Childcare near Anschutz Medical Campus
Early-open, late-close daycare built for the schedules of nurses, residents, researchers, and staff at CU Anschutz, Children's Hospital Colorado, UCHealth University of Colorado Hospital, and the VA.
A 7 AM rounds start or a 12-hour nursing shift doesn't pair well with most daycare hours. Bright Stars opens at 6:30 AM and stays open until 6:00 PM, just a few minutes south of the Anschutz Medical Campus off Colfax — so drop-off fits your shift, not the other way around.
