The Goddard School is incredible. Incredible staff, impressive curriculum, optimal systems, and wonderful extras like special holiday events, photography, book exchanges etc. just because they care. Thanks Goddard!

Infant Classroom

Head Teachers and front desk staff are great. Kids seem to be learning and getting smarter every week. Lots of activities throughout the day, lots of structure. Detailed reports at the end of each day.

Henry & Thomas's Father

Preschool Classroom

Ever since my son started attending Goddard he’s been much more talkative and has learned throngs I didn’t even know he could learn at his age. There’s always something planned at the school and I love how everything is broken down in the daily report so I can see not only what he did throughout the day, but also what was being worked on during those activities like fine motor skills or sharing with friends. It’s a great school and I would recommend it to anyone with kids.

Carter's Mother

Everything. The people, curriculum, etc. They have nurtured our son over the last (almost 4 years) and we are forever grateful. I cannot recommend them enough.

As a parent of a student at Goddard School I love the communication the Goddard School has with my wife and I. We feel constantly in contact with the school about what is going on with with our son with pictures and reports and events that are going on. Safety and development are clearly top priorities with the Goddard School and the staff clearly show the high standards at Goddard School.

Oliver's Father

Junior-K Classroom

They are so hands on and caring about not only the children but the families as a whole. They welcome my daughter and I with bright smiles every morning. I recently had her at another daycare before switching her to Goddard and the difference is immense.

Nina's Mother

Preschool Classroom

It has all the things we want from a school - clean, safe, great communication, and engaged teachers! They go out of there way to set up special events and don’t charge for things that feel like add-ons - yoga, Spanish, etc. We love Goddard Sunnyside!

Kayla & Isla's Mother

The Goddard School Clackamas is fantastic. The teachers are warm, engaged and love the kids. I’ve always loved that every teacher/staff member knows my kids, not just their teachers. And my kids love being there. I have always felt completely comfortable and satisfied with my choice in childcare at Goddard.

Ava & Dylan's Mother

Toddler Classroom

The school is super clean and filled with friendly staff and teachers. Everyone is super patient with our daughter, and I know it's the school, their structure, and their teachers that have greatly contributed to my daughter's growth and development. Our daughter goes to kindergarten in the fall, and I'm so sad to leave The Goddard School.

Olivia's Mother

Pre-K Classroom

My husband and I are absolutely amazed at how our son has blossomed in his Pre K class. With the help from his wonderful teacher and great administrative class, he has become more social and involved than he ever had before. The school is clean, the envornment is spetacular and the school is very well organized. We appreciate each and every one of the staff members and are so happy we made the choice to have our little man be a part of The Goddard School.

Nicholas's Mother

Preschool Classroom

I like teachers- they're really nice and kind. I like the people at front desk, they are always friendly and supportive. I like the way they serve food so my kids don't have to eat cold lunch everyday. I also like their creative programs, kids learn different things everyday which make their daily schedule fun and cool. I'm so thankful to send my kids to Goddard who makes me feel secure and comfort at work because I know my kids are taken care of very well. Thank you!

Aarav & Arjun's Mother

Preschool Classroom

Everyone is very friendly and I feel the staff has been held to high standards in terms of training and how to educate the children. We transferred from a center that was truley just daycare - and the difference we have seen in our sons speech and development is night and day.

Jaden's Mother

Toddler Classroom

Our child has learned so much at the school in just over a year of attendance. Without all of the structured learning, activities, art, etc., we don't feel he would be as capable and independent as he is now. Thank you!

Walt's Mother

Toddler Classroom

I appreciate the communication that the school has with parents and children. It's a patient atmosphere where my daughter can grow and learn. The creativity in the curriculum is insane! So many things I wouldn't think to do that really help her to learn.
