Miss Nancy
OwnerI have proudly owned The Goddard School of Mechanicsburg for over 20 years, bringing a wealth of experience and passion to early childhood education. As a mother of four, I understand the importance of creating a nurturing, safe, and engaging environment for young learners. Before venturing into education, I worked as a pediatric RN for nearly 10 years, providing compassionate care to children and families. My dedication to service extends beyond the classroom—I have been deeply involved in the Mechanicsburg community for over two decades, fostering strong relationships and supporting local initiatives. As proud veteran, I bring discipline, leadership, and a strong sense of duty to everything I do. I am committed to ensuring every child at The Goddard School receives the highest quality care and education, preparing them for a bright and successful future! -
Miss Emily
Executive DirectorMiss Emily is the daughter of our owner, Nancy, and she absolutely loves being alongside her mom—watching the love, care, and passion that go into each and every day here at The Goddard School! Emily is currently a student at Penn State University, where she’s studying Early Childhood Education. When she’s not studying or helping out at Goddard, you can find her spending time with family and friends or riding horses. Her favorite part about Goddard is, planning fun summer camp activities for all of our amazing kiddos and seeing their smiles light up the day!
