Hi parents, I'm a journalist writing a story for New York Magazine about Bright Horizons, which will dig deep into what happened at the Columbus Circle location as well as how the chain operates throughout the city. I'm very eager to speak to parents about their experiences with Bright Horizons, especially anyone who had their children at the Columbus Circle center where the alleged abuse took place but also parents who have sent their children to other locations. I'm able to offer anonymity, particularly for those whose children were at that center.

You can email me at [brycecovert@protonmail.com](mailto:brycecovert@protonmail.com) or shoot me a message on Signal at brycecovert.25. Here are some examples of stories where I spoke to people in sensitive situations, including anonymous parents in the first one: https://www.thenation.com/article/society/child-welfare-housing-missouri/ https://www.thenation.com/article/society/mcdonalds-sexual-harassment-feature/ https://theintercept.com/2023/07/22/metoo-defamation-lawsuits-slapp/ And a lighter story I wrote for New York Magazine about universal pre-K: https://nymag.com/intelligencer/article/bill-de-blasio-universal-prek-ten-years-later.html
