  •  Lindsay

    Lindsay

    Owner
    6 years ago, Lindsay needed childcare for her 6 month old son in order to finish her Master's degree internship. As a first time mom with high standards, she explored all of her options from nannies to other schools, but didn't feel at ease until she found a Goddard School. She just knew there was something very special; from the extra care the teachers took with their kiddos to the exceptional health & safety standards. That's where the journey began. Lindsay and Jonathan uncovered that Northwest Las Vegas needed a higher quality childcare option and moved here just to open a Goddard School. Lindsay's background is working with children and mental health. Her passion is to help kiddos thrive in a positive environment. Her Master's Degree is in Social Work & Bachelor's in Psychology. Lindsay's positive attitude is contagious and families feel comfortable approaching her. Lindsay is now a mom of 3 and being a mom is what she loves most.
