The Right Place For Finding The Right Pros Near You!
My 4 kids have been going to Bright and Early since they were each 4 months old. We initially started at a different location and transferred here shortly after it was acquired from Cradles to Crayons given its closer to our home. I want to start by saying that the teachers here are incredible. They are nurturing, friendly, respectful, and you can tell they truly care about each child. Every staff member knows every child’s name - regardless of what class they’re in - that’s been something I’ve always been impressed with. They treat the kids like family and really create an environment where the kids feel comfortable and as though it’s their second home. My oldest always asks if his teachers and friends can come over and play at his house - he just loves them and really bonds with them. These teachers go above and beyond - a few examples from just the past month are how they helped my oldest make a surprise card for my husband’s birthday; when my second oldest was sad, they brought him to his older brother who let him borrow a stuffed animal; they got crafty with yarn and found a way to get my kid’s shorts to stay up when I sent him in clothes too big for him (but fit the theme of the day); and the infant teachers always get my twins laughing and never ever complain about the amount of blowouts/outfit changes they have/need. They’re there for it all, always with a smile on their face.
I will say, I know the other parents who wrote the one star reviews and can’t fault them for that. At the time of the reviews, the center was going through a time of transitions. A lot of parents, including myself, were frustrated at the high turnover of leadership and concerned about the turnover of teachers and if we’d lose more good teachers due to the leadership instability. The center was also short staffed then, so my kids often didn’t have consistency in teachers because the teachers were getting pulled to cover different rooms. My husband and I even considered moving our kids elsewhere. Since then, they’ve brought in new leadership (one was a teacher from the center we first started at, who we love) and I have noticed a great difference. The previous leadership was nice, but the turnover really concerned us. Luckily the teachers have stayed, and they’ve successfully brought in more. My kids are happier, more excited to go to school, and love all of the outdoor time and fun things they do all day there. I’ll always feel guilty that I send them to daycare, but knowing how much they learn, and how great they are cared for really helps ease my mind. Just wish there was a multi-kid/family discount!
Also really grateful for the parent community here. Everyone who I have met is friendly and real. I feel like everyone looks out for and supports each other - it’s just an uplifting way to start the day seeing the other parents as we all just try to survive (and cherish) these young childhood years.
Keith is a great attorney! He’s readily available, super knowledgeable, and comes prepared. Highly recommend!
Great pricing, awesome quality. Will def recommend Frank and Aidens services to all my friends!
Shelbie is by far one of the best hair stylists and master colorist I’ve ever worked with. I’ve been getting my hair colored/cut for over 15 years and my color, the shape, and the cut for my face has never been more beautiful. I couldn’t be happier with her work. This is the third time I’ve gone to her, and I have no doubts I’ll be a client for life. Her personality is also the best! She makes you feel so comfortable. 5 Stars for sure!
Omg this place is amazing beautiful furniture gorgeous place but the way they treat each other was so heartwarming. Also each and every person that walks in omg. Gracie was my stylist and incredibly talented is putting it mildly. I cannot say enough great things about this place it's a must try !!! Ty to each and every one of them
I had a great experience the staff was professional and courteous the office was spotless, Dr Helpurn was very nice I would recommend this office to anyone who asked
Dr. Wolfson and staff treated me with respect and patience. I loved the new surgical center!
Professional, flexible, affordable, and high-quality! They put a drywell in for us, and they independently coordinated with the plumber and reseeded and covered the lawn once they were done! We'll definitely have them out to help with other projects. Thanks again.
Claudia Santangelo (and staff) at Artisan Tile is the most amazing and professional contractor and designer with whom we have ever worked! She is client forward/centered, has a great eye for design and is very easy to work with. First and foremost she wants her clients to be happy with whatever they are choosing to accomplish in their home! Her suggestions for us were “spot on” and she was ever mindful of what we wanted to accomplish. Every step of the way she provided the skilled crew (tile, carpentry, plumbing, painting, countertops) and every step of our project was seamless and professional!She came out to look at our kitchen (no charge), gave us suggestions, took measurements for sink, faucet and counters and came back when our cabinets were being measured for the quartz countertops. Since completing our kitchen update, she has followed up with us to be sure we are happy and enjoying our kitchen. Highly recommend! We plan to use her for our master bathroom updating too!Services: Tile work installation
Arrow repaired a very large sink hole in our driveway and repaved that section. They then came back out and sealed everything. They did an excellent job. The price was very reasonable and quality of work top notch.Services: Asphalt paving & repair
Highly skilled tree service contractors, exceeding customer expectations with their expertise.
They do a good job every time.
Been going there since they open, many years ago
Dr. Steinbacher is attentive and professional in his care of patients. The team is wonderful and his results are impressive!
he is a great plumber and tries to address your concerns as quick as possible and also he does the concerns for a great price and he is getting to retire so he cant do big jobs anymore even though he would still like to help everybody out there
First time at this groomer. They were so kind and patient with my difficult, matted puppy. I’m thrilled with her groom! And that they invited her back!

Loved my hair! Thanks. Been going there for years. Lovely place. Lots of hair product useful for reversing and hiding hair flaws.
It's so hard to find a great hairdresser who does color well -- Steven is an artist! I am so excited to have discovered this jewel of a salon on the coastline! Very happy customer indeed.

I’ve been going to Angela for 10 years and she has never disappointed. Besides the fact that she is the nicest, most comforting person ever, she is so dedicated to her work and truly loves what she does. I have extremely thick, complicated hair and she works with it like it’s easy! She has done everything from all over vibrant colors, to blonde makeover in may hair, and always delivers above and beyond! She has taken time to understand me and my hair, and I am so grateful for her expertise! (She is also hilarious). You will NOT be disappointed!
Great quick cut both times I've been. Quick, but not rushed. She's a pro.
Aaron is a great dude. Got me in late night, same day, the day before Xmas eve - one of the busiest days of the year. He cut both my hair & beard and made my beard look like it never has. Extremely professional guy and very welcoming every time. Highly recommend if you are in the area.
Specialities: Beard cuts
Hair type: Short hair, long beard
Tom is the best. I've been going there for at least five years and I don't go anywhere else to get my hair cut anymore. Every time I walk out, my haircut looks great.
Ava did a wonderful job! Nice place without noise. They listened to me and these are my nails almost 2 weeks later! Will be coming back! Second picture is 2 weeks strong on a gel manicure! Great manicure! The blue lasted
3 weeks and the purple was done yesterday!
I walked out today feeling so relaxed after a pedicure with hot stones, leg massage and shoulder massage. The owners and staff could not be nicer. Everything is immaculate.
Wonderful place!
I love Sarah’s Nail Nook! Fresh pedicure and a three-week-old gel manicure pictured. Obviously it looked better when new but lasting 3+ weeks and still looking/feeling great from a short distance is a huge win in my book. Wonderful service every time.
The staff is super nice and caring. They take their time with you and do a great job! Lovely environment!
The best!! My husband and I have been coming to Deco Nails for a few years now. Their spa pedicures are amazing… and most, if not all — come with a 20 minute massage. Heaven. The staff is welcoming and thoughtful — the music is relaxing, and while they’re often booked (make appt a little bit ahead of time) — it never feels too busy or chaotic. Always such a good experience!!
Absolutely love Villa! Everyone is friendly. The teamwork is inspiring. The salon is very clean.
Stephanie at Echo is amazing!! She's a really talented stylist and I've been so happy with her. She's currently doing Procell treatments on me that's helping me regrow thinning hair! And you must meet Romeo the resident pup :)
Fantastic salon! My hair looks great every time, and everyone is super sweet! Would definitely recommend. Thank you ladies!
Amazing haircut, even more incredible personnel! Thank you so much! Can’t wait to be back!
It was fabulous! I love the way Jill does my hair, perfect color & style every time!!
I love Roxy! She’s been doing my hair for over 12 years and I keep coming back! I always leave feeling happy and beautiful with the results! The studio has a warm and relaxing environment that makes you feel peaceful. Definitely check her out!
Love Laurie and love the way she cuts my hair, does a great job every time!!Service: Haircut
Excellent first time experience. This woman has a new customer. My hair was done perfectly. The beautician was incredibly attentive, answered all my questions. It was a perfect and incredibly satisfying experience.
The haircut and color were beautiful. I had to have corrective color done, and it came out fabulous. I went there because I have asthma and bad allergies. I am super sensitive to any synthetic smells. The air was much more tolerable than in a regular salon and they seemed really conscious of people's allergies. The products used to highlight and dye had no odor. However, the shampoo and possibly detangler were awful. I went on Thursday; it is now Saturday night. I have washed my hair 4 times with clarifying shampoo, and the smell is still there. I even did an apple cider vinegar/water rinse in between washings. I have been wearing my hair in a ponytail because I can smell it less. My nose, throat, and lungs are so irritated still. If I get up the nerve to go again, I will bring my own unscented products. If it wasn't for this, I would of given it 5 stars.
I was looking for a new place and he didn’t disappoint. He listened to what I wanted and was precise, they came out so good!
Melodie, whom provides nail services, waxing, and more, is a joy and a pleasure to spend time with, as she makes her clients feel beautiful inside and out. Her room is separated and private from the hair stylists, which allows for a serene and tranquil experience. Melodie is warm, friendly, genuine, skillful, and talented. I always look forward to how good I look and feel from her services.
I am over the moon with Hair Off The Grid! Jackie and Kayla are the dynamic duo! I receive compliments every day on my hair, it’s never looked healthier!
What a lovely spa experience! My friends and I enjoyed a warm welcome, an inviting spa, a rejuvenating facial with excellent products and an amazing massage experience. I would totally recommend this place!
Maria offers the best facials on the shoreline. Trust me, tried them all. She is fantastic!
I recently discovered Spavia through a Groupon and had an incredible experience. From the moment I walked in, I was enveloped in a calm and serene atmosphere that set the tone for my visit.
I starred with a massage done by Alisa, which was exceptional. Alisa’s technique was perfect! She was very responsive to my needs. She skillfully worked out all the tension in my muscles, leaving me feeling completely relaxed and revitalized.
I followed up the massage with a facial by Susan, and I cannot say enough good things about her expertise. She was professional, attentive, and made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire process. My skin feels rejuvenated. Susan truly has a gift for what she does and gave me great skincare advice.
Overall, the quality of service at Spavia was top-notch, and I left feeling like a new person. If you’re looking for a place to unwind and treat yourself to some much-needed self-care, I highly recommend Spavia. I am now a member because of my wonderful first visit. Thank you!
Felicia is AMAZING, best Swedish massage ever! And my first ever facial by Jeannette was incredible
So glad I called them! Canestei was recommended to us by a family member and they did not steer us wrong. The technicians were honest and efficient. They could have very easily charged us more for unnecessary work but they were upfront and explained in detail what they did and why. Looking forward to working with them again.
5/5/2025 Editing to add another great review! Corey and Jason were dispatched to our home to help with a leak that had been plaguing us for quite some time. They were kind, professional and helpful. My kids were extra curious about what they were up to and they were very gracious with them being around.
Canestri, you have some great people working for you; keep it up! We have inherited a bit of a water nightmare in our home which will need continued maintenance and repair and you can be sure we will be sticking with these guys for years to come.
he is a great plumber and tries to address your concerns as quick as possible and also he does the concerns for a great price and he is getting to retire so he cant do big jobs anymore even though he would still like to help everybody out there
Most reliable plumber I've found in CT. Whole team is great. Highly recommend!
Incredible results and a great experience with Bill and his team who artfully managed every supply and logistics roadblock imaginable during covid. Highly skilled, communicative, efficient, flexible, and above all they were excellent human beings to have on site. This was a large addition/reno project managed while my family still lived and worked in the home. The team was clean, respectful, and helpful throughout what was likely not the easiest project to manage with family on site. Lakeview exceeded my expectations in all areas and I love my home.

Shorehaven Landscaping did an amazing job on my rock wall and walkway! The design was excellent and really transformed my yard. Their team was dedicated, considerate, and always showed up on time. They worked hard, paid attention to detail, and made sure everything came out perfect. Super easy to work with and an all-around excellent company. Highly recommend!
I wish I had taken “before” photos of the jungle that was my yard. In one day Chris transformed the entire property. Highly recommend!
We were so happy with the work the team did. Highly recommend them! Easy to work with. Competitive pricing. We will be using them in the future!
Great experience all around. Very experienced crew, competitive price, and a fast and clean tree removal. Can’t recommend these guys enough!
Highly skilled tree service contractors, exceeding customer expectations with their expertise.
Bartlett’s local rep, Mike, was very responsive to our call for an estimate to remove a tree on our property. He was able to schedule a crew in short order at a fair price.
Chandler, Jacob, and Francisco expertly removed the tree. The team was quite efficient and professional. The gentleman that ground out the stump was a true magician demonstrating top shelf ability to operate equipment.
When they left you hardly knew they were there. I was more than pleased with their work.
Best Dental practice ever!! Dr. Michael is awesome, does impeccable dental work along with a terrific chair side manner. Everyone is professional and nice. Thank you for my new veneers!! Rebecca Girioni
After moving away from my home town I had a lot of trouble finding a good dentist. I went to a lot of practices one time and moved on. After my first visit to Guilford Smiles I knew this was my practice of choice for the remainder of my time living in this area.
Good communication, very friendly and helpful professionals, the office looks good. They perform different types of dental procedures.
Our two tuxedo cat sisters were given their annual exam by Dr Soucy and her assistant.
Both exams were detailed and thorough and both Emily and Frida were handled gently. We were given helpful and experience- based information and advice regarding our concerns for their care going forward.
Perfect visit. Attentive, un-rushed, clean office, on time appointment. Definitely five stars.
Dr. Alter and his staff are top tier and wonderful. Great expertise, decent fees and a genuine love for animals keep me coming back year after year. They sincerely adore and care about my cats; it's steadily apparent. Dr. Alter also saved - and preserved - the life of one of my cats whom he diagnosed with cardiomyopathy. After the necessary tests and realizing that surgery was impossible, he prescribed potent medication and baby aspirin, which kept her viable and comfortable for three and a half more years than she would've had previously without a proper diagnosis. I will ALWAYS be grateful to Dr. Alter and his staff for their knowledge and kindness.
Caring and compassionate! Tucker loves going to see everyone…may not like his toes touched but we’re working on it! Awesome office and staff!!!
Diana gave me a 90 minute deep tissue massage. She worked on my multiple muscle spasms, always asking if the pressure was too hard or not. She helped me breathe through it and I left feeling better than I have in months. I highly recommend her, and plan to see her on a regular basis.
Danielle is an excellent massage therapist. I have been coming to her for years, and she has helped alleviate a lot of the tension in my back and shoulders. Danielle’s space is clean and inviting. I can’t recommend her highly enough!
I have used shoreline massage to work at private events for my entertainment agency and they always do a great job!
My twin and I both passed our tests on the first try, now my little brother is going and it's going great!
Our experience with Next Street was excellent. My daughter took the 30 hour full training program and took the license test at the Guilford location. The process was seamless and the guidance snd support more than expected. Al C. at the Guilford location was informative and made the testing process a pleasure.
