Arvada (Ward Road) Reviews & Recognition

The love and commitment of our Goddard families inspires us every day. To help make each child’s learning experiences the best they can be, we are always happy to listen when parents share their expectations. Here’s what our families have to say.

My husband and I have been very happy with this Goddard. We were a bit nervous putting our daughter in a "daycare" setting, but this is so much more than that. Our daughter has thrived both socially and intellectually thus far. It is a homey feeling when you walk in the front door and are immediately greeted by the owner and director every morning. The facility is top-notch, and the teachers are amazing. It has greatly exceeded our expectations.

I love the teachers, owners, and staff! The facility is bright, clean, and I feel like my child is safe there. I love how they will change my daughters clothes even if she’s the slightest bit dirty. I can tell they really do care about her and take pride in their work. I hope the teachers are being paid well! They have made such a difference for our daughter!!
