The Goddard School has been such a welcoming and nurturing environment for our son! The involvement and communication from everyone from the owners to the directors to the teachers has been wonderful.

The best!!! The staff feels like family, communication is wonderful, and they are always organized and willing to help in any way. The place is clean, everyone seems to have a sense of humor (necessary in dealing with these babies!), and the best part is that our baby girl LOVES going there everyday and learns so much!!! We know she is taken care of wonderfully and it's a blessing to not worry AT ALL about her throughout the day. Thank you!! :)

What Teachers Mean to Me

Every member of the Goddard faculty has special, often extraordinary, gifts they share with their students. When a child comes home happy and can't wait to see their teacher the next day, tell us about it. Take this moment to celebrate your child's teachers!

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.
