In my opinion…read moreit's a perfect balance of activities that incorporate all the critical early development milestones. There is both predictability in the schedule blended with new experiences. My children love it there and cannot wait to return for another year. Location is ideal. The playground and outdoor scenery is picturesque, located on a one way quiet and clean residential street. The classroom is bright and inviting. My kids absolutely love love the art projects. There is even group yoga!! And introduction of computer skills. I think it's great how there are different themes throughout the school year with emphasis on important health, science, safety, and community topics and more. The staff are warm, friendly, patient and professional and they seem very well versed in early childhood development and education. The drop off and pick up are well organized. It is amazing how much my child has excelled and matured socially and emotionally thanks to this wonderful, thoughtful and well laid out program. Definitely highly recommend!!!

Stay away !!!! This place is not for working families…read more They will call you for no reason to pic up the kid. Those are there rules and thats it. Dawn is not the honest person to deal with. Any argument she will make you pay. Extra fees are everywhere. Other places are more convenient and loving. Early drop off is a rip off there. You are paying for lunch that basically kids don't eat. Need to supply them with extra. My daughter was left in cold weather outside, shivering from cold and crying, I found her in playgrounds and teachers says.... We gave her hugs and kisses I hope she will be well. Teachers are changing very frequently. That make it very strange. Either there are overwhelmed or underpaid.

There are some negative reviews here that don't reflect our experience at Goddard. My son has…read moreattended this school since he was 1.5 years old (he's is almost 4). Before daycare, we had an au pair, but we felt he would benefit more from being around other children. Of all the options we explored, Goddard was by far the best choice. The school is safe, clean, and has plenty of outdoor space for kids to run and play, plus an indoor gym for rainy or very cold days. The staff is passionate about their work, maintains strict teacher-to-child ratios, and follows a curriculum that balances fun with learning. We receive photos throughout the day and a helpful en-of-day report. We've been very happy with all my son's teachers over the years. They've made him feel special, encouraged his growth, and helped him form strong friendships. The children motivate one another in such a positive way. Some people mention that tuition is higher than other schools, but we feel it's worth it for the level of care and education provided. You do need to pack lunch and snacks daily, but that's no different from feeding your child at home-and it ensures they'll eat food they enjoy. Coming from NYC, we were expecting long daycare waitlists, so we reached out six months before his start date. To our surprise, we had no issues getting a spot, and he's been enrolled full time since day one. We highly recommend this school.

I get the feeling that this daycare is nothing more than a money grab. They presented well at…read morefirst, but it quickly became apparent to me that they prioritize profit over care. Where other comparable schools charge $50 for enrollment, Goddard charges $350 non-refundable and then tells you they won't have space for your child. Other schools provide breakfast, lunch, and snacks - at Goddard, despite the tuition being double, there is no lunch provided. If you need to withdraw your child, many schools have a 30-day opt-out clause - Goddard's opt-out clause is 60 days, and you need to be careful because they are extremely vague and unclear when it comes to money. The teachers seemed entirely disinterested in the families and children, the outdoor space is tiny, and the overall environment did not feel welcoming.

I like overall this place. Teachers are great. However,…read morethey have gone crazy with the prices. Not only they have an annual "registration" fee on top of your very high, well above average fee, they also increase fees 10% annually. They are trying to upsale... constantly. Talking to the kids about all these pricy extra activities that happen at the same time they are there: yoga class, cooking class... I'm already paying 3k a month... why do I need to pay for activities while my kids are there?

LEARN THROUGH PLAY!!!! This is how preschool is supposed to be! The Roslyn Co-op is the place I…read morechose for my children because it allows them to learn and grow while fostering a true love for learning, friendship and their environment. The teachers, teaching assistants and aides are bright, kind, attentive, astute, warm and nurturing and all truly love what they do everyday as teachers. They truly appreciate every child for who he or she is and work so hard to cherish individuality. The program is so unique because families are given the opportunity to be in the classroom once a month or so with their child observing and living hands on what their experience is. So unique and special. The director of the school is brilliant in her field, an ultimate source of parenting knowledge and really the beating heart of the school. She knows each family at the school and cares about the integrity and quality of the program meeting each family's needs! This school is where I have met many family friends and where I would urge anyone looking for a wonderful preschool program to go!

OKP- Where do I even start?…read more I am so impressed by how professional, organized and caring all the directors, staff and teachers are. They have an amazing curriculum that keeps children engaged, participate in community activities, have events, teach children about the importance of manners and the list goes on and on. This is one of the most organized schools I have ever encountered. They send weekly reminders to parents about what the children are learning, monthly newsletters, reminder text messages, book fairs, cultural events-the list goes on. The teachers here are all amazing. Mrs. Petra and Mr. Jahbari are kind and patient-it takes a lot of patience to deal with 4 year olds and they do it with such ease and professionalism. Mrs. Shamekia- also amazing, kind and professional. Always willing to go above and beyond. Mrs. Leslie- just fantastic in every way. Professional, knowledgeable, kind and always willing to share information. I will truly miss this school once my child graduates however I feel this school has prepared her for kindergarten and that is all I could ask for. I will refer as many people to this school as I can.

I saw this online and was so pleased to see them as a vendor at the Merrick Street fair. The…read moreteachers seemed nice and we decided to do a trial class with my 5.5 month old. They emailed me a reminder and said I could bring my mom (I have horrible sciatica since my c section and if I'm on the floor too long my legs go numb), so that was nice. This is located in the basement of a temple. Parking is in the back and around, so use your strollers. There is a ramp so that is super helpful. You'll enter a basement that has a few rooms and a central area, as well as a bathroom with a changing table. All good things. We were ushered to a room that had a foam piece floor to sit around and a table with tiny chairs to the side. We sat on the floor and sang some songs. For itsy bitsy spider the teacher came around with a small plush spider and gently rubbed it on each child. As a first time mom I did not like that. Happily she touched my daughters leg but some kids faces... not into it. Then after a few typical kids songs we stood up (well my mom took my daughter) and did a run around song around the table. After we were brought to the main room for free play. The main room had carpets and many toys to play with. I was concerned with the cleanliness of the toys as ya know, babies put everything in their mouth. I was assured they were clean, still I didn't let my daughter put her mouth on anything. As we sat there a man, presumably from the temple walked through the back doors through the room, I didn't like that. I'm sure it's fine, but being a first time mom I don't like a space that's shared for children's activities. We went back into the classroom for a story. After the story the session ended. We walked through the main room and an older group of kids were playing with the free play toys...they came in right after we went out so I don't like how they weren't cleaned in between or the dirty toys removed. At the time I wasn't sure what to think. Maybe all mommy and me's were like that and me as a first time mom was being too cautious, however after going to others, I have seen dirty toys being removed or teachers coming in with a bin asking parents, "if you have dirty toys please place them In this bin so we can wash them." I think that would have made a big difference for me. I forget how much this was for a quarter year session... 299 or 399? Either way it wasn't for us, but give it a try if you're ok with all the above. The teachers were very nice.
