- RMRebecca McKibbenOct 15, 20255.0Goddard has provided our child (3) with a top notch education! Not only is our child far ahead, but she has been given the gift of the love of learning! We are so thankful for Goddard and their caring/attentive/all of the best adjectives staff! Our child has loved every one of their teachers the past 2 years. We wish we could keep both of our children here for years to come! Thank you Goddard!
- AMAmber MaracciniOct 15, 20255.0Joining The Goddard School in Reno has been, without question, the best decision my husband and I have made for our family. The directors and teachers don’t just educate and care for our three boys every day—they’ve truly taken our whole family under their wing. Through this school, we’ve found more than early childhood education—we’ve found a community. As a proud member of the Parent Advisory Council, I’m deeply grateful for the thoughtful events and connections The Goddard School fosters among families. Having meaningful ways to stay connected to the broader Goddard community has been such a gift for us.
- SFSara FiannacaSep 19, 20255.0We love The Goddard School! The teachers are caring, communicative, and truly invested in the kids. Our children feel supported both academically and socially, which has been so important to us. We also appreciate the strong focus on security, it gives us peace of mind every day. Having classes through 2nd grade is a huge benefit because it provides consistency and stability during those early years when kids thrive on routine and familiar faces.
- JJJustinAug 21, 20255.0The Goddard team is a kind, caring, and compassionate group of incredible individuals. The thoughtful leadership Denise provides each day shines through in the actions and dedication of the entire staff.
