- MKMerissa KaramOct 24, 20255.0My daughter has been attending the Goddard School since April 2025, and we have had nothing but wonderful experiences with both classrooms she has been in so far. Miss Lexie, Miss Haley, and Miss Anamika take excellent care of my daughter and inform us of big milestones and development that she has along the way. We can definitely tell her time at Goddard has made an impact from what we see at home daily. Thank you to the wonderful teachers in the Minnows and the entire Goddard School® for taking care of our girl.
- MTMT TaylorAug 25, 20255.0Our family has had a great experience with the Goddard in Marriottsville over the years. When a last-minute situation arose, Ms. Sheeba quietly moved mountains to ensure our child was set up for success, and the process was seamless. It reinforced what we already felt: excellent curriculum, caring staff, and exceptional service — definitely worth the wait.
- JGJahnavi GangarajuAug 15, 20255.0We truly appreciated the Goddard curriculum and the way the teachers treated every child with equal care and respect. Our child has shown remarkable growth in social communication—an essential skill that, in today’s world, often holds even greater value than academics.
- AAAlan & AliceJun 12, 20255.0We’ve had a wonderful experience at The Goddard School. Both of our kids attended and were well-prepared for kindergarten thanks to the caring teachers, daily enrichment activities, and structured environment. Ms. Sheeba, the owner, is incredibly hands-on and welcoming. She truly supports her staff, which is why so many stay long-term. We’re so grateful to be part of this amazing school community!
- BVB VJun 10, 20255.0We could not be happier with our experience at the Goddard School in Marriottsville. The entire school staff from the Owner to the Directors and Teachers are absolutely fantastic. We could not be more grateful for our child’s experience here…it has been tremendous.

Our busy toddlers flex their independence as they learn to walk, talk and safely explore the world around them. Their curiosity and interests drive the classroom structure.
In our preschool and pre-k classrooms, we add more school preparation and readiness by focusing on academic skills as well as interpersonal and collaboration skills. Teachers support children as they investigate the world around them. Children learn how to ask and answer questions, work with others, navigate social situations and understand and communicate their own thoughts and feelings.
Our teachers expertly create supportive classrooms for all children to safely learn and test new social, academic and physical skills throughout a typical routine that includes morning and afternoon snack time, lunch, naptime, exploration time, small and large group experiences and outdoor play.

To ensure the health and safety of everyone, if an outbreak occurs and a child has not been vaccinated, they will be asked to stay at home.

Please provide any necessary personal care supplies for your little one, such as diapers, wipes, a change of clothing and naptime bedding. For infants, please supply a crib sheet.
