My son absolutely loves everything about the school, the teachers are great, the school is clean, and the activities engage him, I am extremely pleased with the school so far.

The Goddard School has been very accommodating and understanding. I needed care for my daughter so that I could continue working after her previous daycare closed. It has been a tough transition for her but the teachers and staff have been so helpful and the level of communication is amazing. Overall Goddard has managed to make our family feel comfortable in an uncomfortable time!

My kids enjoy their time there and always tell us stories about interacting with their teachers. It is also nice that there is a reasonable attempt to keep the school open during inclement weather events.
