What Our Goddard Village Is Saying

Our daughter has so much fun and learns so much everyday! The teachers are so kind from the minute I bring her into the classroom to the scratch n sniff sticker she gets from the front desk on our way out! So much attention to details and very communicative and caring teacher base.

Miriam & Lana & Faris 's Father

Pre-K Classroom

We've only been part of Goddard for a month and it's been going great. The director and staff are so friendly and I know my baby is in good hands when I leave.

Mae 's Mother

Infant Classroom

- Noticeable improvement in language skills, creative thinking, and social development in the short time we’ve been at Goddard. - Exceptional communication protocols that never leave me guessing what’s going on at the school

Desmond & Eliza's Father

Bridge Classroom

We have felt incredibly supported by admin and the teachers at Goddard. We’ve been with Goddard for many years and I think that the school has evolved and improved so much. We went through a rough patch with behaviors recently and Kimmie and the teachers were understanding, thoughtful, and responsive. We felt that the plan that was made was evidence based and largely effective. Our son’s current teacher are so loving and kind and he is excited to come to school now.
