What Our Goddard Village Is Saying

I always feel welcomed everytime we walk in. I feel like they do truly care about each and every child and parent.

Merrick & Molly's Mother

Preschool Classroom

I believe you all are amazing at what you do and I trust you all with my children

Charles & Chloe's Mother

Pre-K Classroom

We can tell everyone at the school (at least everyone we’ve met so far) truly cares about all the kids....& the parents too! You guys are so accommodating, understanding and reassuring with nervous first time parents and we couldn’t ask for more. I don’t have any concerns about my daughters safety or wellbeing while she’s in your care. I’m so glad we found you!

Emily's Mother

Toddler Classroom

I love the staff, curriculum and how happy my kids are at the school. I couldn't ask for anything more.

Leland & Deegan's Mother

Pre-K Classroom

John and Renee have been so friendly and welcoming since we first called with interest. They were wonderful when I came to tour Goddard and again with my husband. Miss Chris, Miss Dori and Miss Emily have been wonderful with my seven month old daughter who has attended for a few weeks. Choosing a daycare was harder than choosing my college. I am so happy with our decision to choose Goddard and look forward to many more years there.

Jocelyn & Brice's Mother

Infant Classroom

The way they care for our son is fantastic. He likes going and he is always smiling in the pictures they share throughout the day. He is learning so much. Thank you to the entire staff for your hard work teaching the next generation of leaders!

Samuel's Father

Toddler Classroom

We love The Goddard School! We just moved to the area and were interested in finding a school that would care for our child in the same way that we would. We found it! My daughter has already learned so much and loves going to “school”. We are thankful for this program and would definitely recommend!

Alyce & baby's Mother

Toddler Classroom

We love the teachers, school leadership, and program structure. It’s never completely easy to leave your child in the care of others all day but when you know your child is happy and loved and EXCITED ... that makes everything so much better!
