## Resource

New Horizon Academy is launching four new childcare centers across Omaha this year, creating over 300 new spots to combat a critical shortage—especially in south Elkhorn, with more opening in Plattsmouth, Crete, and York by October. With Omaha needing 1,500 more slots, the company’s unique approach—specialized infant care, character-focused curricula, safe crawl spaces, and family-like atmospheres—aims to redefine quality childcare. Led by CEO Brenda Smith, who’s been in the business since 2016, New Horizon prioritizes staff development and active engagement, offering more than supervision to build strong foundations for kids and families alike.
