Bright Minds Academy

We've loved watching our son grow & learn & develop great friendships with classmates and teachers. BMA has provided such a peace of mind when we drop our child off; something that means so much to us. We’re going to miss BMA when our son starts Kindergarten. BMA is amazing!

We absolutely love BMA! We enjoy all of the activities and the ability to check in on the cameras from time to time. Thank you for everything you guys do for the children and my child specifically. We feel so comfortable leaving our child in the care of BMA every day!

Our family has moved a lot, so we've been exposed to home daycare, a nanny, and other centers. BMA has by far been our most positive and favorite experience. Thank you for being so proactive in our son's life through activities and experiences and hiring quality teachers!

We love the quality of the staff and the activities that are planned for the kids. Being apart of BMA, it’s amazing to see how much this place has grown and changed! Our son has grown into a funny, kind young man because of the teachers he has had since he was an infant.

We love how staff and teachers greet us and acknowledge our child. You can tell that all the staff knows our kid even if they have been in their class. Cameras are plus, not to spy but to know that there is nothing to hide. It brightens your day to see your kiddo happy.

We. Love. Everything! The staff is so creative with their ideas, and our son gets to do things he would never do otherwise! We cannot say enough good things about BMA - so glad that a facility like this is available in Hays!

We’ve enjoyed watching our kiddo develop new skills he may not have learned in other environments. We are so appreciative of the minimal screen time & how active the kids are throughout the day. The dependability & consistency of BMA can't go unmentioned for working parents!

The staff are great. Caring, friendly & professional. The learning environment is great, my daughter has learned so much. I love all the outside play time. The video system is nice to have & the hours are great. It’s nice to be able to drop early & pick up late when needed.

I love the atmosphere! Everyone is so welcoming and has a smile on their face I also have enjoyed how BMA has helped my child grow and meet milestones. There are so many fun activities planned for the kiddos. I thoroughly enjoy the spirit weeks, events, and everything else!

We are glad we were able to get a spot in such a great program. We enjoy the age appropriate activities for the kids both on & off-site. Coming from an in-home daycare, it's turned summertime from something that my child wasn't excited about into something they really enjoy!

All of the staff are great! We love the photos, updates, educational materials, & crafts. I am so thankful to have you guys in our community. Thank you for all that you do! When I drop my child off, I am at peace because I know that he is happy & safe when in your care.

Bright Minds is a wonderful organization and we are lucky to have you in our community. Thank you to all of the staff for everything you do for our kids. I can't tell you how important it is to have childcare that you can depend on and trust to leave your child in good care.

We enjoy how dependable BMA is and all the love that they give to our kids! You have helped our kids flourish and become the best version of themselves! It will be hard to move to something new when they graduate!

We were so thankful and blessed that you created the summer program! It was so nice to have a place for my child to go where I knew he would have fun, be safe, and interact with other children. He loved all the field tripes and activities and getting to meet new friends.

We have enjoyed the staff treating our girl with love & respect, as if she were their own child. Staff is easy to communicate with. We enjoy receiving pictures & videos of the fun activities. BMA encourages the children to be independent while nurturing them positively.

I really enjoy that the teachers are very interactive with our daughter & they keep us updated on how she is doing as she approaches milestones. We have had a really wonderful experience at BMA and know our daughter is being well taken care of! We appreciate all that you do!

BMA has been a blessing. We are truly happy here!. Our child has loved every teacher and the directors. You can tell they enjoy it and are actively learning. Our child has grown so much this past year and a huge part of that is because of BMA. Thanks for all that you do!

I just want to thank you all for opening up your community to us. We have experienced so much change in the past two months with moving cross country & we have all felt a sense of genuine care & consideration. Everyone has shown great communication & character. We love BMA!

I am so so happy with the care you provide for my child. I have seen her grow, and she has learned so much since being here! She has loved every second! The communication & organization skills of the teachers have been excellent.

The field trips are great, and the staff do an amazing job. I know our child is learning, having fun, and being cared for. BMA is great! Although our child is off to Kindergarten, I hope BMA will continue to be a part of his childhood.

My son doesn't have other children his age to socialize with outside of BMA, so we are THRILLED with his exposure to big & small group activities. We are so happy with his educational development!!! Everything seems intimidating as new parents, so we are so glad to have BMA!

Andrea and Nick have put so much into Bright Minds. I’m sure they've sacrificed many things, likely including free time and family time. I hope that other parents echo this. The community, the parents, and the kids appreciate everything that you do. Thank you is not enough!

Bright Minds Summertime gave the kids a nice combination of structured learning & scheduled activities in addition to unstructured free play time. Not to mention all of the amazing field trips! My kids really enjoyed their time at the Bright Minds summer program. Thank you!

We cannot say enough good things about the BMA summer program. The field trips were above & beyond what we expected, & the teachers were excellent! We love BMA & appreciate all the effort you put into providing great childcare in the community. You have our complete support!

Our kiddo got to engage with other kids his age & go on all kinds of adventures this Summer! He met new friends & was always very excited to go! Knowing we had a safe, fun, consistent place for our child who wasn't quite old enough to stay home alone was invaluable to us.

We are so grateful to have our children at BMA. We are amazed that our 2.5 year old already knows her numbers, letters, and is working on counting by 10! I love the crafts and the activities where they get to get tastes! Love the lemonade stand! So many amazing activities.

I've seen a growth in my son's development in the time he has been at BMA more so than any other place he'd attended previously. The staff are all very caring & it means a lot that they all seem to know his name even if he is not in their class. I know he is well cared for!

When my child comes home from BMA, the first thing we hear is 'I had a GREAT day!' and we get big hugs. Knowing that he loves his teachers & the environment to tell me that consistently lets me know that he's well cared for. He also tells us what he does & who he plays with!

Love having a place to take my child that works with my working hours. It's also very reassuring I know my child is safe and in good care, and that she absolutely loves her daycare. This is a huge need for the community that has been filled! Very thankful!

All of the learning activities and themed weeks were really nice while still being summer fun and not too school-like. We (both parent and child) LOVED the summer program and all of the teachers!

We love the structure!! In every room, there is a ton of learning while having fun and I’m here for that for young kids!!! You guys are doing a great job!!!

I truly enjoy that my child wants to come to school everyday. She really enjoys all of the variety that you guys have to offer. She has learned so much from her teachers! We’ve truly loved it here!

The staff truly care about our kids and family. We appreciate their dedication to our children! Plus, the flexibility of the hours is unmatched in our community.

We appreciate all of the new experiences our child has gotten to have & new friends they have made while being at the summer program! We look forward to enrolling our child again next summer!

I have absolutely love Bright Minds Summertime for our son!!! We truly loved all the field trips, too!! :) This program has been amazing for our family!

We love that we can check in & see our child. We love the themes & the activities. We love the outside play time. We love that one of his teachers cuddles him. The transition from being at home to a childcare center truly has gone more smoothly than we could have hoped!

We enjoy the updates through the communication app, camera access, facility cleanliness & maintenance, and facility safety/security. We have two children at BMA & would recommend to anyone!

We were so excited to get to be a part of the first Bright Minds Summertime program! Our kiddo had so much fun meeting new friends this summer and going on all kinds of adventures. We will definitely be back!

I enjoy all the fun activities and crafts, and that they learn so much! Thank you for being a reliable, caring, childcare, and teaching the kids all they need to know before kindergarten.

We enjoy the long hours, and the teachers who genuinely love our kids! You all are amazing and we appreciate you very much!!

The teachers are great! Our oldest had a great time going on all of the field trips in the summer program!

We love watching our child learn new things in a supportive environment. BMA does a great job! Fantastic organization. We love it!

The amazing teachers have been fantastic for the growth of our child.

We love the friendly environment and how easy it is to work with all the staff! Thanks for loving those children day in and day out! 💜

We love having a safe loving environment for my child to grow & learn! Thank you for taking such good care of my kids!!

Overall, you guys are outstanding. We love all of the activities you provide for the children.

It has been wonderful to watch our children connect with the staff and be genuinely happy to go each day!

I feel like it is a very warm and safe environment for my child.
