What Our Goddard Village Is Saying
The staff is warm and inviting and the teachers are knowledgeable and caring. My girls are excited to go to school each morning with smiles on their faces!
Our kids have been exposed to so many topics and love learning! The curriculum is always making things fun with themes the kids can get excited about. Staff & teacher turnover is really low compared with other preschools in the area. And most of all teachers really get to know each child and truly cares about them.
I absolutely love this school. After only one month my daughters brain has completely lit up and I can see she’s gaining so many skills. The teachers and staff are so kind
I LOVE Everything about the school! I have been at the school for over 6 years now and have had two girls go throught it. There isn't another childcare facility I would ever want to care for my children. They are on it from start to FINISH :)
Everyone that works there genuinely loves and supports every single child. As a result I feel extremely comfortable leaving my son in their care. Dianne feels like a part of our family. The moment that I saw her I knew that the school would be the perfect fit. I was her son’s teacher when he was in middle school. It was a sign. Then after meeting several teachers I knew for a fact that this school is the best thing that ever happened to Christopher as well as our family.
Personal attention and time dedicated to learning each child. Also, a curriculum with structured activities for diverse learning opportunities.
I can’t say anything bad about the Goddard experience at all. They have gone above my expectations and really taught my kids skills that have helped them beyond their school. I am actually enrolling my third child and feel absolutely grateful for finding such a great place all of them to start their early learning experience. Top notch all the way.
I wish Sophia would have gone to Goddard from day one but we are so happy that we are there now
