Owner
"We believe our school should provide the most hospitable, most enriching, and most welcoming haven for our children, their families, and our staff.” This is the mission statement specially crafted by “Ms. Jodi” & “Mr. Bill”, as they developed their plans to open The Goddard School in Bala Cynwyd. "Opening our school has been the adventure of a lifetime, and the most rewarding aspect is the community of children, staff, and families that has developed so organically. We believe in and strive for exemplary communication, academic excellence, and fostering the purest of environments," reports Mr. Bill. Ms. Jodi & Mr. Bill are parents to three 20-somethings, and they are celebrating 27 years of marriage. "Parenthood, itself, has provided the biggest preparation for our administrative and proprietorial responsibilities." When personal time permits, you will likely find Ms. Jodi on a golf course and find Mr. Bill behind a drum set. "Welcome, one and all, to our school!"

I always feel safe with my child at the Goddard school. My son is far more advanced with knowledge he learns at Goddard, than other children his age. We love the daily pictures we get showing the things our son is doing and learning.
Joseph 's Mother
Junior-K Classroom
Amazing staff and amazing new facility. My 20 month old comes home telling me about new numbers and shapes he’s learned at Goddard. It’s incredible.
Rowan & Reilly's Mother
Junior-K Classroom
They provide a fun and educational learning experience for our son. They have lots of special events that include music, art, science, etc and provide detailed information throughout the day about how our child is doing. It has been a great experience.

LEARNING YOUR CHILD LOVES

We work tirelessly to ensure children thrive in a healthy, safe and warm environment. Within this secure and nurturing environment, children can discover their unique gifts.

Our programs go beyond academics and help children develop important social-emotional skills like kindness, empathy, responsible decision making and more.  

In our classrooms, creativity and curiosity blossom as children discover the wonder of learning. Through fun learning experiences (F.L.EX.®), your child will develop academic and social-emotional skills that will help them feel ready to take on the world.
