What Our Goddard Village Is Saying
My daughter is thriving in the preschool program at Goddard School. The staff and teachers are wonderful to work with, and they really take the time to know and meet my child's individual needs. She is understood, challenged, and cannot wait to go to school every day!
We had a great first week. We loved receiving the updates from Miss Robin and getting to see pictures of him in his new environment. We are all adjusting well to our new routine and are thankful our baby is happy and well taken care of.
We love the detailed daily notes at the end of each day! It helps us ask questions about school and build conversation at the dinner table. We started at Goddard during the pandemic and feel that Goddard has taken measures to safely provide care while also allowing little learners to explore and play. Thank you for all the hard work and care you offer!
The teachers at Goddard school are what set it a part from others. The teachers are so wonderful and caring. They know each and every child, which allows them to help each child be their best.
I love that every staff member we talk to truly cares about our little one. Everyone is so welcoming and caring and they have the best interest of each and every kid. It makes sending our little one to school a lot easier knowing they’re in good hands.
I can’t say enough about the leadership and staff. They are amazing. My children look forward to going to school everyday. They are so excited to come home and tell us what they learned or did for the day. I would recommend this school to everyone.
With this being the first time we have used "daycare" for our newborn son we weren't sure what to expect. The Goddard School has constantly exceeded our expectations.
We have been with the Goddard School for over 10 years and have our 3rd child there. The caring staff, security of the facilities, learning environment for the children and overall environment have kept us returning! We love watching our kids grow and flourish within the Goddard environment and their staff love these kids like their own!
