It's been a wonderful experience sending my foster son here! It's abundantly clear that his teachers know him and his quirks and love him like their own. He is only three months but they keep him very busy with activities and interactions. I was nervous to send him to daycare, but knowing he goes to see the same team of loving teachers each day helps. They are also wonderful about keeping me updated on his eating, napping, and potty schedule and sending me lots of photos throughout the day!

Our Learning Programs

My son started at New Horizon Academy Plymouth this fall and we couldn't be happier with our experience. They have great academic offerings with so many fun added themes and activities. We also love that there is lots of diversity among their staff! My son has severe food allergies and they've been wonderful with that process, making sure we feel comfortable with their internal processes for food allergies. We were so hesitant to send out youngest to a daycare center but I would send my kids to NHA on County Road 6 over and over. They are doing great things for kids!
