Very structured, and our 15-month old twins seem to pick up and learn so much. It's fascinating to watch, and we thank Goddard for their caring and nurturing culture.

Our daughter has been at Goddard since she was 12 weeks old. The amount of knowledge and life skills they have taught her are priceless! We recommend Goddard to ALL of our friends.

Goddard has a great education program. The teachers are fantastic; they provide positive feedback and clearly communicate areas for improvement. Both of our children have thrived at Goddard and have really impressed us with the speed of their learning. We know it's the best program that we could have them enrolled in.

Safe, nurturing environment where my children learn and interact with classmates in their age and developmental level. The community feels like an extension of our family - the teachers are wonderful as are the management staff.

Everyone working at Goddard seem to consistently focus on the well-being of the children. Which always amazes me that anyone can handle, being with so many children all day long. I also like that there is very little employee turn-over.
