Meet Sydney On-Site Owner

I’m Sydney Banks, the on-site owner of The Goddard School in Cheshire. Early Childhood Education has always been home for me—I grew up in a nurturing childcare program that shaped my life, and it’s my greatest joy to create that same sense of comfort, connection, and belonging for the families in our community. I hold an Associate’s degree in Early Childhood Education, am a certified Head Teacher in Connecticut, and am completing my Bachelor’s with a focus on Program Administration and Leadership. My background includes years in preschool classrooms, beginning my Goddard journey in South Windsor, along with leadership experience in the restaurant industry that strengthened my communication and operational skills. As both an educator and a mom, I’m deeply committed to building a warm, supportive school where children feel safe, inspired, and celebrated. I can’t wait to welcome your family and begin building meaningful relationships—one joyful moment at a time.

What Our Goddard Village Is Saying

We can't wait for your review! In the meantime, hear from another family about why they love their Goddard village.

"We feel so grateful for The Goddard School^® and its teachers and school leaders! Our child has absolutely loved each day from the very beginning. He has grown so much socially, emotionally and academically. The balance of 1-on-1 and whole group activities is perfect. And we really appreciate all the pictures with lesson summaries so that we can discuss with our son and reinforce at home."
