Our Learning Programs

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!

— Chelsea T., New Horizon Academy Plymouth parent

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!

— Dena S., New Horizon Academy Plymouth parent

I cannot praise the team at this location enough. It is apparent how much the teachers and staff love and support my kids and are invested in their growth. My daughter genuinely looks forward to coming every day and spending time with some of her besties (the staff). It fills me with such ease dropping them off at a place that I trust so much. I would never hesitate to recommend this location to anyone. I hope all of the teachers and staff know how much they are appreciated by me and my family!

— Madeline W., New Horizon Academy Plymouth parent

This place is amazing with our 2 kids. The amount of knowledge our 2 1/2 year old has is incredible. She looks forward to going to school each day and all of the teachers are great. Every teacher in the building knows each child’s name even if they haven’t had them in class. It’s easy to drop the kids off each day knowing they are so well cared for and knowing they are learning so much to help with their future.

— Mike W., New Horizon Academy Plymouth parent
