The BrightStart Play Academy is available for families with young children living in the Greater Manchester area. The Play Academy features opportunities for Playful Learning for children from infancy on. Fun learning experiences are prepared by child development experts and staffed by community volunteers. There are three play areas at our location at 20 Hartford Road in Manchester. Parents must remain on the premises to enjoy our Parent Café or participate in learning about a range of topics important to parents of young children. The BrightStart Play Academy will be open from 10 until 11:30am on most Saturdays.

We address many common challenges parents face as they raise young children. Please check Facebook for updates and weekly topics.
