About us

A home away from home

Bright Life Learning Center is a small, licensed home daycare in the Renton Highlands neighborhood of Renton, Washington, welcoming children since 2010. We care for a group of up to twelve — small enough that every child is known, nurtured, and encouraged to be exactly who they are.

Our days are play-based and bilingual. Children learn naturally in English and Russian through stories, songs, hands-on projects, and plenty of time to explore, imagine, and be little. Warm, patient, and consistent — just like family.

— Nina Belsner, Program Director
