Owner
Welcome to our School. My husband Monty and I are the on- site owners at The Goddard School located in Bethlehem. Monty and I live in the Lehigh Valley and have 3 daughters. We became Goddard parents in 2004 when we found that The Goddard School was the best place where we wanted to send our then toddler and preschooler. The Goddard School at Bethlehem opened in 2008 to bring exceptional standards in little children's education and care to the Lehigh Valley. My passion is to bring you the same standards and quality in Early Childhood Education and care that I had wanted for our children. Monty has an MBA from Ballarat University, Australia. Prior to joining Goddard, he was the Founder and CEO of CumulusIQ and Consarete Technologies. I have an MD and was involved with in-patient medicine until 2016. My favorite children's book is "Green Eggs and Ham" by Dr. Seuss.

My children have learned so much during the 6+ years that we have been attending Goddard. My daughter was more than prepared for public Kindergarten, and both my kids have shown great ability to socialize and be kind to friends around them. The teachers work very hard and my kids have loved them all.

Pre-K Classroom

The faculty have been very friendly since day 1. I have noticed a significant improvement with my daughter's development in a very short period of time. The communication, focus, physical, and listening are key elements in their program

Kayla's Father

Preschool Classroom

I can't say enough good things about the Goddard School in Bethlehem. The teachers are wonderful, the administrative staff is very helpful and just overall a great environment for my children to learn. I would recommend this school to anyone looking for a place where their kids can be nurtured yet pushed to grow into little independent people.
