My child attended New Horizon Academy – Cascade Creek for 5 years. As an infant, he was in a safe, clean, and attentive environment that was very responsive to any of my concerns. The communication was excellent, and I enjoyed receiving updates throughout the day. As we moved through the toddler age and on to preschool, a creative curriculum was introduced that was extremely enriching. Our son is now well-prepared for kindergarten. The leadership and teaching staff in Rochester are enthusiastic, child-centered, and most of all, happy people. When I had to go to work, my mind was at peace knowing my son was being so well cared for at daycare.
