Meet Jean Owner

I am Jean Croft and I am the onsite owner for The Goddard School in Cumming. Known simply as Mama Croft to my 8 grand children, I have been working in early childhood education for more than 40 years, and opened this campus in 2006. This is the only Goddard School that I am a part of, making this place the most loving, nurturing and educational environment for its students is my heartbeat and passion. Several of my grandchildren started as infants on this campus and went all the way through the Goddard School program before seeing great success in elementary school and beyond. I am extraordinarily passionate about working with young children, and it is a joy for me to see them learn and grow so much day after day and year after year. In my spare time you can often find me at my grandchildren's ball games in Georgia and around the southeast. I hope to meet you and your family very soon when you come in for your tour of The Goddard School!
