Bright Horizons’ Tuition-free Degree Program Powers Career Advancement and Financial Mobility for Early Childhood Educators NationwideJune 24, 2026 4:05 PM
Business Wire Bright Horizons’ Horizons CDA & Degree Program provides full-time employees in Bright Horizons early education centers and preschools the opportunity to earn a CDA (“child development associate”) certificate or an associate or bachelor’s degree in early childhood education at no-cost and with no out-of-pocket expenses, including tuition, fees and books. The program, which is a first-of-its-kind offering in the early education field, enables educators to advance their careers, increase their long-term earning potential, and continue doing what they love, supporting young learners during their most formative years. This year, more than 450 early educators earned their college degree or CDA credential through Bright Horizons’ Horizons CDA & Degree Program—an investment that goes far beyond education alone. By creating pathways for career advancement and financial mobility, the program helps transform the lives of educators and strengthens the communities where they live and work. Since the program’s inception, more than 8,000 educators have enrolled in the Horizons CDA and Degree Program, with nearly 3,000 educators earning their CDA credential or college degree. “These graduates represent the very best of what’s possible when we invest in our people,” said Bright Horizons CEO Stephen Kramer. “By removing barriers to education, we’re helping create real pathways to career growth and financial mobility—opportunities that transform lives and strengthen the communities our educators serve. I’m incredibly proud to celebrate their achievements and the futures they are building.” For many graduates, the milestone represents both a deeply personal achievement and a powerful step toward greater career and financial opportunity. For Center Director Breckin V., this is especially true. She began her career with Bright Horizons as a teacher in 2012, holding an associate’s degree, and after being promoted to Assistant Director, continued to invest in her future by earning her bachelor’s degree through the program while advancing in her role. Today, as a Center Director, she has also completed a graduate certificate, further exemplifying the lasting impact of the Horizons CDA and Degree Program. “I would not be in the role I am today or have had the opportunity to grow with Bright Horizons without the ability to continue my education. It simply would not have been possible for me on my own,” said Breckin V., Center Director at Bright Horizons. “We all want to bring our very best to the children in our care each day, and the Horizons CDA and Degree Program has truly made that possible for me. Bright Horizons’ investment in education is nothing short of life-changing.” To learn more about the Horizons CDA and Degree Program, visit here. About Bright Horizons Family Solutions Inc.

As Summer Pressures Peak for Working Parents, Bright Horizons Introduces a New Science-Focused Camp OptionJune 2, 2026 4:05 PM
Business Wire New Science Factory Camp blends hands-on learning with flexible scheduling to help families navigate heightened summer care demands and ongoing work schedules Bright Horizons (NYSE:BFAM), a leading provider of high-quality early education and child care, today announced the launch of Science Factory Camp within the Bright Horizons family, an interactive science, art, and innovation program for children ages 6–12 designed to support the needs of working families. New research from the 2026 Modern Family Index underscores just how acute this challenge is: 90% of working parents say they are losing sleep over planning their children’s summer care and schedules, highlighting the growing strain families face during the summer months. Luckily, unlike traditional summer camps which often require advance planning and full-week enrollment, Science Factory Camp is designed to support families navigating unpredictable schedules, school breaks, and summer coverage gaps. Launching in select U.S. markets for summer 2026, Science Factory Camp delivers a program focused on science, art, and innovation experiences in a structured, engaging environment built to meet the needs of modern families. The program offers immersive learning without the full-week commitments typical of traditional summer camps, providing families with greater flexibility during school breaks and throughout the summer—including the option for eligible families to use Bright Horizons Back-Up Care benefits to help cover both planned and unexpected care needs. “For working parents, summer care is often the most complex and stressful part of the year,” said Stephen Kramer, CEO of Bright Horizons. “As families juggle work demands, school schedules, and coverage gaps, they need solutions that are both enriching for children and practical for working lives. Science Factory Camp is designed to do exactly that—combining high-quality, hands-on learning with flexible scheduling that helps parents stay productive and confident during the summer months.” Supporting Employers and the Modern Workforce Bright Horizons partners with employers to support workforce productivity, retention, and well-being through education and care solutions that help employees manage work and family responsibilities. Additional Modern Family Index research shows that 79% of working parents feel forced to choose between making sacrifices at home or at work, highlighting the growing need for reliable, flexible care options when school is out and schedules shift. Science Factory Camp extends that support by giving employers a science-focused camp option that aligns with the realities of modern work and care needs. By integrating with Bright Horizons Back-Up Care benefits, where available, Science Factory Camp helps families manage both planned summer schedules and unexpected gaps in care—without sacrificing meaningful learning experiences. Hands-On Learning, Built for Real Life Science Factory Camp was created for children who want to explore, experiment, and understand how the world works through hands-on activities that blend science, art, and innovation. Campers participate in guided experiences that encourage curiosity, problem-solving, and independent thinking, while benefiting from a daily structure that balances learning, creativity, and play. Programming is designed to be flexible and engaging, allowing children to participate in immersive experiences without the constraints of traditional camp formats, while still ensuring consistency, safety, and quality. With intentionally low screen time and a trial-and-error approach that encourages experimentation, campers build confidence as they create, test ideas, make mistakes, and try again in a supportive, structured environment. Summer 2026 Locations Science Factory Camp will open in multiple U.S. markets for summer 2026, with additional locations planned. More information on locations, enrollment, and availability can be found at ScienceFactoryCamp.com. About Bright Horizons Family Solutions Inc.

Business Wire New research finds 90% of working parents are kept awake at night thinking about planning their children’s child care and summer schedules For many working parents, the approach of summer brings added stress and anxiety at the thought of organizing their children’s care and activities for the long school-free months ahead.

As Employers Reset for Spring, Workers Say Skills Gaps Are the Real ClutterApril 21, 2026 4:05 PM
Business Wire
EdAssist by Bright Horizons data shows AI-driven role changes are outpacing workforce readiness


As employers reset priorities for spring planning and performance reviews, data from EdAssist by Bright Horizons (NYSE:BFAM) shows that skills gaps, particularly around artificial intelligence, are emerging as one of the biggest constraints on productivity and workforce confidence.


According to the 2025 EdAssist by Bright Horizons Education Index, conducted by The Harris Poll among more than 2,000 U.S. employees, AI is reshaping roles faster than workers feel prepared to adapt. In fact, data shows that 42% of employees expect their role to change significantly due to AI within the next year, yet more than one-third (34%) say they feel unprepared for those changes. Despite this widespread expectation of disruption, just 17% of employees report using AI frequently at work today, highlighting a clear readiness gap.


The report finds that lack of adoption is not driven by resistance, but by access to training. When employers provide AI training, usage rises sharply: 76% of employees report using AI when training is available, compared to just 25% without employer support. The data suggests that practical, job-relevant learning plays a decisive role in whether employees feel equipped to keep pace with change.


Workforce education programs can serve as a critical bridge between rapidly changing job requirements and employee readiness. Through employer-sponsored education benefits, reskilling or career pathways, and industry-recognized certifications, organizations can give workers access to practical, job-aligned learning that builds confidence and capability as roles evolve. For employers, these programs can also support retention, internal mobility, and workforce planning at a time when skills needs are shifting faster than titles.


The annual Education Index tracks how U.S. employees experience education, skills development, and career mobility amid evolving workplace demands. This year’s findings underscore the speed at which AI is entering everyday work, as well as the growing pressure employees feel to upskill accordingly.


As organizations reassess budgets, goals, and performance expectations for the remainder of the year, the research points to a clear near-term opportunity. With roles evolving rapidly and expectations increasing, addressing skills readiness, rather than staffing levels alone, may be one of the most effective ways for employers to strengthen productivity, engagement, and confidence across their workforce -- particularly through education benefits that support upskilling, reskilling, and credential attainment aligned to business needs.


Key findings from the 2025 EdAssist by Bright Horizons Education Index include:



42% of employees expect their role to change significantly due to AI in the next year



34% feel unprepared for AI-driven changes at work



Only 17% currently use AI frequently on the job



AI usage increases to 76% when employers provide training



The findings highlight a growing disconnect between how quickly work is changing and how prepared employees feel to keep pace. For employers navigating the months ahead, skills readiness may be one of the most critical factors shaping productivity and performance.

About the EdAssist by Bright Horizons Education Index


The research was conducted online in the U.S. by The Harris Poll on behalf of Bright Horizons among 2,017 US full-time/part-time employed adults aged 18+. The survey was conducted from July 31st – August 14th, 2025.


Data are weighted where necessary by age by gender, race/ethnicity, region, education, marital status, household size, employment, household income, and smoking status to bring them in line with their actual proportions in the population.


The sampling precision of Harris online polls is measured by using a Bayesian credible interval. For this study, the sample data is accurate to within ± 3.2 percentage points using a 95% confidence level. This credible interval will be wider among subsets of the surveyed population of interest.


All sample surveys and polls, whether or not they use probability sampling, are subject to other multiple sources of error which are most often not possible to quantify or estimate, including, but not limited to coverage error, error associated with nonresponse, error associated with question wording and response options, and post-survey weighting and adjustments.

Parents Say the Village is Vanishing — New Research ConfirmsMarch 9, 2026 4:05 PM
Business Wire
81% of Working Parents Report Fewer Child Care Supports Than Previous Generations


The long-held notion that “it takes a village” to raise a family feels increasingly out of reach for today’s working parents and was the focus of the first wave of research in the 2026 Modern Family Index (MFI) research study, commissioned by Bright Horizons Family Solutions, Inc. (NYSE: BFAM) and conducted by The Harris Poll.


The new research reveals that the village has all but vanished for many working parents, with 81% reporting the “village” of people that parents can rely on to help with their child care during the workday has shrunk compared to previous generations, and 77% agree that raising child(ren) requires a village.


Family dynamics have shifted and its impact is putting added pressure on working parents. An article from Forbes points out “the absence of a traditional village” only magnifies the stress that parents face today.


Research from Stanford’s 2025 RAPID Survey highlights that relatives and neighbors, traditionally a safety net for child care emergencies, are now far less consistently available, leaving families without the backup support they need. It’s no surprise then that 60% of working parents who have people they can rely on to watch/care for their child(ren) during the workday admit they often depend on a patchwork network of individuals—even though 88% say they would prefer to rely on a consistent set of caregivers during the workday.


“Forward-thinking employers are redefining what it means to support the modern workforce. As the needs of working parents continue to evolve, they deserve dependable care solutions that allow them to thrive both at work and at home,” said Bright Horizons CEO Stephen Kramer. “When organizations invest in these supports for their employees, we believe they unlock a more engaged, loyal, and productive workforce.”


Working parents surveyed also noted the difficulties in arranging child care during work hours, with many feeling at the mercy of others or feeling guilty for having to ask for help. Some additional findings among working parents:



63% wish they had more reliable, formal care for their children during the workday.



65% wish their employer played a bigger role in their “parenting village” by providing access to resources (e.g., on-site child care center, back-up services/options, etc…) to help them care for their children.



62% say finding other people to watch and/or care for their children during the workday is more difficult than they expected.



62% feel they are at the mercy of other people’s generosity when it comes to child care during their workday.



56% are constantly stressed about what they would do if their regular child care fell through or was unexpectedly unavailable during the workday.



25% are also currently providing unpaid care for an older parent or other relative, likely adding additional stress and responsibilities to their already full plates.

Research Method


The research was conducted online within the United States by The Harris Poll between January 8 – 12, 2026, among 2,097 adults ages 18 and older – among whom 611 are an employed parent or guardian of child(ren) under 18 years of age (“employed parents”), including 470 who are parents of a child(ren) age 0-12 and 141 who are parents of a child(ren) age 13-17 (but none who are 0-12). Data are weighted where necessary by age, gender, region, race/ethnicity, household income, education, marital status, size of household, and political party affiliation to bring them in line with their actual proportions in the population.


Respondents are selected among those who have agreed to participate in our surveys. The sampling precision of Harris online polls is measured by using a Bayesian credible interval. The sample data is accurate to within ± 2.5 percentage points using a 95% confidence level. This credible interval will be wider among subsets of the surveyed population of interest.

“Our diversified, integrated education and care solutions supported by our broad client base drove a strong fourth quarter and a solid finish to the year,” said Stephen Kramer, Chief Executive Officer. “Back-Up Care remained a standout all year — generating more than $725 million in revenue in 2025. As we move into 2026, we remain focused on deepening our impact with the employers and families we serve, enhancing our services, and investing in people and technology to drive growth, support margin progress, and deliver the highest quality care and education.”


Fourth Quarter 2025 Results


Revenue increased by $59.6 million, or 9%, to $733.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, from the fourth quarter of 2024, due primarily to increased utilization of back-up care services as well as enrollment gains and tuition price increases at our centers.


Income from operations was $45.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to $48.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, a decrease of 6%. The decrease in income from operations is primarily related to incremental impairment and net lease termination costs of $14.8 million, partially offset by incremental gross profit contributions resulting from higher utilization of back-up care services, as well as contributions from our full service center-based child care centers from enrollment growth and operating leverage. Net income was $21.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to $29.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, a decrease of 25%, due to the decrease in income from operations noted above and a higher effective tax rate. Diluted earnings per common share was $0.38 for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to $0.50 for the fourth quarter of 2024.


In the fourth quarter of 2025, adjusted EBITDA* increased by $12.8 million, or 12%, to $123.5 million, and adjusted income from operations* increased by $11.2 million, or 14%, to $90.6 million from the fourth quarter of 2024, due to increased contributions from both the back-up care and full service center-based child care segments. Adjusted net income* increased by $7.7 million, or 14%, to $65.1 million, as a result of the increase in adjusted income from operations noted above. Diluted adjusted earnings per common share* was $1.15 for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to $0.98 for the fourth quarter of 2024.


As of December 31, 2025, the Company operated 1,010 early education and child care centers with the capacity to serve approximately 115,000 children and their families.


*Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted income from operations, adjusted net income and diluted adjusted earnings per common share are financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), which are commonly referred to as “non-GAAP financial measures.” Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA (which is net income, as determined in accordance with GAAP, before interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization) adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation expense and non-recurring costs, such as impairment and net lease termination costs, debt refinance costs, and at times, other non-recurring costs, such as transaction costs. Adjusted income from operations represents income from operations, as determined in accordance with GAAP, adjusted to exclude non-recurring costs, such as impairment and net lease termination costs, debt refinance costs, and at times, other non-recurring costs, such as transaction costs. Adjusted net income represents net income, as determined in accordance with GAAP, adjusted to exclude amortization, stock-based compensation expense, and non-recurring costs, such as impairment and net lease termination costs, debt refinance costs, interest incurred related to a pre-acquisition obligation, and the income tax provision (benefit) thereon, and at times, other non-recurring costs, such as transaction costs. Diluted adjusted earnings per common share is calculated using adjusted net income. These non-GAAP financial measures are more fully described and are reconciled from the respective measures determined under GAAP in “Presentation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and the attached table “Bright Horizons Family Solutions Inc. Non-GAAP Reconciliations,” respectively.


Balance Sheet and Liquidity


At December 31, 2025, the Company had $140.1 million of cash and cash equivalents and $383.7 million available for borrowing under our revolving credit facility. In the year ended December 31, 2025, we generated approximately $350.7 million of cash from operations, compared to $337.5 million for the same period in 2024, and made net investments totaling $103.8 million, compared to $117.8 million for the same period in the prior year.


2026 Outlook


Based on current trends and expectations, we currently expect fiscal year 2026 revenue to be in the range of $3.075 billion to $3.125 billion and diluted adjusted earnings per common share to be in the range of $4.90 to $5.10. The Company will provide additional information on its outlook during its earnings conference call.

Forward-Looking Statements


This press release includes forward looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company’s actual results may vary significantly from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements, which can generally be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, including the terms “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “projects,” “approximately,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates” or “anticipates,” or, in each case, their negatives or other variations or comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements include all matters that are not historical facts, including statements regarding the Company’s intentions, beliefs or current expectations concerning, among other things, our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, operating expectations, execution and delivery of our services and solutions, business trends, value of our model, our offerings, our future growth opportunities, enrollment levels, margins, back-up care, our investments, long-term growth strategy, estimated effective tax rate, tax expense, our future business and financial performance, client partners and relationships, use and impact of our services, share repurchase activity and our 2026 financial guidance. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future. The Company believes that these risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, changes in the demand for child care, dependent care and other workplace solutions, including variations in enrollment trends and lower than expected demand from employer sponsor clients as well as variations in workforce demographics and work environments; the constrained labor market for teachers and staff and ability to hire and retain talent, including the impact of increased compensation and labor costs; the availability or lack of government support programs, and the impact of available government child care benefit programs; our ability to respond to changing client and customer needs; competition in our industry; the possibility that acquisitions may disrupt our operations and expose us to additional risk; our ability to pass on our increased costs; our indebtedness and the terms of such indebtedness; our ability to withstand seasonal fluctuations in the demand for our services; our ability to implement our growth strategies successfully; changes in general economic, political, business and financial market conditions and other macroeconomic events and uncertainty, including the impact of inflation and interest rate fluctuations; fluctuations in currency exchange rates; the effects of a cyber-attack, data breach or other security incident on our information technology system or software or those of our third party vendors; changes in tax rates or policies; damage or harm to our brand or reputation, including as a result of recent incidents and media coverage; litigation and insurance risks; changes in laws and regulations; and other risks and uncertainties more fully described in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on February 27, 2025, and other factors disclosed from time to time in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the time of this release and we do not undertake to publicly update or revise them, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.


Presentation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures


In addition to the results provided in accordance with GAAP throughout this press release, the Company has provided certain non-GAAP financial measures that present operating results on a basis adjusted for certain items. The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures as key performance indicators for the purpose of evaluating performance internally, and in connection with determining incentive compensation for Company management, including executive officers. Adjusted EBITDA is also used in connection with the determination of certain ratio requirements under our credit agreement. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with useful information with respect to our historical operations. These non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to replace, and should not be considered superior to, the presentation of our financial results in accordance with GAAP. The use of the terms adjusted EBITDA, adjusted income from operations, adjusted net income and diluted adjusted earnings per common share may differ from similar measures reported by other companies and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures.


With respect to our outlook for diluted adjusted earnings per common share, we do not provide the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure or corresponding reconciliation to such GAAP financial measure on a forward-looking basis. We are unable to predict with reasonable certainty and without unreasonable effort certain items such as the timing and amount of net excess income tax benefits or shortfalls, future impairments, lease termination costs, transaction costs, and other non-recurring costs, as well as gains or losses from the early retirement of debt and the outcome from legal proceedings. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors outside our management’s control, and could significantly impact, either individually or in the aggregate, our future period earnings per common share as calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.


For more information regarding adjusted EBITDA, adjusted income from operations, adjusted net income and diluted adjusted earnings per common share, refer to the reconciliation of GAAP financial measures to the non-GAAP financial measures in the attached table “Bright Horizons Family Solutions Inc. Non-GAAP Reconciliations.”
