New Horizon Academy made it so easy for me to feel safe leaving my 6-week-old full-time at daycare. Now, 5 years later as a mom of 3 boys, this daycare center has become like family. It’s amazing to be able to have the same teachers over the years caring for my children! I will forever recommend the Champlin New Horizon Academy.
