- PBParvita Bhattacharya4 days ago5.0My son loves attending this daycare. He adjusted in less than a week - and now looks forward to going to school every morning. The teachers are amazing - especially Ms. Gianna who goes above & beyond! Ms. Dhwani (the owner) creates a fun & inclusive culture for everyone - with her fun initiatives like Parents' Appreciation Week, Holiday Activities etc!

- KKKeOct 30, 20255.0Before choosing The Goddard School of Indian Land, I toured many different daycares. After careful comparison, I decided to send my child here and I’m so glad I did! My child has been attending for three months, and we couldn’t be happier. The teachers and staff are kind, patient, and caring, and even the kids are so friendly and sweet. My child loves coming to school every day, and we’ve seen incredible growth in such a short time. We’re truly thankful for everything the teachers have done!
