Wonder of Learning™

Our exclusive education program designed to embrace how children learn best - through curiosity.

What if education was free to wonder?

Wonder of Learning is the most innovative and well-rounded early childhood education program, created by award-winning early childhood development experts. We empower children to explore their curiosity and ask questions while teachers serve as guides, helping them discover their extraordinary potential.

We absolutely love and trust Goddard. The teachers are wonderful and foster a warm and loving environment. The owners and directors do a great job of supporting the teachers and making sure they are appreciated. We are very happy with the school.

Wonder of Learning by The Goddard School

Between the ages of 2 and 5, children ask an average of 40,000 questions. Goddard helps them find the answers. 

Why do children have so many questions? 

90% of a child's brain development happens before age 5. Curiosity fuels their growth.

Children are naturally scientific, taking a keen interest in their surroundings and testing ideas through play. Our education program offers 52 weeks of lessons, each tailored to your child’s individual questions and interests.

Our daughter is so excited to walk into school every morning and can’t wait to tell us all about her day when she gets in the car to go home. She is genuinely happy there and we can tell that her teachers are equally happy to have her too. We’ve noticed huge advancements in her cognitive abilities and social skills since joining Goddard and we credit the amazing staff and leadership.

Through activities like movement, music, yoga, art and outdoor learning, children enjoy days filled with excitement while developing skills for our changing world.
