Bright Start Learning Center, Alexandria

In our open floor plan of ten naturally lit classrooms, our caring staff makes it their business to greet each family that walks through our doors. Children explore and experience their environment through activities guided by our experienced and trained lead teachers who implement their classroom programs with the support of their assistant teachers. We encourage you to come by the center for a tour of our facility, to meet our teachers, and to get to know our program. Tours are available on Tuesdays and Thursdays, at 10:00am and 4:00pm.

Gigglebytes is a program that is offered to our 4 Year Old classrooms each Monday for thirty minute lessons. Within these lessons, the Gigglebytes program offers quality computer education for young children as they learn to use computers as a tool, develop specific age appropriate computer skills, and become safe, competent computer users. However, Gigglebytes is more than just computers, the teachers have degrees in education or related fields and previous teaching experience. They work with each child to help him/her develop important academic skills including; letter and number recognition, shapes and colors, pre reading skills, phonics, spatial relations, auditory and visual discrimination, and much more!
