Where They Start Matters
At The Goddard School of Gilbert (Higley), we believe that the start of your child's journey matters. Creating an environment where children want to ask questions is a better way of learning than the traditional one-way info transfer. That is "Wonder of Learning", a research-driven method we use as our foundation. We also offer our unique STEAM curriculum. Understanding engineering is one thing; teaching it to others is totally different. Now imagine teaching it to a 4-year-old! It seems impossible, but we have the secret sauce! Wonder of Learning + STEAM = better preparation for the real world!
Expert, Caring Teachers
Our extraordinary educators shape your child’s experience, creating a fun and engaging learning environment with personalized lesson plans focused on whole-child development.
Curriculum
Our education program, Wonder of Learning®, is the most innovative and well-researched on the market. It was created by early childhood development experts to empower children to explore their natural curiosity.

What Our Goddard Village Is Saying
I love the owners/directors, the teachers, the other families, the curriculum, and how much my kids love it! The staff truly cares about each kid and they are so loved. I am constantly blown away by how much they are learning, and they have so much fun doing it. They get so excited to go to school every day. Amazing experience!
I we love Ms. Van and Ms. Mykelanne! The whole staff is Amazing!! My son Cameron has learned so much. We are so glad our kiddos go to the Goddard School on Higley.
We absolutely love the Goddard School! I am so pleased with what my kids have learned there - the staff truly treats your child as one of their own. I know my children are in good hands and that they are learning and having fun in a safe and clean environment!
The Goddard School on Higley and Baseline has continued to offer excellent childcare throughout the pandemic. I wouldn’t trust any other childcare facility to care for my toddler! Thank you for providing childcare during a tough year.
We are very happy with the school. Everything is great and we have no complaints. Would like things to get more back to normal this year though, like Santa visits, school photos, etc.
We are so grateful that we found Goddard and the love and attention our kids have received there is second to none. Our oldest recently graduated and transitioned into Kindergarten, like he had been there already. He was totally prepared for what actual school had in store for him. Van and Mykelanne are simply the best! They hire incredible teachers too, we highly recommend Goddard on Higley!!
This school is amazing. My daughter is 2 and has only been there for a month and has learned so much in such a short amount of time. I thank this school very much
We love the teachers, the science lessons, computer lessons, and music day.
