moon about 1 months ago when the daycare just opened. The teachers communicate updates throughout the day via an app. It's great to see our son enjoying fresh foods (breakfast and snacks) provided by the daycare, playing with various toys, reading books, and goes to the nearby park on daily basis. We were a bit worried about the transition for our boy from another daycare to Bright Moon, but he is adjusting well to the nurturing and fun environment. Our experience has been great so far. :)
I am thrilled to share my positive experience with Adiel. As a parent, finding a reliable and nurturing caregiver is essential, and I can confidently say that Adiel exceeded my expectations. Adiel is not only highly qualified but also genuinely caring . He creates a warm and welcoming environment for the children. Adiel is a top-notch caregiver that combines professionalism with genuine care. I highly recommend it.
Steven has been the best care provider I’ve had for my children. Very attentive and caring for my twin boys. Steven was very loving with my boys, he taught them Spanish and had several activities to keep them busy and entertained. I highly recommend him for your child, I received lots of attention and great with communication! 10/10 for him.
From the very first day Alejandra began taking care of our son, we knew we had made the right choice. Her attentive approach and her ability to connect with children are truly exceptional. Alejandra has demonstrated an incredible capacity to attend to the individual needs of each child. In the case of our son, she has been able to provide a learning and play environment that not only kept him safe and happy but also fostered his social and cognitive development.
