We were with Goddard for 3.5 years and absolutely loved it. I loved how incredibly kind and caring the staff are and how my kids were excited to go to school! There were days where it was a fight to get them to leave because they loved their teachers and friends so much. I love the curriculum and intentionality around teaching the kids. My kids would come home telling me about all they'd learned and want to keep exploring those topics. I also appreciate the cleanliness of the school. Compared to what I hear from other people and their daycare experiences, our kids were rarely sick due to the sanitization standards Goddard has. They made sure kids washed their hands all the time and that materials were clean. This helped so much and has also taught my kids great lessons on germs and the importance of washing their hands. During our time, we made amazing friends and they became a crucial part of our village. It was so hard leaving a wonderful place but our kids are so much better because of Goddard!
Annabel DoughertyJun 13, 2026The Goddard School has been truly wonderful for my family. The care that is provided is unmatched and I know they are loved each day when I drop them off and they run in with a smile and say hi to their Goddard Family. I couldn’t imagine sending them anywhere else!
Justine VerlacApr 15, 2026I would highly recommend this daycare to other families. The teachers and administrative staff truly know my child and meet her where she is, which makes her feel supported and understood every day. Communication is strong, and they genuinely feel like partners with us in caring for our child. They also receive feedback graciously and are willing to adjust based on it, which shows how much they value collaboration with families. It gives us a lot of confidence knowing our child is in such a thoughtful, responsive environment.
Alyson LarsonMar 6, 2026We could not be happier with our experience at The Goddard School. The teachers, staff, and leadership are truly wonderful! It's obvious how much they love what they do and genuinely care about the children. From the moment we toured the school, we knew it was the right place for our child, and that feeling has only grown stronger. Everyone is so kind, welcoming, and supportive, and the environment is warm and nurturing. Our child is so happy, comfortable, and well cared for, which means everything to us as parents. We are incredibly grateful and highly recommend this school to any family.
Tina ReadJan 28, 2026We have been at the Goddard school since August and it has been the BEST choice we have made. Moving here from out of state with a toddler who did not have to use childcare before was very scary but every member of this school has made it the best experience possible. From the first time we toured and met Brittany, we knew this was the place we wanted our daughter to be at everyday. No other daycare we toured even came close to how comfortable we would feel dropping her off there each morning. Miss Sarah, Mr Caleb and Miss Winter have been so incredible and welcoming and our daughter comes home each day talking about how much fun she has. Truly the best!
Ashley RineyNov 21, 2025We’ve only been at The Goddard School for a short time, but we have absolutely loved everything about it. The biggest blessing has been Miss Sarah — she has been incredible with our child. Her communication is outstanding, and she always seems to know exactly when to send an update or when our little one needs a bit of extra attention. The care and support she provides truly mean the world to us. We are so grateful to have found this school!
