Philadelphia (Spring Garden) Reviews & Recognition

The love and commitment of our Goddard families inspires us every day. To help make each child’s learning experiences the best they can be, we are always happy to listen when parents share their expectations. Here’s what our families have to say.

  • Very good community and top notch care....

    Nirvan's Mother

    Preschool Classroom

  • The teachers, director, and owners always welcome me and my son with a smile. The transitions from teacher to teacher are seemless. My son has grown with his speech, expressing himself greatly, sharing details from stories and events and counting. He's exposed to different topics each week and creates fun hands-on projects to go with it. I enjoyed getting to know other moms at the Muffins with Moms event for Mother's Day. Looking forward to more family events!

    Keniel & Amoya's Mother

    Preschool Classroom

  • The hours are great for working parents and the days off are minimal compared to other schools. Goddard provides the most annual coverage of any program we reviewed - but that is not something parents always consider until they've already joined a daycare! Oh, and the parents night out is just the most thoughtful thing ever - and greatly appreciated.

    Arlo's Mother

    Toddler Classroom

  • Facilities; teachers; management

    Josephine's Father

    Preschool Classroom

  • Goddard is a nurturing, professional environment. My kids want to go to school everyday.

    Harry & Malcom's Father

    Toddler Classroom

  • We have been at Goddard for about a month now, and we love it. Our son, who was formerly home with me (mom) everyday, acclimated quite quickly and to my surprise. Now, he loves the school, his teachers, and his classmates, and is excited to go to school on Tuesdays and Thursdays!

    Roman's Mother

    Toddler Classroom

  • The entire staff is very friendly and polite. The Kids love the teachers. The place is very clean.

    John's Mother

    Infant Classroom

  • The staff are extremely hands-on, accommodating, and just overall very sweet individuals. I am so pleased by my son's experience at the Spring Garden Goddard location. Ms. Cassie is always ready to say "yes", talk whenever I call or stop by, and help me with any extra task. I feel comfortable and at ease with my son attending Goddard. He comes home with stories and such excitement every afternoon. I can't recommend it enough.

    Jerry's Mother

    Toddler Classroom

  • I've been satisfied with our experience at The Goddard School

    Lucia 's Mother

    Infant Classroom

  • The teachers and admin staff are all amazing. Everyone is so knowledgeable and I find myself learning many things from them that I use to be a better parent to our child. This is especially appreciated because we don't live close to family, and Goddard has been invaluable as a source of guidance in our lives.

    Arlo's Mother

    Toddler Classroom

  • Very competent administrators who handle the paperwork really well and manage to still be super friendly and available and welcoming to the kids. The school has excellent equipment. The days are really well structured with a good balance of silly play and more structured activities.

    Ella & Harvey's Father

    Preschool Classroom

  • Clean, organized, the teachers care about my son, they are great! I also love the activities and how well planned they are every month. Love to have the calendar and know the activities planned for the kids, so I know what they are learning.

    Noah's Mother

    Preschool Classroom

  • All the teachers and faculty take care of Claire so well. Facilities are great and we always get lots of picture updates. Can’t speak highly enough about the Goddard team at Spring Garden and highly recommend to anyone.

    Claire's Father

    Toddler Classroom

  • We have loved each of the teachers that has taught our son. He has been going to Goddard Spring Garden since he was six months old, and we truly feel that he is well cared for and loved when he is at school.

    John Jack's Mother

    Toddler Classroom

  • Teachers

    Vienna's Mother

    Toddler Classroom

  • The entire staff has been so incredibly patient with my oldest starting school for the first time. He went many weeks with tears at drop off, but I always felt comfortable leaving because I would see how teachers/any staff was willing to step in and respond appropriately. And I must add that he is always very happy at pick up - ready to talk about the great day he had and always references his teachers!

    Jerry's Mother

    Toddler Classroom

  • The teachers and staff are wonderful, very knowledgeable and put their heart into their work. We appreciate the communication and updates throughout the day. Our kid's smile at the end of the day says it all. Thank you!

    Benjamin's Father

    Toddler Classroom

  • We loved Goddard! Everyone at the school is so friendly and caring, and it’s clear from both our daughter’s excitement at drop-off every day and the daily reports and photos that she is getting a wonderful education and experience. And at such a young age! We never envisioned a 6-month-old painting or doing splash day or anything like that. But we are so happy about it all and she is too. We can’t say enough positive things about The Goddard School!

    Matilda (Millie)'s Father

  • We recommend the school to everyone who asks for daycare options. We’ve been so happy with how well our son has taken to Goddard and how much he’s learned. The teachers and staff have become a part of the family and we love to see how much they care for our son as if he’s their own.

    Levi's Mother

    Arlo's Mother

    Infant Classroom

  • We love the Goddard School and have been so impressed with the level of care our baby gets as well as the teaching and development provided. Our only ask is that you start allowing stroller storage so we can walk to pick up because we live a little far away to take the stroller back and forth. Thank you again all that you do for our little girl.
