We absolutely love New Horizon Academy! Everyone is extremely knowledgeable, professional, and caring. The teachers are very personable and truly care about your kids. I would recommend New Horizon Academy to anyone looking for quality childcare in a clean, fun, and educational environment.
The teachers at New Horizon Academy Boise are amazing! They treat our son like family, and he looks forward to going to school every day! They’re incredibly communicative, and we appreciate knowing exactly what’s happening throughout the day.
Our family loves this school! Our toddler enjoys the teachers, and the front office staff have been a big help. We are looking forward to sending our next kiddos there as well! The curriculum is age-appropriate and is helping our kiddo enjoy learning while setting them up for success in school in the future.
There’s such a wonderful team at New Horizon Academy Emerald! We enrolled our son at 12 months, where he joined the 1-year-old class. In just a few months, we have noticed substantial growth in his expressive and receptive language, sociability, and overall independence. We would recommend New Horizon Academy to any family looking for a daycare that checks all the boxes.
