Meet Saeeda

On-site Operator

My name is Saeeda Shirzad, and I’m honored to join the Goddard School Issaquah community as your new On-site Operator. I hold a master’s degree in early childhood development and bring over 15 years of experience in education, including school leadership, project management, and program development. I’m deeply passionate about early childhood education and believe in the power of positive relationships with children, families, and educators. My leadership style is collaborative, empathetic, and grounded in consistency. I strive to create a space where every child is celebrated, every family is heard, and every educator feels supported. I look forward to learning from each of you and continuing the tradition of excellence and care that defines the Goddard School. Please feel free to stop by and say hello. I’m excited to connect and grow with this amazing community.

My daughter is absolutely thriving at this center. We've seen so much growth since she started in her social, emotional, and educational skills. The staff is professional, kind, and experienced and my daughter loves and trusts her teachers.

We love the staff. We feel safe leaving our kids with them. And our kids also feel the love, and seen and heard. We always get feedback and little stories about their days. The staff always goes above and beyond to make them feel special.

Where They Start Matters

Early childhood is a time of endless potential — a season where curiosity, discovery and small victories build the foundation for a remarkable future. That’s why where a child begins their journey matters.

What Teachers Mean to Me

Every member of the Goddard faculty has special, often extraordinary, gifts they share with their students. When a child comes home happy and can't wait to see their teacher the next day, tell us about it. Take this moment to celebrate your child's teachers!
