As a father of twin boys, I was always skeptical of daycares. My fiancé and I decided to take a chance on New Horizon Academy, and it’s been the best decision we’ve ever made for our kids. They’ve provided the best care for infants, toddlers, and beyond and are always attentive, especially when it comes to kids’ fun and safety. My boys have the best time here and the staff is like a second family. My kids will continue to go here until they are ready to move on to kindergarten!
