Awards and Accolades
As I was growing up, I admired the passion my mom brought to her work with children with special needs. She made a meaningful difference in their lives, and I was inspired to make the same kind of impact. After graduating, I began substituting at the school where she worked, supporting children with special needs while continuing my own education. I earned my associate’s degree in Early Childhood Education and never looked back. I have now worked in early childhood for over 27 years, and have served as a director for more than 10.

Hello, my name is Samantha! I have worked in childcare for over 8 years and went to Morgan Community College for Early Childhood Education. When I first started in this field, I knew this was my career. I love working with children, and it brings me joy to build relationships with them, as well as with parents and staff. I strive to make families feel at home and to ensure their little ones are safe and loved. I am so blessed to have two of my own, Allison and Rowan. They keep me on my feet, and I love watching them grown into their silly, fun, and rambunctious personalities.

I cannot recommend this daycare establishment for your child enough! Our son has been in the infant classroom and I’m so thrilled to say that as a new mom with so many fears, I have no fears about leaving him with this wonderful group. It really does feel like family there and I am so impressed with all of the amazing activities my son has been exposed to. I can tell through the multitude of pictures and attention to detail in his well-being that they really care about him as an individual and us as a family. You’ll be glad you chose New Horizon Academy, where your children are cared for in a safe, well-run daycare that goes the extra mile to enrich their lives.
I had been looking for the best childcare for over 3 months all around Castle Rock, Highlands Ranch, Parker, and Lone Tree when I finally found New Horizon Academy. When I first walked in, it wasn’t even open yet, but I could tell it was best out of all the centers I visited. Since the first day, my son has loved it and I’ve been impressed with the great staff as well as all the toys for children’s development. Overall, I love this center and recommend it to everyone.
I cannot thank New Horizon Academy Parker enough for all of the love and care that they provide to my daughter each and every day. I am confident that all the students are safe when they are at this school. The teachers here are positive, kind professionals who are trained in early childhood development and provide quality curriculum and instruction, along with guidance and support in helping students reach their developmental milestones. I love that they spend a significant amount of time outside as well! Additionally, the menu of foods that is offered is healthy, varied, and encourages kids to try new foods.
New Horizon Academy Parker is a very special place. We fully trust the care our child receives and the standards the facility has. It truly is like a family there and the teachers are exceptional. We’ve had an incredible experience here and are excited to continue to see our child thrive.
