About Us
PHILOSOPHY AND GUIDING PRINCPLES
Our Philosophy We believe… • That children are precious and must receive care from adults who are capable and caring--whose values enable them to be excellent role models. • That children should experience numerous positive learning milestones, leading to an increased sense of competence and independence. • That children's play is extremely vital to healthy physical development, acceptable social skills, and cognitive growth. • That educators, drawing upon their training and experience, must create an appropriate educational environment that carefully guides children from one developmental level to another. • That parents contribute to, and enhance the quality of care offered at New Horizons Child Care
WE OFFER FIRST-RATE CHILDCARE
We are delighted that you have chosen to seek information on our new child care that is willing to provide for the needs of your child. You and your family are encouraged to visit our child care during our open house and before the first day of enrollment to give our educators, and your child, an opportunity to meet and become better acquainted. It will make separating on the first day a bit easier.
OUR MISSION
At New Horizons Child Care, we believe in the value and uniqueness of each child we serve. Our experience is designed to promote each child’s own individual social, emotional, physical, and cognitive development. We pride our child care’s focus on the individual needs of each child while providing quality, reliable and safe child care, our mission is to provide a safe and developmentally appropriate learning environment, which fosters a child’s natural desire to explore, discover, create, and become a lifelong learner, while meeting the needs of each child and family in a safe, educational environment.
