Our Story
Our Founder, Sharnise Horn, knew that her life would involve enriching the lives of children and families from as long ago as she can remember. With over 15 years of diverse work experience in preschools, the public school system, social services, nutrition education, serving as a Board of Director to promote the healthy development of children and families, and being a Mom to her own children. Her love and passion for children and nutrition were the blueprint to the establishment of The Horn FitKidz Program.
Sharnise’s love for nutrition began after marrying her high school sweetheart 14 years ago in 2011. They started cooking healthy recipes together and she noticed several benefits of having a healthier lifestyle. In 2014, she became a mom and that instilled an even greater love for nutrition. She learned through various resources about cooking healthy meals for her family, snacks, feeding, and many other things to help raise her kids to eat in a balanced way.
Sharnise founded Horn FitKidz in 2021 with a passion to help children get an early start in life being healthy and obtaining the positive short and long-term benefits associated with it. During her four years of being a stay-at-home mom to her three children, she has learned so much about childhood nutrition. From creating and cooking nutritious meals for her family to keeping them physically active, she is excited to learn even more while sharing her knowledge with other families.
As a wife, mother of three children, lover of God, date nights with her husband, Just Dance games with her children, and her love for the beach and outdoors, she is thankful and delighted to continue following her passion to help children and families through her interactive, fun, and unique enrichment program.
