My child has gone to this center since he was 16 months old, and our families experience has been…read moreextremely positive. As a single parent, New Horizon has been so understanding and compassionate to us during difficult times. They have always taken the extra minutes to speak with me about questions or concerns, and always approached me with my child's best interest at heart. They are committed to continually improving on their curriculum and employing qualified teachers and staff. This center gives me security in knowing my child is safe, happy, and learning while I am at work, for which I am truly grateful!

New horizon generally does not care about your child (ren). They are all about their policies which…read morebasically is a boat load of crap. I have noticed a lot of double standards with the families and they are very quick to put labels on kids, especially those that actually make them do what they're supposed to do, work. I would not recommend them to any working parent because they have no structure whatsoever.

We do NOT use worksheets, or do any screen time. We believe in anti-bully, and multicultural lessons where the children learn to accept everyone as who they are. We do processed art instead of product. The children explore with multiple art tools (or toothbrushes, cars, feathers) to paint with. The teachers don't make a project and then tell the children how to make it. We let the children use their imaginations. The children are kindergarten ready after learning many literacy, math and science skills through play.

On top of that, she provides delicious, home-cooked lunches! Tina genuinely cares for every child in her care. We feel so lucky to have had her in our son's life.

We completed Kindergarten round-up and they were so impressed by how much my son knew already. They wanted to know where we send our son so they could even make recommendations to her! She is extremely reliable, only needing 1 sick day in the 3.5 years we have been with her! Her vacation times are very clear in the contract and she always gives multiple reminders well ahead of time. She is a gem and worth EVERY penny! *It keeps saying my location is in California, but this is incorrect. I am from St. Cloud, MN!*
