Meet Kellie McDonald & Matt Cibor Owner

As lifelong residents of metro Detroit, and proud parents ourselves, we are excited to bring The Goddard School of Beverly Hills to families in our community! Kellie opened the first Goddard School in Michigan in 2007 in Lake Orion, MI, and her passion for educating and caring for children is prevalent the moment you enter her school. It also shows in her charitable work with local children’s charities that share her passion for the importance of high quality early childhood education. After getting engaged in 2017, Matt & Kellie began a journey which builds on Matt’s past experience implementing standards & building high performing teams and Kellie’s experience owning and operating one of the top Goddard schools in the country in Lake Orion, MI. When we are not at the school, we enjoy playing golf, tennis and spending time with our boys.

What Our Goddard Village Is Saying

We are so happy we made the decision to send our son to The Goddard School. You provide a wonderfully loving and enriching environment for the kids. All of your staff is so caring. We couldn’t be happier.

Grant's Mother

Preschool Classroom

Our child’s growth has been remarkable. We love the play based curriculum, while still learning so much - the day our 3 1/2 YO came home talking about Pluto being a dwarf planet and Saturn’s rings being made from rock and ice was remarkable. The teachers and staff really care, and it shows!

Hunter's Mother

Preschool Classroom

Our experience with Goddard - Beverly Hills has been wonderful! It’s clear that the owners genuinely care about the center, and that passion shows in how the teachers engage with the kids. We feel confident sending our children here and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a caring and supportive environment for their little ones.

Charlotte & Caleb's Mother

Toddler Classroom

I love the teachers and staff. I see the same faces every day where other places had high teacher turnover. The curriculum is enriching without being too rigid.

Isla's Mother

Preschool Classroom

Specifically for early education (2yo-kindergarten), I recognize the shift and growth in my child since our transfer from a different early childhood program. And my child has maintained an upward trajectory of growth and development that is setting them up for a solid foundation to enter kindergarten in both academic and social readiness.

Roman & Baby's Mother

Pre-K Classroom

I love seeing the continued investment in exciting new things for the students like Beverly and the large outdoor building set. I also love seeing the long term tenure of the staff. It is so instrumental for the kids!

Arrow & Atlas's Mother

Preschool Classroom

The staff, teachers, directors are all amazing. Seriously. Sure the building is nice and facilities are great but when really matters are the people. You guys do a great job of hiring people who are passionate and kind and it really shows.

Ian's Father

Preschool Classroom

Responsive management, empathetic to concerns, communicative. Staff in classroom communicate details about my child’s days upon pick up and actively implement home interventions in the classroom (working on independent potty tasks). We have family in NV that are looking into a local Goddard after learning of our transition.
