Ashland Reviews & Recognition

We always refer friends to Goddard. We love that both of our sons have identities there. Kids at Goddard are loved and challenged. Even during tough times, Goddard does everything they can to give children a place to grow, while their parents are in the workplace.

Hayden & Dean's Father

Pre-K Classroom

On our first day, with only meeting the Owner on a virtual tour, the Director referred to our son by name as we arrived for drop off. We had not even met her yet, but she still knew our family! This example of organization and preparation is one of many, as we are impressed daily with responsiveness and attention to detail. We trust our teachers. We trust the dedication of the management staff and onsite owners. This is a second home for our child, that comes with learning!

The building is bright, clean and cheerful. The staff is friendly, professional and very engaged with the children. The owners and management are also all of those things and very responsive. If you ever have a concern, they listen and address it without making excuses. I’ve always taken comfort in knowing the teachers are doing a great job of caring for my daughters and teaching them as well.

I like the kids having a soft curriculum built into the diverse play that is so important for preschool aged children. Introducing them to time, manners, nature, building relationships, responsibility, and a variety of ways to be creative, etc. is invaluable.
