- TRTarek Rahhal3 days ago5.0Our three-year-old son got sick for a couple of days and we kept him home, every morning he would wake up early, pick his clothes, fill his lunch box and call on us to take him to school! He has been learning a lot at miss Suha’s class, he loves his friends, and has had many great teachers in the last couple of years, to name a few: Ms Aryana, Ms Levya, ms Nada. His grandparents look forward to his daily activities email notifications, and ask him what he has learned. We are happy with the school administration, and the various fun activities they offer. Thank you for a great job
- KWKimberly Wallace3 days ago5.0I’ve had my 3 year old go to 3 different daycares and this one has been THE BEST!! The staff have been amazing and I can tell they really do go above and beyond for their kids. They are truly amazing and I’m VERY grateful for a positive daycare/school experience. THANK YOU 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼
- SHSakina Hasan3 days ago5.0Our son has been continuously thriving with each teacher. As a mom, that is reassuring to know each teacher there is a wonderful teacher. From the morning greetings, afternoon goodbyes, and the check ins in the middle I know my son is a caring, educational environment!
- DDDGJul 23, 20251.0Due to an unexpected job change, both of my children had to withdraw from the after-school program before completing 15 days. Since I was new to this country and believed that all official rules were followed, I thought they were entitled to keep the deposit. The deposits I paid for both of my children during registration were never refunded, and I was never informed about this in any way. Again, because I was new here and trusted that everything was done by the book, I assumed it was their right. However, nearly three years later, a staff member at the school admitted that the money was intentionally withheld and that no notification was ever given. You cannot raise children with good morals by deceiving people. Their only goal is to make more money. Stay away.
- CVChad VerdeJul 23, 20255.0We love that both of our kids are attending Goddard and they are both thriving! Our daughter just started infant class with Ms. V and hands down she’s the best! Ms. V is very intentional when doing stimulated activities with our daughter. It’s obvious that Ms. V is very passionate with what she does. She loves, cares, and is attentive with all babies in her classroom. We are so lucky and very happy that our daughter has Ms. V as her teacher because we know she’s getting the best care and will excel in learning new skills!
