Novi 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.

  • We have been extremely impressed with the security, friendliness of staff, and exceptional communication that has occurred during our time at Goddard. We enjoy the app updates that we get with what activities our daughter did for the day and the thoroughness of her diaper changes, feeding, and napping. We feel that the staff truly care for our daughter and are attentive to her needs.
