- DSdeepak shakyaAug 29, 20255.0We tried Goddard for our 4 year old after experiencing 2 others and are nothing but amazed by the program Goddard offers. He is learning a lot and talks about all the development activities that are carried out in the day. His resistance to go to daycare has also subsidized a lot and replaced by excitement for what could be happening at school today. He talks about magicians at school, zoo keepers and a lot of other fun stuff. Goddard is the best with the program they offer for a child's early development. Teachers are amazing. Highly recommended!

- SGSergiu GafencoJun 16, 20255.0We’ve had such a wonderful experience with The Goddard School in Schaumburg—it truly deserves a 5-star review! From the very beginning, the staff has been warm, friendly, and professional, creating a positive and nurturing atmosphere for both of my kids. What stood out to me was the exceptional quality of teaching. My daughter thrived there years ago, and now, six years later, my son has had the same excellent teacher, which speaks volumes about the school’s consistency and staff retention. It’s a great place not just for children, but for educators to grow and stay long-term. The management team is charming and supportive. They made every milestone memorable, especially the graduation, which was a truly fantastic experience for our family. The curriculum is both fun and educational. My son, in particular, loved the Spanish and music classes, and I’m beyond impressed by how quickly he picked things up—he can now count and speak in Spanish with confidence! We’re so grateful to the entire Goddard Schaumburg team for the care, dedication, and love they pour into everything they do. Highly recommend to any parent looking for a top-tier early education experience!
