- BHBeth Hubbard4 days ago5.0We’ve had both of our daughters attend The Goddard School in some capacity, and our experience has been nothing short of amazing. The teachers are truly caring, patient, and engaged. The communication from staff is excellent, they keep us informed, supported, and involved. The curriculum is thoughtful and well-rounded. We’ve seen so much growth academically, socially, and emotionally in both kids from their time at Goddard. It’s clear the entire team is dedicated to creating a safe, positive, and nurturing environment. We highly recommend Goddard to any parent looking for a place they can trust.
- TVTyler ValladolidOct 20, 20255.0Our boys started Goddard this past March and it has been nothing but amazing for them. Lily, Ashley and Diane in the infant room truly care about each and every child. One of our sons has a disability and the way the teachers go above and beyond to make sure he has what he needs and is still able to participate in all of the activities is something that means the world to us. Miss Ashley and Miss Lily have gone above and beyond to take care of our little guys and the peace of mind we have leaving them in their care is priceless. If you are looking for a daycare where the teachers are truly invested in your children, Goddard is that place.
- RARebecca ArndtsOct 14, 20255.0The staff here is truly one of a kind. When we recently moved, we specifically didn’t move far so our kids could still go to this Goddard. The growth of our kids and relationships they formed with all of the staff has been very special. They’ve given our daughter extra attention when she was a baby with some health related things and have always been there supporting our kids and our family. I can’t thank the staff enough for all they do for our kiddos!!!
- CRChristine RitzenthalerOct 8, 20255.0We have been at Goddard on county line road for the past 4 years from infant care through preschool and have had such a positive experience. Ms. Ashley has been the primary teacher in the infant room for both of our children and she truly goes above and beyond caring for the babies as if they are her own. She has even called to check in when they have been out sick. Ms. Megan and Ms. Sara are a such wonderful team in the toddler room and it shows in the calmness of the room when I go to pick up. The float staff and teachers in other rooms know my children by name even if they haven’t been in their class. When I’ve had a concern it has been addressed quickly and efficiently. We receive multiple pictures through out the day and I always look forward to seeing them. I highly recommend them.
- EMErin MurphyOct 8, 20255.0We have been so grateful for the care and attention the Goddard staff has shown our family the last 2.5 years. With every class, we have been fortunate to form relationships with the teachers that continue even after the child has moved on, making each interaction in the hall, siblings classes, front office, etc. more fun and welcoming. We have always been able to tell that their diapers, or potty training, is being tended to often, and we're quick to hear of any incidents or noticeable discomfort they're exhibiting. We provide meals but love that the school can warm up items, and also provides nutritious snacks twice a day! I'm also impressed with how quickly my kids have learned new skills at every milestone. From learning to help, share, problem-solve, color, count, and beyond, they truly provide great guidance as early as the infant class! I'm grateful that our two kids can be together in one place and even get to see one another during the day. I highly recommend!
