What Our Goddard Village Is Saying

My children LOVE school. They are learning so much -- including problem solving and deductive reasoning--but they just see it as lots of fun with friends. I ask my son "Did you have a good day?" And every day, he says, "My day was awesome." Teachers really care and administration is just on top of everything.

Wonderful staff, clean, safe school and my child is learning so much.

Callan's Mother

Infant Classroom

Great leadership that trickles down to the teachers, staff, and children. My two favorite things about the Goddard is the emphasis on exposure, learning, and fun in the first 5 years, and the excellent ongoing communication between the directors and teachers with the parents. Henry has had a wonderful experience thus far, and I would highly recommend the Goddard of Maplewood to any family looking for a phenomenal school that goes above and beyond.

Henry's Mother

Toddler Classroom

We love that it is a school environment and not a typical ‘daycare’. Their days are filled with purposeful activities that expand their horizons and keep them engaged. The emphasis on education and development is very important to us.
