- ELErin LovelienNov 4, 20255.0The Goddard School truly is an extension of our family unit. The environment itself is clean, welcoming, and warm. The teachers and staff elevate the experience not just by showing up everyday and giving their job the best that they can, but by simply being themselves. The staff here are passionate about what they do and they care about your child as though they are their own. Our daughter transitioned into daycare seamlessly after day two because of how experienced the team is and how joyful they make morning drop-off experiences. Our entire family thrives because of Goddard. I honestly don't know where we would be without them.
- TDThe Little Yoga DenSep 11, 20255.0I don't have a child that attends this location, but I own a company that has partnered with the school for over a year. They are absolutely wonderful to work with - organized, communicative, and so kind. We bring yoga classes into this location which shows how much they care about their kids and value the families they have.
- KPKhanh PantelisJul 22, 20255.0The Goddard School of Reynoldsburg is a fantastic daycare with exceptional teachers. Our daughter started in the preschool class when our son started in the infant room and we have nothing but wonderful things to say about their experiences. The teachers work closely with our children and meet them at their level, providing them activities that will challenge them to explore and grow. When our son was going through physical therapy (PT), his caring teachers made sure to implement those exercises in his daily care, helping him to graduate from PT on time. There are a few parent-teacher conferences throughout the year and it's the perfect time to review your child's current progress, set achievable goals, and how growth can be encouraged at school and at home. Both of our kids love being at this school and they feel safe in the care of their teachers. My daughter had issues with a fellow classmate and after discussing with her teachers, they worked with the students to learn boundaries and respect, which helped to resolve their differences quickly. Communication in person, via phone, and through the school's app is always easy and quick. There are plenty of family events throughout the year and they do their best to celebrate your child for their birthdays. We have been extremely blessed to find a great fit for our children.
- SJShelby JovonnaJul 21, 20255.0Our daughter, Rael, has been attending Goddard since she was just 6.5 months old, and we could not be more grateful for the care, structure, and love she has received over the years. From the very beginning, the staff at Goddard made us feel confident that we were leaving her in the best possible hands—and that trust has only grown stronger with time. Rael has flourished in every developmental area since starting at Goddard. Her language skills began blossoming early, and she was speaking in full sentences well before we expected. Socially, she has become incredibly empathetic, expressive, and confident, which we attribute to the positive, nurturing environment and thoughtful curriculum. We’ve also been so impressed with how her curiosity and love for learning have been encouraged through play-based academics, themed projects, and hands-on discovery. The facility itself is exceptional—clean, secure, and designed with a child’s development and safety in mind. Each classroom is bright and welcoming, with age-appropriate learning materials and engaging activities. Communication from the staff is consistent and thorough, giving us daily updates on her progress, meals, naps, and the fun she’s having. What truly sets Goddard apart, though, is the quality of the teachers. They treat each child with such patience, kindness, and respect. Rael absolutely adores her teachers and looks forward to school every day. As working parents, there’s no better feeling than knowing your child is thriving in a place that feels like an extension of home. We are so thankful to the Goddard team for helping shape Rael into the bright, happy, and thriving little girl she is today. This school has been a blessing for our entire family.
