Meet Leila Owner
Hello, my name is Leila and my husband Travis and I are the proud owners of The Goddard School in Bentonville, Arkansas. I graduated with a Bachelors in Graphic Design and Marketing from John Brown University. Prior to owning The Goddard School of Bentonville, I worked for DaySpring Cards, a division of Hallmark, as a Designer and Art Director. After becoming a mom to our first daughter (and TWINS a few years later!) I chose to leave the full-time work environment and start my own freelance design business, all while balancing the wild, amazing job that is motherhood.
During those formative preschool years with my own young children, I learned that having support as a parent, as well as incredible early educational opportunities for my children, was a gift. I have a true passion to connect with families, genuinely know you as individuals, and to create an inspiring, unique, premier preschool experience for children that reflects the Bentonville and NW Arkansas community. Although Travis and I are a husband-and-wife team, I will be the on-site owner with Travis as a support role in our school.
I love spending my free time running, creating beauty and a healthy lifestyle in my home, and loving on my own three children: supporting their activities and interests, volunteering at their schools, and giving back to the community.

The staff here is unmatched! Every faculty member knows the name and face of every child and family member. They are welcoming, caring and supportive. This school makes you feel like you are leaving your child in a safe and engaging environment. It was so hard to let my kids go but I am so thankful we found this facility to care for them each day.
We can’t say enough good things about Goddard! Our son is not just cared for but loved. It is evident that the school truly values teaching, communication, safety, cleanliness, & organization. We are so thankful he gets to go to school here every day!
The administration and teachers are top quality who understand social and pedagogical needs of the child and parents. This is a very important combination that each and every school must understand in order to keep up with the standards and societal needs for the future.
