I’m very happy with Horizon Daycare! My children absolutely love going there and are always happy and excited to go to daycare. The teachers are wonderful, caring, and very attentive to the children. The daycare administration is also very kind, helpful, and cooperative.
I can truly see a positive change in my children’s behavior since they started attending Horizon. They are learning, growing, and becoming more social and confident. I really appreciate how much the teachers and staff care about the children and treat them with love and patience.
I highly recommend Horizon Daycare to any parent looking for a safe, caring, and welcoming place for their children. We are very happy with our experience!

Our baby is well taken care of in this daycare. At the beginning it was tough for us parents to leave her in daycare but they made it easier for us. We feel like we are leaving her with family the love she receives is unconditional . The director addresses any concerns we had and we appreciate that. Communication is very important and they keep us informed on how the day is going for our child. The pictures they send gives us peace of mind. Thank you for taking such good care of our baby may Allah bless you and all the teachers. Mrs Ana Mrs Malak Mrs Nors thank you for your passion to take very well care of our baby.

We absolutely love this daycare! ❤️ My oldest son has been attending since he was just 6 months old in 2020, and now he is already in first grade. We have truly watched him grow and learn throughout the years, and we couldn’t be happier with the care he received.
Even during COVID, we were so impressed with the protocols they had in place to keep the children safe. The staff has always been so loving, caring, friendly, and welcoming. My son had an amazing graduation from the daycare, which was such a special and emotional moment for us as parents. 🥹❤️
My younger son, Alec, has been attending since last year, and the staff has been amazing with him as well. He has learned SO much, and he is always so happy and excited to go. He calls it “school,” and it makes us so happy to see how much he loves going every day! 🥰 He is constantly learning new things and growing, and we couldn’t ask for a better environment for him.
I also want to give a special thank you to Mrs. Shahama, the director. She is always so kind, welcoming, and involved. You can truly tell that she cares about the children, the families, and her staff. Having a director who is approachable, understanding, and genuinely invested in the children makes such a difference. ❤️
After having both of our boys here, we can honestly say this daycare feels like family. As parents, knowing that our children are loved, cared for, safe, and learning every day means everything to us. We are so grateful for all the teachers and staff and would absolutely recommend this daycare to any family looking for a loving and nurturing place for their children! ❤️

My daughter is 9 months old, and I honestly couldn’t be happier with this daycare. Ever since she started, she has been so happy and has learned so much. I can really see a difference in her!
The ladies who take care of her are so caring, attentive, and understanding. She is my first baby, so I was really nervous and scared leaving her at daycare while I worked, but they have made me feel so comfortable and reassured. Now I get so happy seeing how excited she gets when she knows she’s going to daycare. 🥹❤️
She even has a little friend who is 10 months old, and it is so perfect for her! I love receiving pictures of them playing together and seeing how much fun she is having. 🥰
The daycare is also very clean and hygienic. I especially appreciate that only babies and authorized people are allowed in the infant room to help keep the environment clean and safe.
The director is also super nice and always answers my messages. I really appreciate how responsive and understanding she is, especially as a first-time mom. Everyone there has been so welcoming and caring.
I truly feel like this daycare is so worth it. I’m so happy I chose this place for my daughter.

Horizon Child Care and Learning Center is truly the best place you can choose for your child. My daughter has been here since she was a baby in the Infant room, and now she’s in Preschool, getting ready to graduate next year.
Our experience has been absolutely wonderful. The food is excellent, always fresh and prepared right there at the center. It gives me great peace of mind knowing exactly what ingredients are being used and that my daughter is getting healthy, homemade meals every day.
The teachers are amazing, kind, patient, and truly dedicated. The director does an outstanding job caring for the children and making sure every detail is taken care of.
What I love most is the family-like environment. The children are treated with love and respect, and parents can easily keep track of their child’s daily activities.
I’m so happy and grateful for everything Horizon Child Care has done for my daughter’s growth and well-being. If you’re looking for a place where your child will feel loved, safe, and well cared for, this is the perfect place.

I cannot say enough about how amazing Horizons is. Four of my six children have attended this school. My oldest son was there when they first started the food program, and the variety of healthy meals helped shape his eating habits, which he still carries into adulthood. My youngest just graduated from Horizons and is now in kindergarten. Every day, he asks if he can go back to eat lunch with Mrs. Shahama because her food is his favorite and he says he does not like the food at his new school. Honestly, I wish Mrs. Shahama would create a cookbook for parents once the children graduate so we can continue making the meals our children have grown to love at home.
Mrs. Mouna also played a huge role in preparing him for kindergarten. She helped make sure he was academically ready and even practiced with him for his kindergarten assessment so he felt confident starting at a new school. Recently, I unexpectedly took in an infant, and once again, Horizons went above and beyond. Over the weekend, Mrs. Shahama prepared her staff and made sure everything was ready so I could drop the baby off on Monday morning and start my new job knowing my child was in good hands. Her team even helped the baby learn to eat solid foods and get on a regular sleep schedule. They also provided baby clothes, formula, diapers, and other essentials, which meant so much since my older children are past that stage.
I am so grateful for this incredibly caring team. They are more than caregivers. They are like family, and they treat every child as if they were their own.

I’m extremely happy with my daughter’s experience at Horizons. From the very first day, I was impressed by the love, dedication, and genuine care the teachers show toward every child. You can truly tell that they enjoy what they do and that each child is special to them. My daughter has been at the school since the Infant room and has gone through every classroom. At every stage, absolutely every teacher has been amazing — loving, patient, and attentive to every detail. It’s clear that the entire team shares a real passion for education and for the well-being of the children. I also want to highlight the director. She is someone you can always talk to openly. She takes the time to explain everything clearly, answers every question with patience and professionalism, and always addresses any concern with the right attitude and empathy. She always has kind and thoughtful words for parents, which I truly appreciate. The environment at the daycare is warm, positive, and full of love. The daily schedule is very well organized, with a perfect balance of learning, play, art, and music. The curriculum helps children grow and develop in all areas while still having fun every day. Another thing I really love is the food — it’s healthy, well-balanced, and freshly prepared right there at the school. That gives me so much peace of mind. The parent app is also wonderful! Through the app, I can see photos, updates, and daily notes about my daughter’s activities, which helps me feel very connected to her day. In short, I completely recommend Horizons . It’s a place where children feel loved, safe, and happy — and where parents can have complete trust and peace of mind.

My child has been at Horizon for almost a year now, and overall, it's a great school and daycare. The teachers are very caring and actively keep us informed about anything that happens with my child. They also give us suggestions on what we can do at home to support our child's development, which is really helpful for new parents like me.
My child is always happy to go to Horizon and seems comfortable with the teachers. The teachers are always friendly, to my child or to the parents, and I love that they all remember my child's name. The school environment also always looks clean, safe, and healthy.
