  • Extremely happy with the adjustment my gs has made with school and staff. The outside learning/growing area a plus.

  • This is the best daycare. The teachers really love the children and teaching the children. They go above and beyond to ensure the kids are prepared for their next steps in life. Ms. Veronica always showed love and care and seemed to take a personal interest in my sons development. Mrs Lisa and Joe were so accommodating I felt as if they cared for my son personally. I love the goddard school, it's like a second home for my son. We will miss them graduating to kindergarten, they've been family for 2 years! Enrolling was the best decision for my son being an only child he developed so well and was challenged learning new things, being outdoors, learning team building and sports!

  • My daughter loves it here. Ms. Maddie has been a wonderful teacher to my toddler as well as other staff. Easy transition into childcare.

  • My children have attended the Goddard School for the past 4 years and the staff has been phenomenal! They are always looking for new and exciting ways to help the kids learn and grow and willing to make any accommodations they can to help the kids reach their full potential. Joe and Lisa have made this center a joy to send my kids to and truly care about all of the kids and families who come in the center.

  • Goddard (Newark) is a great daycare! They are clean and great with the kids! They are great at communicating with you about your little one because they know how important it is. Godard is not only a daycare but a place where my child can go every week and learn, have fun, and grow and play with their peers. if you're looking for a good place to take your little one, try them out they offer tours to make sure it's right for you! I absolutely love it here & they love my Lil Winter

  • Goddard in Newark is the perfect balance of school and family. The staff members genuinely care for children and become an extension of the family. My oldest started with Goddard at only three months. As a first time mom, sending my baby to school was terrifying, but the staff at Goddard put me at ease. The classrooms follow procedure, schedules and curriculum for even the youngest learners. More than that though, they took the time to build a relationship with my son and my family. We receive daily communication including pictures and updates throughout the day. After COVID hit, we kept my son out of daycare for 8 months, upon his return, Goddard went above the call of duty to support a smooth transition back to school. Now, my younger son is part of the Goddard family too. Once again, the team has embraced my baby and worked with me to support his school experience. Goddard is kid centered and it shows. Both my boys are happy and excited to go to school each day. This speaks volumes of the love and care they receive at Goddard.
