THE GODDARD SCHOOL OF CHADDS FORD

I've had a wonderful experience with TGS Chadds Ford as a parent of children in both the infant and toddler rooms. The teachers are caring, patient, and truly invested in each child's growth and development. They were incredibly helpful during the potty-training process, making it a positive experience for both my child and our family. Everyone on staff is warm, welcoming, and genuinely cares about the children. Communication is excellent. The app makes it easy to stay connected throughout the day with updates, photos, and information about meals, naps, and activities. The variety of activities they offer is amazing. The children get to participate in sports, yoga, music, and many other engaging, age-appropriate experiences that keep them active and learning. It's clear that the staff puts a lot of thought into creating a fun, nurturing, and enriching environment. I highly recommend this daycare to any family looking for a place where their child will be well cared for and encouraged to thrive.

We have sent all three of our boys to this Goddard location, and we continue to have a great experience. Even after moving further away, we decided it was worth the extra drive to keep our youngest here. Our oldest has now moved on to elementary school, and we feel he was perfectly set up for success thanks to his time here. Excellent school and wonderful staff!

We started at Goddard in 2022, with our oldest. We had a fantastic experience, so when we had a second child, we were thrilled he could also go to Goddard. When we had medical complications with our younger child, the Goddard staff (Miss Rachel and Carrie in the 2 year old room) helped preserve a sense of stability for our oldest. When my younger child was delayed in hitting his milestones (due to those medical complications), the staff at Goddard (specifically Miss Sam, in the infant room) helped get him back on track: he went from being 4 months behind (at 5 months old) to hitting all of his milestones early or on time (at 2.5 years old). Our oldest child is 4, and thanks to the fantastic preschool teachers can write and recognize letters and is using phonics to start spelling and sounding out words (as an example, he will ask if popsicle starts with a P because it starts with a p-sound). He will be attending kindergarten at Goddard in the fall, and we are excited to see how much he learns.

My son has been going to the Goddard School for a year and a half, since he was 12 months old. I have nothing but positive things to say about all aspects of the school. The staff makes us feel so welcomed and are super attentive, caring, and hold the best interest of the child. The curriculum is very effective and well structured. Our overall experience has been excellent. We love our Goddard family!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about the Goddard School. Both of my daughters started there as toddlers, and the teachers and staff have been an extension of our family ever since. From the very beginning, I felt such peace knowing they were in a safe, loving, and nurturing environment. Over the years, the Goddard team has played such a huge role in my girls’ growth and development, not only academically, but socially and emotionally too. They were there for all the milestones, big and small, helping guide my children through every stage of early childhood with patience, encouragement, and care. The curriculum is thoughtfully designed, sparking curiosity and a true love of learning, but what has always impressed me most is the personal attention and genuine warmth the teachers show every single day. My daughters built strong foundations in kindness, confidence, and independence, and I truly credit the staff for helping shape them into the amazing young people they are becoming. Looking back, I am so grateful for the years we spent at the Goddard School. They didn’t just care for my childre, they helped me raise them, and for that I will always be thankful. ❤️
