The Goddard School

After researching and touring the top daycare schools in the area, we decided upon this particular Goddard School and have been very happy, so far. The Director and staff are so kind and the staff is always willing to go above/​beyond when our son needs some extra care. We would definitely recommend this Goddard location.

Great school. My daughter attended a Goddard school in Arizona and it was not as advanced in education as this school. People are very friendly and attentive to my child. I’ve shown up at different times unexpectedly to make sure that my child is happy and cared for. Great school. 5 stars!

I love everything about the Goddard School. My son s teachers are very nurturing and knowledgeable, the front office staff is so helpful and very nice, and the owner is involved and interested in constantly improving the school. It is the perfect place to send a little one. At first, I was so apprehensive about sending my 3 month old baby to daycare, but my worries disappeared on the first day we dropped him off. He has been there for almost 7 months now, and he is happy every day when we drop him off, and he is happy every day when we pick him up. He has fun, he loves the teachers, and they do the coolest things with him! Yoga, art projects, sign language, story time, outside play time, learning about music, other cultures and languages, the list goes on and on. They also work on developmental milestones with him, like sitting, holding a bottle, feeding himself, clapping, waving, crawling, standing, walking, etc.

My kids had gone to an in-​home daycare for all of their lives — 4.5 years and 2 years. The transition for them was extremely hard, especially for my oldest son who is very shy and cautious. The director (s), owner, and teachers were ALL involved with helping my son cope with the change. This lasted for a long 6 months, but no one ever made me/​us feel like we were being a burden. Everyone at the school is friendly, nurturing, and patient.
The tuition may seem high, but the structure and education the kids receive is far greater than any other pre-​school I visited and/​or compared to schools my friends send their kids to. The thing that took the most getting used to was packing a lunch everyday. The school provides am/​pm snack and there is pizza on Fridays (for an add’l charge — $ 1/​slice). There are some added costs for things such as Playball — the once a week health and sport class; or summer camp ($ 100 for the summer), but it isn’t unreasonable. The school also encourages parents to participate in many special activities, including holiday parties, BBQs, pot lucks, and fairs. There isn’t anything negative I can say about the school or the people who work there.
