We are so grateful for the wonderful care and attention that Kendra and Tamara give our daughter. They are always so positive, warm, and welcoming, and it’s clear how much they genuinely love and care for the children in their class. That makes us, as parents, feel confident and reassured about leaving her in such good hands.
No place is perfect, but it has been perfect for our son. All of the teachers have been caring and invested in creating a great environment for them to learn and develop.
Mrs. Miracle has been an outstanding teacher for our daughter. Her patience, enthusiasm, and dedication to each child’s development truly stand out. We’ve seen real growth in our daughter's confidence and communication skills since joining her class. She creates a warm, engaging, and supportive learning environment that makes our daughter excited to go to school every day. We’re very grateful for her positive influence and would highly recommend her to other families.
Staff and administration know my son and family. They are always kind too! Every teacher we have had so far does a great job of keeping us up to date with our son and his milestones.
The staff is great, communication is consistent, and my child is really thriving
- The security of the Goddard School is fantastic. It makes me feel that my child is very safe. - I can tell that the teachers really care about the well-being and growth of my child. - I appreciate the curriculum my child is learning about in his class! - I appreciate the daily updates on my child's eating, diaper changes, and what's she's learning / how she's doing during the day.
I love how the teachers cares for the children. Ms cheketta and Ms Dija and Ms Megan have done a great job to help my son have smooth transition and feel secure. They are very caring and kind.
Everyone is always very nice and organized. Also everything is very clean, he doesn’t get sick at daycare as much as some of my friends’ kids.
