At The Goddard School located in Redmond, 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.
Love the faculty, love the management, love their curriculum and I would never want to switch. Can’t recommend more to friends and family. We have been with a very renowned daycare chain in past but I feel more confident sending my lil one to this place. Thank you team for going above and beyond to make parents feel less worried

Everyone at the school has been immensely helpful. Our one year old started just a few months ago. As parents who are truly winging it, we have found solace through the caregivers at Goddard. We have been given limitless care, patience, and guidance concerning what on earth to do with a child when you feel like a child yourself.
Excellent communication. Clean and happy environment. Well organized. We even receive photos of our babe through the Goddard app.
Thank you to everyone at Goddard. We are highly looking forward to our journey with you.

Our son Benjamin started at The Goddard School when he was just over one year old, and now, at five, he's heading off to kindergarten. As excited as we are for this next chapter, it’s truly bittersweet to say goodbye to a place that has meant so much to our family.
Over the past four years, the teachers at Goddard have not only cared for Benjamin, but helped shape the amazing boy he is becoming. Through their patience, professionalism, and deep dedication, they’ve nurtured his growth into a responsible, curious, understanding, smart, and loving child. Every positive trait he exhibits today is, in some way, connected to the values and culture instilled at this school.
To all the incredible teachers: thank you. Thank you for putting your hearts into what you do every single day. You may not hear it often enough, but we want you to know how deeply grateful we are for your impact—not just on Benjamin, but on all the children and families lucky enough to walk through your doors. What you do is nothing short of extraordinary.
And a special thank you to Kalis, the owner, for creating such a strong, caring, and joyful environment. You've built a remarkable team and community. Our past four years at Goddard have been filled with warmth, growth, and peace of mind—and we can’t thank you enough for that.
With sincere gratitude,
Benjamin’s parents,
Sean and Lynn
