What do you like about early childhood?

The teachers and staff are WONDERFUL! They are so kind and welcoming the second you walk in. There is honestly no other daycare I would take my son to. He looks forward to learning new things and playing with his friends every day. Thank you, New Horizon Academy, for being such wonderful caregivers!
I’ve had my children at the Burnsville New Horizon Academy for the last three years and have always completely trusted them to take care of my kids. Since we first enrolled, we’ve moved further away with plenty of daycares closer to us, but I 100% choose to make the extra drive because of how much I trust them to not only care for my kids but also teach them so much.
We’ve been sending our son to New Horizon Academy for a year now. The staff is responsive and kind. If we ever had a question, they’ve been a great resource to get answers. They have fair policy to have you get the most out of your daycare experience while emphasizing safety. Communication has been paramount for the staff there; we receive daily updates of our son’s activities, photos, instant messages, and email updates from the staff. We have had a great experience here and our son enjoys seeing his teachers everyday.
I have had a child at New Horizon Academy in Burnsville for the last 8 years. It has been a place where my children feel safe, loved, and supported as they grow. I’ve loved the small center because I get to know all the teachers, meet my children’s classmates and their families at drop-off and pick-up, and feel confident that my children are getting the attention they need. My children have been well prepared for kindergarten.
