Fort Mill (Doby's Bridge) Reviews & Recognition

The love and commitment of our Goddard families inspires us every day. To help make each child’s learning experiences the best they can be, we are always happy to listen when parents share their expectations. Here’s what our families have to say.

  • We have been at Goddard for four and a half years and love it. The teachers and staff are the best and it’s such a warm environment. Can’t imagine sending our kids anywhere else!

    Toddler Classroom

  • Strong curriculum program, which has more than prepared my student for Kindergarten. Wonderful teachers and a culture that values teachers. Safe, warm and structured environment. Love the extra, but included, enrichment programs, like soccer, yoga, shining stars, and music Friday’s. New, clean facility.

    Xander 's Mother

    Infant Classroom

  • First and most importantly, the owners understand the way the school should be run. They find ways to improve the experiences of the families and care about our feedback. The staff they have put together is always of the highest caliber and is apparent how much they care for our children. We love the environment and have never had any concerns.

    Juliette & Everett & Layla's Mother

    Preschool Classroom

  • Some amazing teachers. Clean and professional environment. Newer and very nice building/playground/facility. My child loves the ‘big playground’. Seems to have much less teacher turnover than other daycare/preschools. Love the structured day and curriculum. The Otters classroom was amazing supporting my child with potty training and learning so many new skills. Love love soccer with Coach Henry and music day with Mr. Nigel. Mom also loves coffee truck day.

  • We love how interactive the teachers are with our daughter. Even though she’s only 3 months old, they do so much with her that we just would not have the capacity or knowledge to do.

    Infant Classroom

  • Curriculum based; my child is learning; safe environment; teachers are treated well and taken care of; facility is new and generally very clean; playground facility is top notch; love the ‘extras’ like soccer and yoga and music, etc. Admin and teachers have always been open to communication and feedback and working together .
