Skokie (Evanston/ Wilmette) Reviews & Recognition

I feel like we are part of a 'family' at Goddard. We love seeing the photos of our daughter during the day and love that even as an infant, there is a set curriculum for her. She clearly enjoys herself at Goddard and that gives us peace of mind that she's well taken care of.

What I like most of all about Goddard is how happy my daughter is at school. Each day she is excited to attend angst is just as happy at pick up time. I like that there are several outside resources that come to Goddard such as language stars and the theater group. Goddard is a safe and secure school. Lastly, i feel that my daughter is learning each and everyday.

The team at Goddard has excelled at making the environment feel homey and intimate, while never sacrificing excellence nor attention to detail. The teachers are loving and joyful. The administrative team is responsive and caring. We have been so thrilled with our time at Goddard.

Administrative staff and teachers are warm and caring, get to know my children, and clearly communicate with us as parents. COVID precautions have been stellar. To boot, the actual facilities are wonderful. I only feel good when I send my children to Goddard in Skokie and my confidence is reinforced by my kids' excitement to return to Goddard the next day to see their friends and teachers.

Our boys Yoni and Jonah absolutely love coming to school! The teachers are always so welcoming and warm! With one child on their way to Kindergarten and another just starting in Sea Lions its been an incredible journey watching Jonah grow the past five years, and we cannot wait to see Yoni do the same. Thank you guys so very much! We appreciate you more than you know.

The whole child approach to learning is appreciated. While we feel confident that our children will be more than prepared for the academics of kindergarten, they will also be prepared social-emotionally to advocate for themselves and others.

Words can hardly even begin to describe how close this school is to our hearts. We have been a part of the Goddard Family in Skokie for nearly 4 years and our daughter has been given many tools that allowed her to shape her own personality with nurturing teachers throughout these years. Her mind was opened up to new ideas, her creativity has taken on new levels, and she’s more inquisitive about the world, than ever before.

Goddard - Skokie has been a great experience so far! The teachers in both the 2 year old classroom and the toddler classrooms have been comforting, engaging and great at communicating with us! Our boys feel good about going to school everyday which makes all the difference!

The staff and owners treat your children like their own, wonderfully kind and thoughtful. This is a nursery that provides quality education that helps little one blossom. A business run truly by heart, this is so much more than “day care” it’s an investment in your child’s future, and I feel lucky to have found them.

We love that you take such good care of Leela! Goddard has been so attentive to Leela’s needs, her allergies and keeping her safe during this pandemic. We have loved every teacher she has had and all the fun things that they teach her. Leela has learned so much more being at Goddard than she would at home. We appreciate the safety measures being taken during the pandemic and believe Leela and all of the children and staff are safe!

The Goddard School staff and teachers make you feel feel part of the family from the very beginning. In a school with many children, everyone knows your child's name. You never feel lost in the shuffle. The staff is responsive, the teachers are loving and creative, and the students are happy!

I chose Goddard for its warmth. After touring so many other preschools, this was the only one where I sensed a genuine warmth and inviting feel from the physical environment and the staff. My son is very happy there and I can see his growth socially and academically.
