Carmel (West) 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.

The teachers and staff are very friendly and caring. I feel good every day dropping my son off knowing that he will be well-cared for and has a nurturing environment to learn.

Great preschool. Learning lots of things to set up for elementary school. Awesome staff, friendly and attentive. Clean facility.

Charlotte & Emilia's Mother

Preschool Classroom
Our son has some health-related challenges, and that impacts how and what he eats. Everyone at Goddard is more than supportive and willing to learn what they can do to make things easier and better for him. The attitude of everyone on staff is amazing. We were nervous when we moved to the area that we wouldn't be able to find a good place for him. We knew right away that we'd found the best place for him. He gets so excited to come to school, and I love seeing that.
