I feel so lucky to have my son attend childcare here. It’s the best decision I have ever made. He is learning so much and bringing that knowledge back into our home. He has grown more in the month he’s been at New Horizon Academy than he did in the past year with his previous daycare.

— Donna H., Parent at New Horizon Academy, Minneapolis Downtown East

The staff are incredibly caring and loving, always ensuring the school is spotless. It’s comforting to see the same dedicated people every day, always coming in with a great attitude. The curriculum offers a variety of activities, including arts and crafts, story time, outdoor play, and interactive learning sessions. These activities promote social skills, teamwork, and individual growth. We highly recommend New Horizon Academy!

My daughter has been here since she was 6 weeks old, and she is now a year and a half. The staff have been nothing but amazing. My daughter jumps out of my arms when she sees her classroom teachers. They are amazing!

I love the director and teachers! Every single person at New Horizon Academy is warm and caring. We are so grateful to have our son in their care. He loves his teachers!

We love the nurturing care our children receive at New Horizon Academy. They are always taken care of and greeted with open arms. My son loves that he can play and learn outside.

— Alicia C., Parent at New Horizon Academy, Minneapolis Penn Ave

I cannot express enough how grateful my family is to have found this childcare center. They go above and beyond to ensure that my children are well taken care of, both physically and emotionally. They understand the individual needs of each child and create a space where they can grow, learn, and thrive. As a parent, there is nothing more comforting than knowing that my children are being cared for in such a loving and safe environment.

— Joseph P., Parent at New Horizon Academy, Minneapolis Uptown

An investment in a New Horizon Academy education is an investment in your child’s future. Families trust New Horizon Academy to set their children up for success. Here are a few reasons why:

1. Family Owned & Operated

From a single preschool classroom in 1971 to 100 schools today, much has changed for New Horizon Academy, but our commitment to children, families, teachers, and our communities remains the same.

2. Award-Winning Care

One hundred percent of our eligible schools are accredited by NAEYC, the gold standard in early childhood accreditation. This is an accomplishment no other childcare provider of our size has achieved.

We hire teachers with experience, give them the training and support they need to succeed, pay them above market average, and help them achieve their goals. This results in stable, consistent care for your child.
