Bright Start

About Us

Bright Start Learning Center has provided care for Leadville families since 2005. Our curriculum is based on child-lead learning with teachers acting as a support for their learning. We also strive to help your child develop essential skills to support their social-emotional growth, fine and gross motor skills, literacy, and verbal skills through play-based strategies
