- DDDarren DonovanAug 12, 20255.0If your looking for someplace for your child to grow, feel safe and welcomed, and thrive in a social and educational environment, then Goddard of White Marsh is the best of the best. The staff, from the owner to the front desk, to all the teachers and helpers are amazing. The teachers are responsive and update daily, the focus on the kids and classroom is 2nd to none. They are attentive and remember the details of the kids and foster a stimulating environment for the young ones to grow both mentally and socially. The front end staff is phenomenal, always cheerful and attentive and willing to help. The owner Krystle is great, always helpful and responsive, she takes her time to make sure you feel a part of the Goddard family. Any questions or problems I had were addressed quickly and resolved to great satisfaction. Even though my kids are moving on to grade school I will continue to use Goddard for their summer program as my kids absolutely love it here. I cannot thank them enough for all they have done and continue to do. Finding a place that you can trust and feel comfortable leaving the most valuable thing in your life can be hard and overwhelming, but as soon as you come and see the school ,meet the staff, you, like myself, will find that Goddard of White Marsh is the one and only spot for the future of your kids.
- JOJames OttingerAug 11, 20255.0The Goddard School of White Marsh has been an incredible experience for our family and friends! From the moment we did our first tour (our son was only 8 weeks old) we were greeted with warmth and kindness. Our son graduated Pre-K a few years ago and now attends the School Age Summer Camp and he still comes home excited to tell us about his new adventures. We've attended The Goddard School of White Marsh now for 9 years and their dedication to safety and education still stands as strong. Although we've loved all our teachers, a few stand out the most. Ms. Ashley B, was the strong whole for our confidence when we front dropped our baby off. Ms. Kristy taught our boy to walk and talk. Ms. Kelsey taught our son the true meaning of excitement about learning. These three ladies (and so many more) are the reason our son is in GT classes! Thank your Goddard School for nurturing his love for learning and building his social skills. Also, big shout out to the office staff! Your everyday guide still keeps us going! Ms. Krystle knows county schools better than we do!
- NBNana BoatengNov 13, 20245.0My experience at the Goddard School has been outstanding. My son is in the Calicos classroom, and I couldn’t be happier with the care and attention he receives every day from Miss Amy and Miss Tyler. For the past 2 weeks he has constantly been asking me “I wanna go to Miss Tyler” each time he gets picked up from school, and as a parent that warms my heart. Both teachers are incredibly nurturing, always making sure each child feels comfortable, engaged, and included. They provide a safe and stimulating environment that encourages learning and social development. My son has made noticeable progress with his social skills and has grown more confident each day, thanks to the positive atmosphere and structured activities. Communication with parents is excellent; the daily reports, feedback, and pictures through the Hub helps me feel connected to his day, even when I’m not around. I am grateful to the wonderful staff for creating a warm and welcoming space for my son. I will highly recommend this school to any parents looking for a daycare that combines care with education!
- SJSarah JacobSep 10, 20245.0Everyone from the staff at the front desk to the teachers have been accommodating and kind. They show us that our child is their priority. Would 10/10 pick the Goddard School White Marsh again any day.
- DKDustin KluttzJun 1, 20215.0Fantastic school with great teachers and dedicated owners. My son went here and absolutely loved the experience. He started kindergarten well ahead of his peers and has maintained a love of learning throughout his school years (he is going to be 10 soon). When my son started school, Krystle was the manager and I think Dave was the owner. By the time he graduated, Krystle had become a partner in the school and I think it was a great choice. I am now searching for a school for my 2 year old daughter, we have moved across town so White Marsh is so far, but I am still considering the hour drive each way, which is saying something.
