Owner
Utilizing my degree in Education from West Chester University I began my career with The Goddard School in Exton as a teacher in 2002. I then became the Director of Education for 5 years, before becoming an Owner. As a mother and an educator I believe that providing children with daily experiences to grow and learn in an environment that supports the whole child is essential in creating life long learners!

GODDARD LOVE FROM
FAMILIES LIKE YOURS

Thank you Melissa, Amber, and Kathy for your tremendous leadership, kindness, understanding and love for each of not only my children but the other children as well. During the pandemic they have been communicative and quickly responsive. I am so thankful my girls have vibrant, loving, and knowledgeable teachers around them everyday. My family appreciates everything you do! Thank you!

Goddard provides us a safe and comfortable place to take our son during uncertain times. They have put in extra effort to comply with additional protocols and always make us feel welcomed. The staff is great and helpful with feedback and suggestions.

Our programs go beyond academics and help children develop important social-emotional skills like kindness, empathy, responsible decision making and more.
