Every day my little one continues to grow in confidence, independence and is always learning new skills. As I said I can not recommend this wonderful school enough!

The teachers are amazing, the environment is nurturing and creative and the old farmhouse where the school is located is beautiful.

There are a few good teachers in the Children's House, but beyond that, very little has been positive. Ms Manviya is great!

We have since removed our enrollment due to these ongoing issues.

But the second she transitioned into the toddler room, everything fell apart. She came home with undocumented bite marks -- yes, bite marks that no one noticed or cared to report. She was sent home in soiled diapers almost every single day. The staff used the wrong diapers, wrong wipes, and even applied diaper rash cream when I had specifically instructed them to use coconut oil. That was never authorized. It felt like my directions as a parent were ignored. The turnover is out of control -- teachers come and go constantly because they are clearly underpaid and unsupported. The director changes so often that there is no leadership or accountability. The classrooms are dirty, the toys are old, and kids are always sick because the place is not properly cleaned. And if that wasn't enough, their billing practices are a complete disaster. Despite my child being on a voucher, they suddenly decided I owed them $4,000 because they didn't process payments correctly for months. Then they had the nerve to demand I pay it all at once, as if their incompetence was somehow my fault. At the end of the day, I pulled my daughter out because I could no longer trust them to keep her safe, clean, or cared for. I put her in an at-home daycare and the difference is night and day -- she is calmer, happier, and thriving. Guidepost Montessori in Marlborough is nothing more than a glorified, overpriced daycare that fails children and families. They are disorganized, careless, and completely unprofessional. I would never recommend this place to anyone. Save yourself the stress, the money, and the heartache -- your child deserves so much better.

My only wish is enrolling my child here sooner. Thank you Dipak, Beth, Ms. Sylvia, Ms. Katie and the rest of the team for shining bright with the children! You're all amazing and wonderful child educators! Our family is forever grateful.

I feel obligated to leave a review because their 5 star rating on yelp was one of the big factors…read morein us choosing this daycare. We had a really hard, frustrating and short lived experience with this school. My son (4) joined in June '21 because we'd moved too far from the daycare he'd been at since 18months. At first sight, the school seemed like a good fit. The owner, Dipak, gave us a tour and he seemed nice. We didn't meet the teacher prior to enrolling because I'd heard such amazing things about other Goddard locations. The problems started Day 1. I called to speak with the teacher reiterate that my son shouldn't take naps, and that he needs encouragement with the potty. His teacher was incredibly rude to me. Told me that all the children nap, basically tough luck. We communicated this with the director, Beth, (who as an aside, Is a super sweet caring lady we really liked, if only everyone else there was like that), and we worked out that we would send in a little bag of toys every day to have my son play with during nap time. We don't think it worked, he was never tired at the end of the day, and more than once he told us his teacher told him not to tell us he slept. (Who knows what's true with a 4 year old but when he wouldn't even fall asleep during a car ride at 9 pm, we felt pretty confident he was napping.) Next was the TV- we asked him what his favorite part of the day was and he excitedly told us "when we watched the episode of Peep and the Big Wide World." I was shocked, I'd never heard of a school playing show for the kid. I was told it's just during transition times and said it was fine but obviously a surprise and not our preference. Then a few weeks later my son started telling us "How come you don't let me watch shows at school?" Or "Miss Ornela lets the other kids watch shows but not me." He started regressing in potty training and still to this day tells us about how mean the teachers were when he had accidents. At a pick up, my partner asked if he had an accident and in front of our son, his teacher very harshly and abruptly said "it's not an accident, this kid simply isn't potty trained." He came home one time in tears so hungry, telling me that the teacher wouldn't let him eat his snacks (he still had snacks in his lunchbox). I personally saw how the staff spoke to the children at pick up and got a weird vibe. Lots of harsh commands, short tempers, something was off. And we tried to communicate all or most of these issues with management. Beth certainly tried her best to help, but the owner never did. And nothing every changed. He only lasted the summer here before we moved him to a Montessori school in the next town. Just 2.5 weeks in, he's falling asleep at 7:30, loving going to school, has had no accidents at school, is eager to go every morning, and even had some good speech progression (his new teacher helped him finally say Fs). The saddest part for us is he keeps telling us how awesome it is that "the teachers at the new school are actually nice."

It encourages a love of learning and a joy of discovery within a safe and stimulating environment. It is in this environment where each child can reach his full potential. Our classroom, which has been located at St. Michael’s Episcopal Church since 1996, provides a unique setting for children to grow, learn and experience God’s love.

At first we were hesitant to make the move because it seemed risky with the school being so new and with no local reputation other than good word of mouth at their other school in Boston. We were excited about the unique offering of daily music/instrumental instruction and French integration, plus the classes are so small right now, so we went for it, despite the hefty price tag. I'm happy to report that our daughter is so much happier in this environment, and the teacher in the primary classroom has far exceeded our expectations. She is an amazing and positive force in the classroom, she has been challenging our daughter in new creative ways every day, and as we learn about the Montessori lessons & activities we are starting to understand why our daughter is so happy and fulfilled each day. Unexpected bonuses- the "valet" service is cool. The head of school comes out to our car to walk the kids inside each morning, which is a nice perk (plenty of time to come inside at pickup though). I was initially put off by the idea of school uniforms until we tried it. It takes all the drama out of a little girl getting dressed in the morning, and it seems to put her into a calm & content "school mode". Can't explain it. We still have plenty of time to wear tutus and princess dresses when we get home. We are really excited to see how the school will grow over time. As they increase their staffing and enrollment, I'm sure word will get out that this place is special.
