- MHMegan HombergOct 23, 20255.0We’ve had such a wonderful experience at The Goddard School of Naperville. The teachers are warm, patient, and genuinely care about each child. The communication with parents is excellent — we always know what they’re learning and how they’re doing. The classrooms are clean, bright, and full of creative activities. The safety here is next level — from secure entry and check-in to the way the staff keeps such a close eye on the kids. It’s clear they take every precaution seriously, and that gives us so much peace of mind. We couldn’t be happier and highly recommend The Goddard School of Naperville to any parent looking for a safe and nurturing place to learn and play!
- CHchad hombergOct 9, 20255.0We couldn’t be happier with the Decision to send our child here! With so many choices in the area, and many of them offering similaraties we believe we hit the jackpot with this school. The staff is incredible, the teachers are one of a kind and amazing with the kids, and the curriculum they have implemented has helped our child so much. I strongly recommend for any parents looking to at a minimum give them a look and walk through!
- DRDasha RhodesSep 9, 20255.0This school is the ABSOLUTE best! The care of the staff from the owner to the directors to the teachers to the support staff, are hands down the most incredible group I’ve encountered. My 2 y/o son has been at this location since April. He was at a different Goddard in another state. We first made contact with this school in December, virtually. They were so accommodating since it would be awhile before we could meet them in person. The school allowed me tour both of their campuses and handle the onboarding documents virtually. Then, once my son arrived the staff warmly embraced him. They were SO patient and encouraging of him given the transition. When there is an issue with my son or is facing challenges, they are very communicative and always responding in a way that supports him and ensures consistent response, safety, and empowerment at home and school. The staff truly works with you to ensure the best for the kiddos. It’s easy to see that they all deeply care about the children. Teachers know all students even those who are not in their assigned class. You can easily walk down the hallway and the staff greets your child by name. Additionally, you get care/update calls at your determined frequency to learn of your child’s progress. Today, I received a call that wasn’t at my scheduled care call time to inform me that they noticed a difference in my son today. This immensely warmed my heart because it shows how attentive they are. They were right to notice the change as we’ve had a change in schedule, and our routine was altered. Additionally, I love the structure and curriculum. The teachers also will tweak activities to fit your child’s learning interest. I feel my son is learning a lot and a bit more advance than his peers outside of Goddard. Lastly, the school is very collaborative in its approach in caring for your child as much you like to be involved. The staff truly cares for their students—I can’t stress that enough. I have nothing but great things to say about the school, our family loves it!
- KAKhemjira AntonyJul 23, 20255.0Love this school! My son has been learning so many things. The teachers (Ms. Naszira and Ms. Marabel) are very nice and helpful. They are helping potty training my son (within the 1st week) that I am very happy of.
- MKMarilyn KalayilAug 7, 20145.0Our son has been attending Goddard school since he was 18 months old until recently at the age of 2 1/2. Our experience at this school has been nothing short of AMAZING! His first two teachers, Ms. Marissa & Ms. Brittney are two of the most loving, caring, patient teachers we have ever met! They made his transition to a new school flawless! At the age of two, he moved into a new classroom with Ms. Kristan & Ms. Carrie. My Husband and I will forever be grateful to these two! They helped our son transition through many changes such as switching to full day school, potty training, and even preparing him for his new role as Big Brother! They are both so compassionate, nurturing, and have such an abundant wealth of knowledge! And it is very obvious that they love their jobs! We are so amazed at how much our son has grown academically and socially since attending Goddard! We are beyond sad that we had to leave Goddard (moved out of the area) but keeping our fingers crossed that life will bring us back to the Naperville area so we can enroll our son at Goddard again, and hopefully our second son as well! Goddard school and their staff really set the bar high for top notch schools in the western suburbs!
