Our family has absolutely loved our experience at Goddard. The staff is not only friendly and kind but they all genuinely care about our child and it shows.

Elliana 's Mother

Infant Classroom

From the first time we stepped foot inside Goddard, we have felt like it was our sons home away from home. We are at peace knowing Ryder is at the best place for learning. We are so thankful to have Goddard and the staff to love on our son and teach him.

Ryder's Mother

We love how happy our little one seems there. Getting daily pictures and updates makes us feel connected to her even when we're not with her, and we know that she is being well cared for.

Liam's Mother

Pre-K Classroom

The constant communication between Goddard staff (on up to the director) gives us peace of mind that our four month old is in the best hands. I also love that Goddard feels like a community. The administrative staff knows our daughters name, even though they don't teach her directly. We don't feel like "just a number" here

Ever since we enrolled at Goddard almost 3 years ago, I know that my children are well cared for. They keep up updated on incidents that occur and if my out children develop a fever while there. I also like the curriculum and school structure aspect to better prepare our children for kindergarten. We love the teachers and staff so much!

Amaal 's Mother

Junior-K Classroom

The teachers at Goddard and the staff go above and beyond to connect with students and understand their personality and needs for learning. Each student is treated with kindness and care and teachers work with family / caregivers to help each student succeed in their development in classroom and real life. The social emotional lessons for children are what I find to be the most unique and I enjoy that my child has learned how to communicate their emotional needs and feelings to me.

The list is long! Low staff turnover, excellent teachers and staff, fabulous Harvest lunches (that my toddler eats enthusiastically), socialization, monthly billing, fun mixers and school fairs, art projects, pictures sent daily about what my kiddo did during the day... so much to love about Goddard. Also, Summer Camp programming was a blast!
