We're one month in and I've had complete confidence in the staff who have demonstrated great care for my daughter. I love seeing the lesson plans and curriculum in action. I look forward to the tadpole updates everyday and it's wonderful to see so many different lessons and activities that my daughter is exposed to every day. So far so good!

Ms. Leandra is simply outstanding! Her dedication, patience, and ability to create a nurturing learning environment makes her a gem in the world of preschool education. Our child adores her, and we're grateful for the positive impact she's had on his early learning journey. He is so excited to learn addition and sight words every week, even in preschool! Highly recommend!

We love Goddard. Eshaan is doing so well here. He was 2 when he started. Now he is 5. Last 3 yrs goddard taught him so well, we hardly do any teaching at home. Every detail of his daily activity is well informed. We feel safe and secure when we drop him off at school. Now he is going to be K this year. We miss Goddard. We wish if there is a K at goddard, we would have totally gone for it. Thank you for all the care. Eshaan loves Goddard.
