Having previously taken our daughter to another daycare in the Mason area, Goddard was such a…read morebreath of fresh air. The list of our complaints for our old daycare were quite lengthy. High turnover of staff, teachers don't have enough experience, forgetting/disregarding our daughters milk allergy, not report injuries, leaving her in the crib for too long, classroom size, age of kids in the classroom poor communication and impossible to give management negative feedback (they were quite defensive). It probably took my wife and WAY too long to switch daycares, we just kept wanting to work with them. We figured that the parent/daycare relationship required work and communication, but not matter how much we communicated things never improved. Finally after having our daughter in the daycare for almost a year, we decided to make the switch. BEST DECISION EVER. As I said before Goddard is such a breath of fresh air. I was just hoping a few things would improve, but every, single, thing on my list is not an issue at Goddard. I can't really say for sure why this is the case, but I have a few theories. For one, they are owner operated and the owners are always there. Literally every single morning I waive to one of the owners. Secondly, they require teachers with experience and often the teachers have a degree in child education. Finally, the communication from management is really good. They are forthright about every single thing. Whether a teacher leaves or our daughter bumps her head (both of which are unavoidable), we get calls, we get emails. The other part of Goddard that is quite impressive is the fact that hey have a curriculum and actually follow it. I think our old daycare claimed to have a curriculum but they were barely keeping our daughter alive, much less teaching her something. Goddard has taught our daughter some sign language, some words , to clean up after herself, how to use utensils, how to interact with other children, etc. I mean, even what I just listed is such a small representation of all the things they attempt to teach her. So far I've had two experiences with daycares, and the experiences couldn't be more polarized. I would give our other Mason daycare a "D-" (b/c they at least fed her and kept her alive) and I would definitely give Goddard an "A+."

My opinion of this daycare facility has changed drastically over the past few years, since it went…read moreunder new ownership. It saddens me it has come to this but the experience my son and family went through was detrimental enough that I need to do what I can to feel I've done my part to ensure no other family goes through it. You can have the best daycare teachers and directors, who may love your children like their own - but my family has unfortunately learned that if you have a bad daycare owner, what a huge impact it truly can have. I strongly urge any current or expectant parents to look in to your daycare owners' education and occupational background. If you see nothing about education or community or, even worse, only experience with financial planning, forecasting, portfolio analysis cost savings, control and auditing - please know their intentions are in the wrong place. They dont care about your family's relationship with the facility or even your child's well-being. You are a dollar sign. Having to part ways was heartbreaking because of the nearly decade-long relationships myself, husband, daughter and son had built with so many of the faculty and families. The bigger and quite frankly unacceptable issue we encountered, however, was blatant, documented lies on the part of the owner, that put our son's social and academic well-being in jeopardy. The change we have seen in my son's overall demeanor after only being at another school for a couple of weeks has been mind-blowing. I hate to shine a negative light on a place that meant so much to us for so long and still has many good people at it but, as a parent, I could not forgive myself if I knew I had an opportunity to prevent another child from being in this toxic environment and didn't do what I could the prevent it by sharing our experience.
