As a first-time mom, leaving my baby at daycare was the hardest things I’ve ever had to do. We actually transferred our daughter to Goddard after only two weeks at another daycare because we were seeing too many red flags and knew in our hearts it wasn’t the right fit for our 3-month-old. From the moment we joined Goddard, we felt the difference. The communication has been outstanding, the updates and pictures throughout the day give us so much peace of mind, and the consistency of care has been incredible. A special thank you to Miss Caylee, Miss Tayler, and Miss Marsha. They have treated our daughter with so much love, patience, and care. It’s obvious they genuinely enjoy what they do, and it means the world to us knowing our baby is in such wonderful hands every day. We also can’t say enough good things about Jennifer, the owner, and Lucy, the director. They have been welcoming, supportive, and truly invested in creating a positive environment for both the children and their families. What started as a very stressful transition quickly turned into one of the best decisions we’ve made. We feel completely comfortable leaving our daughter each day, and that’s something every parent hopes for. We are so grateful to have found The Goddard School and would highly recommend it to any family looking for exceptional childcare.
Cally LowenthalJun 16, 2026Excellent care of our little here! Night and day difference to our first experience with another daycare. The teachers truly care for ours like their own.
JMay 11, 2026We have had a great experience at the Goddard School of Waunakee. It was important to me to find a preschool experience for our child that focused on play and curiosity, and so far we have not been disappointed. Ms. Gabby has done a great job creating fun, student-led learning experiences for the preschoolers. The facility is always clean, and the staff is always warm and friendly.
AndreaApr 14, 2026We have been so impressed with our experience so far at the Goddard School of Waunakee for our two enrolled children. As a family who has had exposure many different daycare environments and settings for our kids (large, small, "premium", specialized, urban, rural, etc.), I can truly say this is absolutely the best daycare experience we have ever had. We cannot speak highly enough to the level of professionalism and attention the Owner Jennifer, Director, Lucy, and every member of the staff have taken since opening late last year to ensure our kids are not only safe and well cared for but get to experience a fun, enriched learning environment every day they are there. Both of our kids love "their Goddard School" and we are extremely proud to be one of the founding families. Would highly recommend to anyone in the area looking for exceptional child care with a community feel and truly kind, passionate staff!

Questions parents ask about THE GODDARD SCHOOL OF WAUNAKEE
Is THE GODDARD SCHOOL OF WAUNAKEE a licensed child care provider in Wisconsin?
- THE GODDARD SCHOOL OF WAUNAKEE holds Wisconsin licence 5000593435-001, listed as "LICENSED" by the Wisconsin Department of Children and Families in Dane County, licensed since 2025-10-23. Confirm current standing on the state's provider search at childcarefinder.wisconsin.gov before enrolling.
What is THE GODDARD SCHOOL OF WAUNAKEE's YoungStar rating?
- The directory shows no YoungStar rating for THE GODDARD SCHOOL OF WAUNAKEE. YoungStar participation is not universal, so a provider without one has not been rated rather than been rated badly, and it is licensed and regulated either way.
What are THE GODDARD SCHOOL OF WAUNAKEE's hours?
- The state directory lists 07:00 AM-06:00 PM, Jan-Dec, full time. Wisconsin records the daily window but not which days it applies to, and hours change without the licence record changing, so call ahead.
What ages does THE GODDARD SCHOOL OF WAUNAKEE take?
- The licence covers 6 weeks to 5 years 11 months. That is the span Wisconsin licenses the provider for, not a list of the rooms it runs, so ask which age groups it is actually staffing.
Does this page show inspection results for THE GODDARD SCHOOL OF WAUNAKEE?
- No. Wisconsin publishes licensing violations for each provider, and none of them are included here, so nothing on this page reflects THE GODDARD SCHOOL OF WAUNAKEE's inspection history either way. Read the violation record on the state's provider search at childcarefinder.wisconsin.gov.
