- JPJason POct 28, 20255.0We entrusted one kid to them, and our second will be attending here too come next year! We love the teachers here!
- TDTara DeLorenzoOct 22, 20255.0Couldn’t recommend more. In 8 years I’ve had 5 kids here in daycare, pre-k and summer camps. The teachers are great and the owners are so kind. However, it is the directors Nicole and AnneMichelle for me. They are organized, responsive and professional all while being so NICE! Most important it’s Clean. The building and classrooms never smell like “kids” (if you’ve been to other daycares you know what I mean). I’ve tried other schools throughout the years and have always come back.
- SSSevil SeitablaevaJul 15, 20255.0Our child was really happy in Goddard school Montville. She misses her teachers a lot. I value her achievements in English and social skills. Highly recommend!
- NLNathan LaBarbaJun 20, 20255.0Very positive experience so far after 2+ months. Would recommend Goddard School in Montville to anyone looking for high quality childcare for infant-preK.

In each classroom, we provide hands-on, playful, child-centered learning experiences that vary based on the children’s levels of development. Teachers help children grow into happy, healthy, intelligent little humans who are ready to take on the world around them.
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.

Can any of the families in the School opt out of vaccinating their children?
In many states, children who are not vaccinated because of exemptions based on medical condition or sincerely held religious beliefs attend The Goddard Schools. If your child is not vaccinated, please contact the owner of The Goddard School to inquire as to whether exemptions may apply as not all exemptions are recognized in every state. 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.
What supplies do I need to provide for my child?
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.
