- GSGina StewartNov 11, 20255.0My daughter has been with Goddard - Middle River for over 2 years and we have been very happy with the care she receives. The educational program has been excellent and we receive daily pictures of her participating in activities and enjoying herself. She has formed relationships with both teachers and classmates and always tells me she had a good day. The teachers have been very supportive and have worked alongside us to potty train our daughter. The teachers do not have an easy job and we truly appreciate them each day. Special shout out to Ms. Carissa and Ms. Maryanne!
- AHAnitra HNov 10, 20255.0The Goddard School has been such a huge part of our family’s life. We are so grateful for the care and attention each of our children has received — and continues to receive — from the most amazing, sweet, and nurturing teachers. I love that the teachers treat our children as if they were their own; that means so much to us. Our kids are always so excited to go to school, and we can’t thank The Goddard School enough for all that they’ve done for our family.
- KCkelly cedenoOct 10, 20255.0Hands down BEST pre school in middle river. Even their snack and personalized education plans reflect how passionate they are about children.
- KBKenerah BaulAug 13, 20255.0My son started last year and we absolutely LOVE this school, no complaints! The teachers actually take the time out to TEACH the children, and make sure they understand. They work WITH parents if your child is potty training, they keep the child's belongings together in their own little assigned cubby, and they let you know if they need an extra change of clothing. They basically keep you up to date 24/7 regarding your child/children. My son has learned so much in the past year then he did at the other school he was enrolled in. This place is a breath of fresh air! My son made friends and he loves his teachers. Ms. Abby, Ms. Tatia (I might spelled it wrong) and Mr. Zach is all my son talks about 😊
- TCThomas CarrJul 10, 20255.0Pleasant and positive. Great socialization prior to kindergarten. The structure in the learning lessons is fun, engaging, age appropriate and stimulating. My child comes home with new ideas and skills. Water day is a big hit in the summer. The effort that goes into special events like Halloween is demonstrative of how much the faculty and community care about making memories at the Greenleigh Goddard. The kids are kids, and through this school I've watched my tiny human become a better version of herself. It's been a safe place for her to grow, learn, make mistakes, and keep on trucking. 💯 Highly recommend.
