Verona Reviews & Recognition

The people at Goddard School are by far it’s best quality. Everyone is friendly and helpful. As a first time parent, it was overwhelming leaving our daughter for the first time after having her home for 6 months and I felt immediately at ease when we dropped her off on the first day. While the people are the best, the facilities and the activities are always clean and inviting.

Infant Classroom

Everyone — administrators on down to assistant teachers — genuinely cares. The facility remains spotless. The COVID rules are followed to the letter. I am SO impressed by the staff and leadership. I feel absolutely secure sending my kids to school despite the insanity going on in the rest of the county.

Caroline & Quinn's Father

Goddard Graduate

Everyone at Goddard school is truly an extension of our family. Every parent feels like no one is going to care for their child like they do, but Goddard is the exception. We truly feel every employee treats each child as if he/she was their own. Not only is our daughter receiving exceptional child care, but she is also provided with age-appropriate curriculum and routine. We couldn't ask for a better place for our daughter!

Brynlee's Mother

Goddard Graduate

Goddard does an excellent job with communicating with the parents, especially during the ongoing COVID pandemic. I feel like it is a safe environment for my children, and they are engaging in fun activities with their classmates. The teachers are fabulous and I can tell my children have grown so much since attending the school!

Conor & Maeve's Mother

Toddler Classroom

The owners are incredibly responsive to all concerns. The teachers are high quality. I didn't need to respect them more, but the fact that, early in the pandemic, their main concerns were taking care of their employees and families, said a lot to me about their integrity.

Mara & Dean's Mother

Preschool Classroom

Wonderful teachers, staff, and owners; lovely, clean, well-appointed facilities; fun, family-focused childcare. Every member of the Goddard team prioritizes the children entrusted to them, and the open communication and efforts to support families are readily apparent in all they do.

Margaret & Carrick's Mother

We love The Goddard School. Our girls enjoy going there & the staff is amazing. There isn't one staff member that we don't love and they treat our girls as their own children. The staff and owners do an exceptional job communicating & asking for feedback. We would highly recommend Goddard school.

Friendly and caring teachers/caregivers that truly care about each kid. They all get to know the personality and special needs of each child. The owners are always present, helping out somewhere and super nice. This place is amazing with even more amazing people.

Ryella's Mother

Pre-K Classroom

We love the Goddard school. They know every child and family and treat the kids so well. I am very impressed and always have been impressed by their curriculum and ability to engage even the infants in age appropriate skills. Our kiddo loves to go to school and has learned so much already. I am excited to have our infant daughter start their as well in the spring.

Bennett & Rosalin's Mother

Pre-K Classroom

We're always amazed at the things our child has learned from school - we do activities and read books and stuff at home, but we don't know how to teach, so the quality of time is so much better at school when she's being guided by her teachers and surrounded by peers. There are also just basic life skills that we feel like we're dropping the ball on at home but we still see our child demonstrating the skills because of what she does at school. Also, the teachers and staff are AMAZING!

Aurora's Mother

We are very happy with our decision to send our daughter to Goddard - she loves it!

The facility is very professionally run. I’m impressed that one or both owners are on site every day. The communication with parents is fantastic, and I’ve been really satisfied with how Goddard has handled Covid and been able to stay open through everything. The teachers are great too. Liz, Alyssa, Mary all seem to deeply care for the kids and our daughter is learning a lot through diverse activities and lots of social time.

Maggie's Father

My daughter enjoys school, she learns a lot and she is energized to learn more when ache gets home. She’s always practicing her yoga and art and she is already “reading” at 2. Her joy made it easy to keep her enrolled!

Obsessed with our Penguin Room teachers. Ashley and Gabby are so great. It's clear that milo loves going to daycare, he's so excited to see them everyday. Makes us feel a lot better about having him in their care. Also been very impressed with the handling of any Covid scares.

Milo & Baby's Mother

Infant Classroom

The Goddard School is an incredible daycare center and pre school. My daughter learns so much, the teachers are incredibly communicative and creative with their lessons. Even from the infant stage, my daughter was doing activities I never would have though of doing or thought she was capable of. It is such an enriching experience for her. I also feel it's incredibly safe and that safety overall is a key concern and priority for the whole school.

Olivia Marilyn & Voss's Mother

Kiria & Jaquelin's Mother

We continue to have zero complaints about the Goddard school. Our children's teachers are fantastic, and ownership/management/administration are always responsive to our questions. I tell everyone who asks to send their kids to Goddard Verona -- we will sorely miss our Goddard family once our last child ages out.

Mayukha's Mother

Toddler Classroom

I feel very comfortable having my child there. The teachers actually do things with the children and don't just put them on the ground with a rattle.

Mia's Mother

Infant Classroom

The Goddard school is a great daycare. The teachers were wonderful, knowledgeable, and knew exactly what my daughter needed, such as morning cuddles. The management were great and very helpful. My daughter has advanced so much from this daycare. She has widened her vocabulary, become a more outgoing and confident child, learned new information such as shapes and numbers, and best of all was the help potty training my daughter. I would defiantly recommend the Goddard School to friends.

Eleanor's Mother

Preschool Classroom

The curriculum is engaging. The facilities are clean and inviting. The staff are all wonderful and friendly. When they knew my name only the second time seeing me, it made me feel like part of the family.

We have been very happy with our experience so far at the Goddard School and have found the transition for our little one to have gone great.

Henry's Mother

Students with kids their own age which isn't guaranteed at an in-home day care. The weekly themes are so fun for the parents and our daughter is exposed to activities that we just couldn't do at home with one child.

Caroline's Mother

Toddler Classroom

It is both a fun and safe place. The kids hey activity and simulation during the day. The price is affordable. The location is directly on my route to work.

Charlotte & Chloe's Mother

Pre-K Classroom

We have been so grateful for the goddard teachers and owners throughout our goddard experience, but especially during the pandemic. They have always taken infectious diseases seriously, which really helped us feel comfortable sending our child to school during covid-19. We have also been really impressed with the curriculum. Our child already knows how to write their name and the sign language was extremely helpful before they could talk.

Gwyn's Father

They take great care of our kids and keep them engaged. We feel like it’s a very safe and positive environment for our kids, and our kids learn so much while at school.
