We’re no longer at the Goddard School, but I wanted to take a moment to shout out teacher Patrick. While the school sometimes felt a bit disorganized from a leadership and staffing perspective, Patrick was absolutely incredible. He was professional, consistent, and genuinely cared for the children in a way that stood out. Our son asked for him every single day and was happiest when Patrick was in the room. When it came time to move to the next class, he didn’t want to leave. We are moving to a new school for various reasons but we are grateful for his patience and kindness.

Both of my kids have been a part of The Goddard School family, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. My elder one recently completed Pre-K here and moved on to kindergarten with so much confidence, thanks to the caring teachers and supportive environment. My younger one is still continuing, and every day I see the same warmth, love, and encouragement that helped my older child thrive.
The teachers and staff are incredibly kind, patient, and dedicated. They truly take the time to know each child and support them in their growth, while making learning fun and meaningful.

As a self-declared anxious and overprotective mom, finding a daycare/preschool for my child that is nurturing, educational, clean and organized was my top priority. Goddard Lynnwood is that. Their staff is so committed to providing a well-rounded educational experience to the students, they take all actions possible to maintain a clean and organized facility. And while a parent's nurture cannot be replaced, they do a fabulous job making a child feel special.
They have staff committed to developing plans for specific aspects from providing healthy/nutritious meals/snacks to a well-rounded & age-appropriate curriculm. Highly recommended!
