I Love Goddard’s curriculum and communication between the directors and parents.
Not only have I worked for goddard in the past now my 2 youngest children go there. I love the learning through play and also the teachers patients with all these young people. I appreciate everything they do for my family.
I like how interactive the teachers are, and they make learning fun. I can tell my daughter is learning and likes learning because she comes home and talks about or says things that she's learned. She even asks questions about things she is learning. It's a very positive experience for her.
I've only been to the Goddard School for a month, attending part time, but everything has been extraordinary. It is clean, there is structure, everyone has been extremely kind, the teachers are genuinely caring individuals, & communication is great. I also love the pictures that are sent to me on a daily basis so I can see my little one when I cannot be with him.
My wife Adrienne and I switched our daughter Ava from another daycare in the West Chester area to the Goddard School in July 2014. This school has been an amazing experience for Ava and for us. The teachers and management there have been great to work with and we feel safe knowing Ava is in good hands every day. Two other areas I think this school is really good at: 1) Communication from the management and teachers to us has been phenomenal. The Tadpoles app is really great and gives us insights into what Ava does on a daily basis (and we love the pictures!) 2) Infant Room staff: The staff in that room has tremendous experience, it clearly shows in daily interactions and it was a really great first impression of the school overall.
Overall, everything seems well-organized and well thought out. There appears to be a lot of time and effort that goes in to the programs, snacks, events, etc. and a lot of care and consideration that goes in trying to reduce/create awareness of illness. We also appreciate the time you take to get to know each of the parents and children. It is more than just dropping your child off and keeping them entertained while you are at work, I feel that my child is learning and growing in many different ways there every day.
I love the attention to curriculum, the extra activities for the kids and the awesome staff. :) Great job!
Great structure and organization. Our son loves school!
