I love the friendliness of staff and how they help to make my son feel comfortable each day. My daughter, now in kindergarten, loves when she gets to help pick her brother up so she can say hi to her old teachers that she loves.

I feel very fortunate to have our child in Goddard School. The staff is very friendly, the teachers are exceptional. We've had wonderful experience in each room our daughter transition to, Ms. Cody, Ms. Nicole, Ms. Ashlynn, Ms. Carlie, Ms. Lisa, amongst others provided great care. They bring lots of energy, passion and enthusiasm every day. Facility is clean and bright, I love large windows.
