Wayland Reviews & Recognition

The love and commitment of our Goddard families inspires us every day. To help make each child’s learning experiences the best they can be, we are always happy to listen when parents share their expectations. Here’s what our families have to say.

  • The communication between teachers and parents is wonderful. Patient and kind staff. Greeted each morning with smiling faces & teachers genuinely interested in how each child’s night & morning went to ensure best start to day possible!

    Preschool Classroom

  • Goddard has helped bring up both our children (from 3 mo. to pre-k) over the span of 11 years. The high quality of care and kindness is why we continued to work with them and highly recommend them to others. Both our children have learned basic elementary school fundamentals and more importantly have learned to share, collaborate with others, and solve problems.

  • The Wayland Goddard School are my family and words can not express how grateful we are to have the honor to be part of this community. The teachers and staff have done an outstanding job educating and helping to develop my kids, not to mention they were an absolute lifeline during this past year. We are so thankful for all you do!! xoxo The Greenwoods

    Goddard Graduate

  • There is nothing I don’t like about Goddard. The faculty and staff are some of the warmest, kindest, and most nurturing human beings. They all know my children’s names (even if they haven’t had them in their classroom yet!) The curriculum in place has allowed my oldest to grow leaps and counts in such a short amount of time. Everything is clean. The building feels safe. Communication is top notch. Just cannot recommend this school enough.

  • The educators are passionate about their profession, and genuinely love the children. They are quick to adapt to challenges, and every decision they make balances the needs of the children and parents, while ensuring a safe and productive environment. Children who attend The Goddard School not only enjoy advanced academic development, but also social awareness and capabilities. I truly adore the school, the staff, and the person my son has become in part thanks to his time at Goddard.

  • We like the profesionalism of the teachers. My son started using words after just two weeks of going at Goddard, and we speak a different language at home ! You can see the teachers care about the kids, because our son was happy to go to day-care within 3 weeks of starting school at Goddard. The breath of activities they do with the kids is amazing: hands-on science, playing outside. We also appreciate all the rules for keeping our kids safe in these crazy times.

  • We had parent teacher conferences after my child was only enrolled about 4 days. I thought it would be a very brief conversation, but was pleasantly surprised to find the teacher already knew my son so well! She knew what he liked, what he plays with, the words he often uses, etc. It was truly heartwarming to know my son had been “seen”. Every staff member we’ve encountered is kind and friendly and goes above and beyond. We are so happy with our decision for our son to attend The Goddard.

They love playing “school” at home and they want to be one of the teachers from Goddard School. When they play at home, as parent, we get a glimpse of what their day is like. You see kindness and being polite. Even the tone of their voices is calming. We are thank for the staff and administration at Goddard School.
