Moving our son to New Horizon is the best decision ever made. The director, Anita, is an exceptional leader and such a genuinely compassionate person. Molly is enthusiastically dedicated to the children’s well-being, and never hesitates to help out….and the other staff and teachers are wonderful, organized, and have helped our son thrive! He has been there from a toddler….. and has grown into such a joyful, well rounded child, who looks forward to going to this daycare. I highly recommend this daycare, as they try their best in helping our kids grow positively emotionally, socially, responsibly, academically.

I absolutely LOVE New Horizon Academy and my two boys love it too! I highly recommend New Horizon for all ages. From the infant room and beyond, the teachers and staff are exceptional. I am always greeted with a genuine smile, and the communication/updates throughout the day are amazing! I love getting pictures, seeing what my boys ate and how much, when they nap, and what crafts/activities they are doing. The team at this location is second to none. Thank you for all you do!!!

This is truly an awesome place to bring your child for care. The teachers absolutely love the kids and take such good care of them. We loved all of our child’s teachers that she had in both infant rooms and we felt at ease dropping her off each day. The staff communicate very well throughout the day and the app the center uses is great for knowing how your child’s day is going. We were so sad to have to leave new horizon when we moved out of the area. We will miss it so much.

We started with New Horizon Nov 2020 with our then three month old. What a great experience it has been! As a new mom I had many worries and anxieties, and in the setting of COVID it was very hard for me to not be able to go in to the room, see the teachers, and have a dialogue about our baby and how the progress was at daycare. The center did a phenomenal job adjusting to Covid and communication was exceptional given the circumstances. Everyone was quick to respond if I had concerns or questions, they provided me with lots of pictures and reassurance. Two teachers in particular have really stepped in to help me and my baby adjust, Miss Patricia and Miss Rosemary. Both clearly have so much experience in child care, and mommy care :). Our baby was not the best baller at daycare and we struggled with some cranky overtired nights, and I noticed that Miss Patricia and Miss Rosemary really stepped in to help him adjust and get into some consistency and routine. It meant a lot to me that in their busy busy days they made the effort to help my baby with some struggles.So happy with our choice with New Horizon! Thank you!!!

Close your eyes with me for a moment and imagine, a single Mother of two beautiful little girls trying, shuffling through her limited support of family members to care for them while she tries to maintain her fulltime job. Open your eyes. I am her. I was on the verge of quitting my job because I knew I wouldn’t be able to afford the copay that I was entitled to pay for childcare. Then Anita the Director told me to fill out an application that changed mine and my girls life. She didn’t know if I would be awarded but she brought forth the resources for me to get help. Not only was my worries eased at the cost of pay, but both of my girls had qualified and was granted a scholarship through New Horizon Academy. New Horizon has been a knight in shining armor for my Girls and I. The center is literally always open excluding holidays, the staff are so helpful and patient with my children, not to mention my 3 years old has come out of her shell and is so much more talkative and aware of things( Smile), but most importantly, this center is ran by AMAZING leaders who engages and goes above and beyond the expectations for the children and their families. They mold their employees to be patient, charismatic, and loving, this is such a necessity when working with other people’s children. My girls and I love New Horizon Academy, and I can truly say as a single mother, they have been my greatest supporters. We have found the staff here at New Horizon to be a part of our family and are forever grateful for each and every one of them .

I cannot say enough good things about the Academy. The cleanliness of the entire facility to the food options to the caring teachers, it is well worth every penny sending your child here. We have zero concerns when dropping our son off at the Academy and know that he will receive the attention, affection, and education necessary to grow as a child. The entire front office knows your childs name and can quickly identity the parents to their child. The teachers truly care about the children and their progression. I cannot think of a single negative from our time at NHA.

My son is going to New Horizon for 4 months now and he absolutely loves it. My husband and I are extremely pleased with his development. He learns a lot having fun which is very important for us. Kids are suppose to be kids and learn by playing and having fun, then they will grow up interested in learning. The food they serve there is very healthy and smells delicious (sometimes I am tempted to stay and eat breakfast with them) and everybody is so nice and caring with my little one that I do not have words to express my appreciation for everybody there! We highly recommend New Horizon to all parents!

I seriously cannot say enough about New Horizon Academy! Their staff are absolutely amazing. At other daycares we always we called for everything, and made to feel it was nuisance that our son was not a baller despite every beat effort. We walked in to new horizon about 5 months ago and never looked back. My son is consistently encouraged to grow and learn. He is interacted with and loves his teachers! We walk in the door and he is kicking his chunky thighs around! He lights up seeing his teachers and I wouldn’t want it any other way. They have made a huge difference in our lives and truly believe they are the best daycare around.

In general, I have been very happy with our choice to put our kids at NHA. Really, the only downside is the price. Yearly there is a tuition increase without much seen as to what the extra money actually goes to. Whats more frustrating is there doesnt seem to be a cap on tuition prices and I worry what prices would be for new students in 5-10 years from now. Otherwise, staff is very friendly and helpful. Turnover does seem high occasionally, but this can be unavoidable.

Recently went and took A tour of New Horizon Academy this place is absolutely filthy upon walking in the door and seeing the filth I should’ve left immediately. The classrooms were overflowing with children lacking adequate supervision . The director giving the tour knew very little and had no information on actual curriculum used in the classrooms . This place is nothing more than a overpriced low end day care center. It is so sad that there is such a child care shortage that people actually resort to sending their children to this filthy daycare center.

I highly recommend this center. I have two children at this center and have been very pleased with it. I feel that my children are in a great learning environment that is safe and clean. The curriculum at all age levels has benefited our children greatly. The Pre-school program as well as the Pre-Kindergarten program has impressed us as parents. We are very pleased with the growth and development of our children. The staff at NHA has always been pleasant and accommodating. My only critique is that there have been times that no staff member is at the front desk area. I feel that it would be beneficial to have someone there at the busy pick up and drop off times.
