Owner
Jim, Becky (wife), Sean (son) and Rachel (daughter) are thrilled to bring The Goddard School to the wonderful community of Mount Juliet. Jim earned both a Bachelor’s Degree in Mathematics and a Master’s Degree in Education from Roosevelt University in Chicago, IL. Becky earned a Bachelor's Degree in Economics and Finance from the University of Illinois in Champaign-Urbana, IL. Jim taught high school mathematics for many years and is now very excited to own and operate The Goddard School. He is friendly and welcoming and maintains a family-centered approach to early childhood education. Jim is also dedicated to providing a warm, safe and secure environment conducive to learning, especially learning while having fun. In his free time, Jim enjoys traveling, snow skiing and spending time with family and friends. The Goddard School goes well beyond a typical daycare. It provides the highest quality preschool care, education and experiences.

GODDARD LOVE FROM FAMILIES LIKE YOURS

The teachers and staff are always friendly. I feel like my child is actually learning as opposed to just a normal daycare setting. The communication is amazing! The app they use to communicate is also very user friendly. We switched to Goddard from another school and couldn’t be happier! And the best thing, our son loves going!
Asher's Mother
Preschool Classroom
Everyone is so friendly and caring. I feel like they really know and care about my child which makes it so much easier to leave her there each day. I also like all of the learning activities the children experience each day, even as young as the infant room!
Eliana's Mother
Infant Classroom
Staff are kind, courteous, and contentious. My son is engaged, well taken care of, and has fun. He learns new things every day. He is safe and happy to be there.
Logan's Mother
Pre-K Classroom
The staff is personable and knows my child personally. The curriculum is diverse and provides my child with a learning experience instead of simply being child care.
