At The Goddard School located in Katy (Cinco Ranch), we're more than just a daycare. The Goddard School is a private preschool, offering childcare to infants and toddlers to pre-k. Our programs are designed to nurture each child's curiosity in a safe and caring environment.
The other day, out of the blue, my recently-turned 4-year-old started reading letters and sounding out simple words to me. I didn't know he could read letters, much less sit quietly in a seat for an activity for more than 30 mins. That is the magic of Ms. Caitlyn, Ms. Leah and Ms. Dani. The combination of teachers at this school is magically. They have taught my son to do extraordinary things since he started attending this school only 6 months ago. Thank you, thank you, thank you to Goddards amazing teachers and staff. Best choice we could have made to send our son here.

The infant room at Goddard Cinco Ranch was amazing. Miss Margarita and Miss Carlina are the best teachers! My son thrived during his time there. We would have not left if we didn’t move from the Katy area. I would highly recommend this daycare, especially the infant room!
