Meet Hollie Co-Owner

Meet the owner, Hollie! Hollie has spent her career helping young children learn, grow, and feel truly seen. After earning her degree in Elementary Education with a focus on Early Childhood Education, she began as a Pre-K teacher at a large early childhood center and quickly discovered how much she loved the work. Her passion and leadership soon led her into the role of director. She later taught kindergarten in Cherry Creek School District, which deepened her understanding of children’s developmental needs. In 2008, she felt called back to early childhood education and opened The Goddard School of Centennial as Executive Director. For 12 years, she dedicated herself to building a warm, high quality school community. After taking a few years off to be home with her own children, Hollie’s journey came full circle. In 2025, she became the proud owner of The Goddard School of Centennial. She is committed to making sure every teacher feels valued and every family feels supported.

What Our Goddard Village Is Saying

We have had both of our kids in the Goddard preschool program, and the teachers for both of them have been wonderful. They are caring, patient, and very supportive, and we’ve really appreciated how much attention they give to each child. Our kids have had such a positive experience there, and we’re grateful for the warm and nurturing environment the teachers create every day.

The fun learning part, which keeps my kid engaged and interested at the same time that he learns too. And the teachers are very accommodating to my child's needs. Thank you for everything.

Shaurya's Mother

Junior-K Classroom

The teachers and staff are beyond amazing! Our son had delayed development and was also diagnosed with Autism and his teachers have been so supportive and involved with his progress. They are welcome to having his therapists visit in the classroom. We've seen phenomenal progress in his development and I can't imagine him going anywhere else.
