Lake Forest (Baker Ranch) Reviews & Recognition

I love that Goddard's curriculum is STEAM based! I also appreciate the daily reports of what my child is learning everyday! I could not believe how many activities they are able to do in one day! The teachers are all rock stars! And my son LOVES going to Goddard! We are so happy to be a part of the Goddard family!

Very clean and professional environment. We love the staff and the teachers way of handling kids, transitioning kids to school and overall communication . We really appreciate how they report about our child’s daily activities. Love the sick policy and how they check for wellbeing of every child before entering the school. Extremely content and thankful.

All the teachers are super awesome! I feel like they really care about my son. The front office is always friendly and responsive. The owner is so involved in her school and I think her leadership really sets the positive tone.

The Goddard School philosophy appears to be a combination of teaching with planned lessons and play. Infants sing songs and have craft activities. There's a daily activity report and an occasional buggy ride where children spend some time outdoors. Most importantly you can tell Parina loves all the children and the teachers all seem to care for the children well.

Great staff. Nice, clean environment for the kids. And it's great that when some kids get sick who may be contagious, that they sanitize the classroom and require a doctor's note before the sick kid could return to school. It shows commitment to the well-being of all the kids. The owner is also very hands-on and treats everyone like family.

We love the teachers at Goddard. She enjoys going to 'school' each day. Really like the outside space so she can run and play safely. The extra safety measures are great as well.

My daughter Amanee started about a month ago and she is loving the school. She is learning quite a bit and I catch her singing the songs and poems she learned or the story of the day. The staff is always welcoming and Amanee has adjusted very well with all of them in a very short time.

I like how new and clean the school is. I like that there's a great big yard for the kids to run around. I like how open the staff is to feedback. I like that there's a mixture of children from different nationalities. I like the daily electronic communication. I like that my son is learning new things everyday.

Tristan & Caden's Mother

The fact that my daughter is happy to go to school every day is a good sign. As a parent, I like that they update of the child's daily activity detailed along with a picture every day. The flexibility of calling the school or going there physically to check on your kid at times you wish to check is good.
