- MHMelody HallOct 21, 20255.0I LOVE this school. My son and I started at Goddard about 2 years ago. We absolutely love all the teachers and our fabulous directors, Jessica and Kayla, and of course Marla, the on site owner. They are so tentative to each family and are always looking for ways to further the amazing experiences Goddard has to offer. As a parent I always feel heard when I have questions I have and know my child is always safe and loved. Working here and having my child attend Goddard proves to me that this isn’t just being at a preschool it’s truly is an amazing family. My son is constantly surprising me with all the things he is learning there and the curriculum is so much more than your average preschool. We both feel very loved at the end of each day. I 100% recommend this school to anyone.
- HCHayley ChapmanOct 20, 20255.0We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Goddard Wentzville. The staff are so caring and genuinely invested in the kids’ well-being and development. They’re always responsive and open to feedback, and it really shows that they care about making continuous improvements when concerns come up. The activities they plan are impressive, from magic shows and music concerts to petting zoos and even a bubble bus! The annual trunk-or-treat event is incredible, and the holiday parties and breakfast with Santa are absolutely adorable. The communication is excellent, and the security practices at the front desk give us such peace of mind every day. A huge thank-you to Ms. Jessica, the assistant director, for always listening, caring, and going above and beyond, and to Mr. Izzy, who has made such a positive difference in our 4-year-old’s growth and happiness while we’re at work. We feel so grateful to have found a place that’s not only safe and organized, but also full of joy, creativity, and heart. Highly recommend!

When you’re apart of the Goddard School Of Wentzville, the directors, the teachers and all the staff become family. My kids love every teacher they have ever had! The fun activities, daily updates and overall school structure make it easy to stay involved even as a working parent. Thank you for helping preparing my babies for the next chapter.

- MKMartin KacieOct 15, 20255.0Our son started at Goddard in Wentzville almost a year ago. We have had exceptional teachers and felt so welcome immediately. We toured a few different schools in the area and we immediately felt at home at Goddard. We absolutely love his teachers. Some shoutouts to Mr. Izzy, Miss Phoenix, Miss Bella, and Miss Micah. Our son loves Goddard!
- ESEmma StaggsOct 15, 20255.0We have had the BEST experience at this daycare! From day one, the staff has been so warm, welcoming, and genuinely caring. You can truly feel how much they love what they do, and as a parent, that means everything. Our son has already learned so much in the short time he has been there, not just academically, but socially and emotionally too. The communication is wonderful, the environment is safe and nurturing, and we feel completely at ease knowing he is in such great hands. I will be recommending this daycare to all of my friends. We are so grateful to be part of this community!
