Ms. Wanda is so awesome with her students, including my son. At first, my son was having a very hard time adjusting to attending school. However, when he transferred to Ms. Wanda’s class, he wakes up every morning looking forward to attend school . She provides a calm, nurturing, and safe environment for all her students; as well fostering a warm learning environment. 💙 Also, Ms Shay is the an awesome director. She very intuitive with her staff and her students. 💙

After a long search for the right daycare for my son, The Goddard School at Shadow Creek was clearly the right choice. The staff is warm, friendly, and attentive they take the time to answer every question and make you feel at ease. The teachers are absolutely phenomenal, and my son has already learned so much since he started attending. I wouldn’t recommend any other school but this one!
