Snohomish Reviews & Recognition

The love and commitment of our Goddard families inspires us every day. To help make each child’s learning experiences the best they can be, we are always happy to listen when parents share their expectations. Here’s what our families have to say.

  • We love how responsive all the teachers and staff are, and how they care for our kiddo! The school weathered the COVID pandemic with as much grace and attention to safety as possible, and it made us feel extremely comfortable sending our child there every day. The staff runs smoothly and with coordination, and we love that so many of the staff have been there for many years.

  • Consistency/Longevity of staff speaks volumes to your program. Greeting my child by name every morning, regardless of who the staff person is builds a sense of belonging and connection. High quality play and learning activities that provide a wealth of opportunities for child development.

    Toddler Classroom

  • We appreciate the school's wholistic approach to learning: academics, art, health, music. There are so many opportunities in each day, the children are never bored. But, each child is allowed to learn at their own pace. And each child is treated with respect and love. And their method for conflict/resolution is refreshing.
