Meet Jeff & Ms Michele Owners

We're Michele and Jeff, and we couldn't be prouder to be the owners of The Goddard School of West Long Branch. As hands-on owners, you'll find us at the school every single day, ensuring that your child receives nothing but the best in academics and care. With four kids of our own (plus two amazing son-in-laws) and the joy of being grandparents to Ezra Jude and Logan Sadie, family is at the heart of everything we do. Before joining the Goddard family, we both had successful careers in sales management, bringing with us a wealth of experience and a passion for excellence. Now, we're channeling that same drive into creating a nurturing and stimulating environment where your child can learn, grow, and thrive. We can't wait to get to know each and every one of you and to embark on this incredible journey together. Above all, we treat every child who comes through our door as one of our own. We would love to show you our school!
