- MBMonica BoleynSep 12, 20255.0An amazing school and program. All the teachers, staff, and owners are very hands on. Our child loved the school and all of the activities the school provided. We had him enrolled for close to 3 years and he was always happy to be there. He learned so much in his time there
- MGMichael & Briana GrantSep 8, 20255.0We absolutely loved our experience at this daycare! From day one, the staff made us feel welcomed and supported. My son’s teacher, Ms. Caroline, was truly amazing, caring, patient, and dedicated to helping him grow every single day. The director, Ms. Amy and owner, Mrs. Laura went above and beyond as well. They were always approachable, professional, and clearly invested in creating a safe and loving environment for the kids. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our son was not only well cared for but also learning and thriving. We’re so grateful to have found such a wonderful place!

- RDRosanne DininnoSep 4, 20255.0I have 3 kids in Goddard this summer, with 2 who have been coming here for school during the year as well. We have been a part of 5 of the 6 classrooms and my children LOVE all of their teachers. We love the curriculum and my children are thriving - it makes it very easy to love a place that your kids genuinely enjoy!
- JSJohn SaundersAug 23, 20255.0Our son attended The Goddard School for almost 2 years and we’ve had a tremendous experience. He’s been very happy and comfortable there and his overall development has been very clear. Regarding his teachers we loved them all especially the ones he had a close bond with. My wife and I enjoyed the environment immensely and our daily interactions with everyone there was always positive. A huge thank you to the leadership team and all Godard staff. An organization can not be great without great people and this is a truly great organization

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.
