I will provide a completely honest and unbiased review of the Goddard School located in Fort Wayne,…read moreIN. It is a small school that accepts students in kindergarten as well. This was the reason I chose this school over others in the area. No doubt, it's expensive, but the administration is phenomenal. They are hard-working and always willing to help both the parents and the kids. They communicate effectively and engage constantly with the parents. The owners are outstanding. They are approachable and fully involved in the administrative and managerial aspects of the school. Unfortunately, the kindergarten program at this school is well below expectations. This is due to the unprofessional attitude of the lead teacher. She lacks proper teaching skills, and her attitude towards the children is concerning. She shouts at the kids, and several parents are starting to realize that her actions are damaging and negatively affecting young minds. At times, her tone is threatening, and her behavior does not align with the vision of Goddard School. Simply put, the atmosphere in that class isn't safe for the children, and without delay, the administration must take appropriate corrective actions to stabilize the situation.I am also planning on contacting the Indiana ED to investigate this sensitive matter. For this reason, I am giving the school only 2 stars. I request that the administration proactively look into this situation and work to provide the kindergartners with a safe and secure environment in which they can thrive.

Due to jobs we have done A LOT of travel, and thus multiple states and multiple childcare facilities (4 not including Goddard). Ms. Anu and Ms. Seik in Monkey's are an amazing team their communication to each other and to our children is so respectful! You can tell they adore the children. Their communication with parents is so refreshing! Goddard is exceptional at pickup for communication, from the teachers to the administrators ( Jess and Jenna). And you can tell they are intentional and work on improving ( including administration)! As we moved up to the next age group, Ms.Quinn in Bears has a heart for children! She loves what she does and her room is calm and so respectful to each individual child. ( I've learned many a parenting tricks/ guidance from her) My FAVORITE part about Ms.Quinn is how observant she is, we receive positive notes about our child regularly. I feel like she sees our child's full and beautiful personality! Four year classroom - (Giraffe room)we had a rough start due to Goddard trying to find the right fit. Props to them, they identified the hurdles and actively worked on them and communicated those changes frequently, with successful outcomes. (Obviously I communicate, and that's a two way street) now we have aged up to Kangaroos with Ms. Chelsi/Ms. Michaela and they are PHENOMENAL! Amazing co- teaching! Again, OUTSTANDING COMMUNICATION, in addition to the constant feedback we get from their internal app! You can tell they care and pay attention to each of their students! Thank you for such a positive experience! I will say you will see subs occasionally, and that's just the nature of childcare, and we have seen less turnover here than previous centers!

As parents, we all want the best for our children. We do our best teaching them how to speak, walk,…read moreeat, all the basics, and man does that take a lot of time and effort! So, when they get to the usual "school age", we all have to trust the teachers to continue the hard work that we have done since day 1. When I started looking into schools, I was very unimpressed by the selection that I had. I had toured 4 schools in the Fort Wayne area and not one stuck out to me. They were all the run of the mill, boring, mundane schools that focused on just getting through the day instead of really challenging the children... until I found Pine Hill. Just looking at their website got me excited! The amazing trips they went on, including meeting the mayor, visiting the historic Nickel Plate 765 steam engine, touring the art scene located in downtown Fort Wayne, all things I would LOVE to do as an adult! Every year they put on plays and many types of performances, which as SO dang cute and very well put together. Also, they are bilingual, all teachers are fluent in Spanish and they teach the children the children in both languages, making it so all the kids are fluent in both. Which is a GREAT skill to have (and great for resumes!) The student-teacher ratio is the best that I've come across in my search, making it so they get to know every student as an individual, which aides in their teaching style because they know what works and what doesn't for each student. Pine Hill is a great school, I am so grateful for the way they have helped my children grow and learn.

Her staff has been with her for years no turn around which makes me feel so much more comfortable. All the children that my child started with are still there as well which says a lot about them. Highly recommended if you are able to get in with her waiting list.
