“We have been so pleased with The Goddard School in Dublin. Since enrolling our two year old daughter in the Fall of 2010, we have seen such growth in her. Her speech has flourished and she has come so far with really nailing down the basics of colors, patterns, art, numbers, coordination and motor skills. We previously had her in home care and I felt like she wasn't being challenged enough since there is no curriculum in that type of setting. So, we decided to begin visiting schools in the area. We didn't find any schools that fit us until we found The Goddard School and met Laura and the staff. We knew immediately that this was the choice for us. Family and friends have commented on the obvious growth and maturity of our daughter. They could not believe the differences in advanced skill set and language. She already knew numbers, colors and shapes going into school, but now she knows them in English, Spanish and Sign Language. She can't wait to go to school and learn!” ~ Leah's Mom
“Our family has a long, wonderful history at The Goddard school. My son, who is now eleven, started when he was six months old and my eight year old daughter started when she was twelve weeks old. They attended the program throughout elementary school, as they have gone to summer ‘camp’ for quite a few years now. As a working mom, my top priority is my children's care when I can't be there with them. I can definitely say that I feel so blessed to have had my children attend Goddard. I know that when they are there, they are safe and well cared for. To be able to have the sense of peace while I am at work, to me, is priceless. I can truly say that attending Goddard in their early years has really made their elementary school experience so successful. They were well prepared for kindergarten with the curriculum they were taught throughout their years at Goddard. The staff is friendly and well trained. We have had such great experiences with the amazing teachers and staff. My children have been so happy at Goddard and have such great memories of the time they have spent there.” ~ Jacob & Sarah's Mom
“Our time with The Goddard School was amazing. The facility, the curriculum, the interaction and the environment were supportive for both us and our son. The facility is very secure, which removed one parental worry. The staff was very friendly. It was easy to trust our son's care to the entire staff at Goddard. The curriculum was fun for our son and fun for us. We would get to hear all about the weekly theme for learning. To hear the excitement in our son's voice was very reassuring. They have a great communication system in place. We were notified with daily reports, monthly event and theme calendars in addition to the conversational interactions with all of the teachers and staff. Our son grew excited for school, so the morning drop-off became easy. Evening pick-up was a different story; only because it was difficult to convince our son to come home with us and leave his friends on the Goddard playground. It was truly an amazing time and we are thankful to have had the Goddard experience.” ~ JC & BC
“You know you found great childcare when:
- Your kids ask you to pick them up as late as possible
- Your kids cry when you arrive to get them and you tell them it's time to leave
- You feel like the staff treat your children like their own
- Your kids have fun with the staff and show them respect
- You feel 100% confident that your children will be in a safe, fun environment when they are there
- The owner and management make you feel welcome and are visible to the parents
I have felt this way about The Goddard School in Dublin ever since we moved to the area seven years ago. I wish they offered teenager care so I could keep the relationship going as my kids get older.” ~ Ben & Josh's Mom
