- TJTony Jarbou5 days ago5.0We cannot say enough good things about The Goddard School of Novi! From day one, the staff has been warm, professional, and deeply committed to our child’s growth and happiness. The curriculum is clearly well-thought-out and engaging, and our little one comes home excited about what they did that day. We’ve seen tremendous development, both socially and academically in a safe, nurturing environment. The facility itself is clean, bright, and designed with children in mind, and we feel confident knowing that safety measures like secure entry and attentive supervision are in place. The educators know each child individually and take the time to partner with families, we always feel welcomed and informed. Choosing this school has been one of the best decisions for our family. If you’re looking for a preschool/day-care in the Novi area that truly cares about your child and their whole-child development, we wholeheartedly recommend The Goddard School of Novi (13 Mile and M-5)

For infants, we follow the care schedule set by your family and utilize personal care moments to connect with and expand your little one’s individual development. Our teachers also incorporate songs, finger play, books and sensory and physical exploration each day.
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.

In many states, children who are not vaccinated because of exemptions based on medical condition or sincerely held religious beliefs attend The Goddard Schools.

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.
