What Our Goddard Village Is Saying

My oldest daughter has gone here ever sense she was 8 months old. She is now about to start kindergarten. My youngest started attending last year as well. It has been a positive experience from the get-go. Both love going to school. The teachers are friendly and they do a ton of different activities.

Adrienne & Finnley 's Mother

Junior-K Classroom

My children absolutely love this school. They have developed so much by being a part of the Goddard School and I never worry about them.

Scarlett & Carter's Mother

Preschool Classroom

Over the 10+ years we have had children at this school we have always enjoyed an open and honest relationship with the teachers and owners. We feel completely comfortable leaving them here each day knowing that they are happy and cared for as if they were family.

Marley & Shawn's Mother

Pre-K Classroom

Every one of the teachers has been so welcoming and engaged with my child. I feel like her happiness and safety are the top priority. The administration is also very involved and prompt when answering questions. The app also gives me insight into my child’s day which brings me peace of mind knowing she’s enjoying herself and learning. I couldn’t be happier.

Philomena 's Mother

Pre-K Classroom

Staff feels like extended family. Low teacher to student ratios, great curriculum and communication with parents. We have been so happy having our 7 month old son here. He gets lots of quality time with teachers and classmates, outside time, arts and crafts and more. This is so much more than we have experienced at another daycare center with his age group. We would highly recommend.
