Goddard School

Our two children have attended Goddard from infancy till school age. My lawyer I'd trust with my sentence. My Doctor I'd trust with my diagnosis, but we've trusted Laura and Jackie and their staff with our children for six years, and they've always done beautifully. Academic preparation has been right on target for kindergarten. Our kids have enjoyed the program and feel like Goddard is their second home. more

My son started Goddard when he was 6 months old and just graduated from the Pre-school program in May 2010. The teachers are caring, interested in teaching and fun with the kids. And most of all he had lots of fun learning. We?ve had so many people tell us how well his vocabulary is for his age and they are also amazed at the topics of his conversations. Goddard helps prepare your child socially, both with other children as well as with adults, learning in a classroom environment, sharing and how to be a child and have fun!! Academically and socially my son is ready for his journey into kindergarten and we have the wonderful staff at Goddard to thank! I am so pleased with all his progress throughout his time at Goddard and glad he had the opportunity to attend such a fine school. more

All 3 of my kids attended when 3-6 years old. We also attended 2 other schools and used 2 private sitters depending on my work needs. Of the 5 day-cares used, Goddard was #2 on academics*, #1 on cost, #1 on flexibility, #1 management team and #1 fun. Pros: Flexible, Reasonable Cost, Great Start to Education, Fun Cons: A- on academics more

My son started at Goddard in their toddler class (Panda) when he was 15 months. I went and observed the class 4 times before starting him. The teachers are warm and caring, the curriculum is educational but also very fun, and my son has really enjoyed his time there. I have never worried that he wasn't getting the proper care and attention. One major difference from other daycares that I have toured is the enthusiasm of the teachers. They seem to truly enjoy and care about the kids, and they don't act as though taking care of them is just a job. I would highly recommend this school to anyone looking for excellent and education care for their toddler. more

We enrolled our son in preshool with high expectations based on the NAEYC accreditation. After the school initially lost our paperwork, we finally tracked down the right person and got him started. Pros: Nice playground; Can pack your kids lunch Cons: Very disappointed with teacher & owners response to issues more
