Meet Our Overland Park School Director

BIO

I love working in an environment where I can make a difference in someone’s life, whether it helps now or is something that helps them later in life. I enjoy learning new skills and striving to achieve new accomplishments because,  just four years ago, there were many things I couldn’t do. Now that I can, I never want to miss an opportunity to try something new. I love that my team is always ready to help wherever needed, knowing I would never ask them to do something I wouldn’t do myself. One fun fact about me is that I used to clown in college, and now I’m the one who wears all the random costumes for different events!

Education – Southwestern Assemblies of God University, Baker University

Years of Early Childhood Education Experience: 10+

What do you like about early childhood?

I love watching the process children go through as they learn new skills. It is amazing to watch them not only accomplish that skill but also be able to role model it for their peers.

What makes your school unique?

Our school feels like one big family, where everyone is always willing to step in and assist wherever the need is greatest for the day. The teachers know all the children and at least on unique fact about each of them.

They create a nurturing environment where children are not only cared for but also encouraged to learn and explore. The facility is always clean, safe, and well-organized, with plenty of engaging activities to keep the kids entertained and learning.

— Neha R., New Horizon Academy Overland Park parent

Our daughter has been attending New Horizon Academy Overland Park since it opened, and we love it here! The facility is always clean and well-organized, with a variety of engaging activities to keep the kids entertained and learning. They have numerous outdoor and indoor play areas as well, allowing the kids to change environments throughout the day. Communication is great; they provide updates and pictures all day, so as a parent, you don’t feel like you’re missing a thing! I also appreciate that they work with us on coordinating care regarding developmental milestones. I’ve recommended this daycare to multiple families!

— Abby G., New Horizon Academy Overland Park parent

We love New Horizon Academy and so does our little boy! Every day as we are pulling into the parking lot, he says, “I love my school!”. The facility is beautiful and clean, and the staff is caring and well-trained. We had a bad experience at our last daycare so I had my guard up, but New Horizon Academy has restored my faith in safe and caring daycares! We couldn’t be more pleased with our experience.

— Gabriel C., New Horizon Academy Overland Park parent

Amazing childcare center!  All staff are caring, knowledgeable, and supportive. My daughter has been going to the Overland Park location since it opened and we could not be any happier. Her teacher cares about her wellbeing, and I love how they use Conscious Discipline in the classroom with the children. You should definitely send your children here.

— Megan B., New Horizon Academy Overland Park parent
