    Owner
    Hello! My name is Erin Anderson and I am so thrilled you are considering bringing your child to our school. My journey with Goddard started about 10 years ago in Colorado when my oldest attended a Goddard School while I attended nursing school. We fell in love with the academic and enrichment programs, and were disappointed when we relocated to Texas and found it difficult to find a school that matched the quality program we had at Goddard. After years of working in nursing, I eventually decided to shift my career focus into Early Childhood as a school nurse and quickly knew this was where my heart belonged. After giving birth to my 4th child, I decided it was time to bring my dreams to reality and bring a Goddard School to my community of New Braunfels. Our state-of-the-art facility and top notch staff are ready to welcome your family to our growing family. We can't wait to meet you!

    Shaquairee

    Director
    Hello, my family and I moved from Illinois to Texas! I’m a lifelong learner who has worked with children 0-16 and families for the last 10 years. I firmly believe all children are a beautiful gift from God as Psalm 127:3 says. I adopted the philosophy of Jean Piaget, Lev Vygotsky, and Erik Erikson that was passed down from my ECE mentor. I believe no child should ever be left behind, I believe that children construct knowledge through healthy relationships and positive interactions in their environment and this happens in various stages. However, a child may stay in a stage as long as it takes to master that skill. I began my career in ECE directly after High School. I have worn multiple hats in the ECE Field from volunteering, T.A, teacher, youth mentor, nutrition specialist, parent policy committee chairperson, and assistant director/director. I received Early Childhood Education trainings/certifications from ILGatewaysToOppotunities program.

    Pre-Kindergarten 2
    Hello! My name is Miranda, and I am so excited to be joining the team of wonderful staff here at Goddard! I have worked in childcare with children of various age groups, backgrounds, and settings for over 10 years now. I grew up here in Texas out in Spring Branch, but spent middle school, high school, and college in Alburquerque New Mexico. While in New Mexico I graduated from Central New Mexico Community College with associate degrees in liberal arts, applied science and Western Civilization. I then moved back home to Texas and earned my bachelor's degree in English with a minor in History at Texas State University in December of 2019. Through my own educational journey, I have continued to work with children because I find that there is nothing more rewarding than being someone who a child looks up to in order to help them get wind beneath their growing wings so that we can stand back and proudly watch them fly.

    Hello my name is Erika! I am a Mother of 3, and a wife of 13 years. We moved to New Braunfels five years ago and immediately fell in love. I have worked with children my whole life it seems like, professionally I have worked for in childcare 10+ years. I enjoy working with children at this stage in their lives because in my opinion it is the best time to make an impact on who they become as adults. I know very few children will remember their Preschool Teacher but they will remember how to write their names, count and how to use their words! To know I played a part in that means the world to me.
