GODDARD LOVE FROM FAMILIES LIKE YOURS

We’ve been at this Goddard for over seven years, but what Lynn and Jim have done since they took it over a few years ago is why we stayed, even when we moved closer to another one. The teachers are first rate, and we know our kids are both learning a lot and being nurtured in all the best ways.
Ella & Ava's Mother

Preschool Classroom
We love Goddard! We like the age appropriate daily routines and creative activities, personal attention from teachers, daily electronic reports, cleanliness and security of facility, and the high quality of staff and teachers!
Genevieve's Mother
Infant Classroom
We love how much Canaan is learning. His language has come a long way. He is counting 1-10 and recently trying to hold up corresponding fingers. He is engaging with his peers more. We are very happy with how much he has learned in the 4months he’s been there
