I know the friendships the girls and our family have developed through PGNS will last a lifetime.

With four kids under my belt I've had my fair share of schools, teachers, camps, babysitters and…read moredaycares. Needless to say but The Goddard School in Farmington has truly exceeded my expectations. Sure, I can go on and on about the structured days led by teachers who actually have a degree in early childhood education and brag about the art projects and the pictures I receive during the day and the complete report of my child's every activity at the end of the day...all emailed to me, but I'd like to focus on something else. The staff is owner operated, happy to be there and, my favorite part, is that when a child is having difficulties adjusting or a teacher doesn't have the "connection" with the kids they don't just sit there and wait to see if it all works out. How awesome is it that the owners are not just looking out for their bottom line but also the happiness and comfort of the student/teacher/parent relationship? The facilities are brand new, sparkling and fabulous. The hardwood floors are a perk for those who hate a germy carpet (totally me) and the bathrooms are disinfected after each use.....don't even let me get started on the epic hand washing routine they have! Amazing! Also, given this day and age, I must point out the security system, cameras, unique codes and fingerprint system. Sorry, I take no chances with my little ones and I want to know they are secure and this place is like Fort. Knox. Net/net the place is new, the owners are experienced and they too have a standard to live up to by using "The Goddard School" name. And aside from reading my fabulous review, which could be total BS because my kid goes there so I drink the kool-aid, check it out for yourself. Take a tour and see the art projects, see the doors of the classrooms changing weekly, she the teachers loving, singing and playing with the kids and, most importantly, see the kids happily responding to their peers and teachers. Reviews can be biased based on the happiness or unhappiness of a guest but what you see with your own eyes and how your child walks happily into school speaks for itself. Take a tour and drink your own cup of Kool-Aid, you'll know what I'm talking about!

The staff are attentive and clearly care about the children. They send pictures throughout the day on the app, which I really appreciate, and they're always quick to respond to any questions. You can genuinely tell that the teachers love what they do and truly care about the kids. As a first-time mom, that peace of mind means everything to me. I never have to worry about whether my son is safe, watched closely, and well cared for while he's there, and that speaks volumes.

The Director, Joan Parks, has become a family friend for life. The staff who work with her have been the teachers there for years. This is a team of educators who truly find preschool care and education to be their calling. This team of teachers gets to know each child very well, and they truly love the kids they teach and care for. The program is a wonderful balance of educational play, hands-on exploration, art appreciation, life appreciation, love of cultures from all over the world. My son still remembers all the steps in the water cycle. He still remembers how they taught him about animals and nature. By the time he was headed for kindergarten, he was beginning to sound out short words. Although there is an academic component, it's not imposed on the kids, and they're truly taught at their own pace and interest level. We are still friends with the families who were part of the ANS community when my son was there, and he is still good friends with some of the children from his time at ANS. Truly, you could not dream up a better environment for your child. I can't say enough about Avon Nursery School and its staff. It's a very special place.

Our daughter has such a strong bond with her and is always happy and smiling when I pick her up at the end of the day, Ms Virgen truly treats those babies as if they were her own and I couldn't have asked for anything better! Her and Nicole (who is also amazing!) read books to the babies, do arts and crafts, and make sure all babies get equal love and attention. The room is cleaned daily and their sick policies protect our little ones from spreading illnesses. They have a huge fenced in backyard with play structures and activities for the older kids. They frequently take the babies on walks with strollers. They also post the cutest pictures on their daycare app, which is nice to see while you are away from your child. Lily is awesome and runs a great facility. She is easy to work with and has always accommodated our needs without issue. My boyfriend and I both cried on our daughter's last day here (due to relocation). It was truly heartbreaking leaving this place behind as we knew how loved and well taken care of our daughter was in their care.

Many of the teachers have been with Willow House for over 15 years and they take the time to get to know and work with the students on a highly individualized level.

I have watched her grow both intellectually and socially and she is always excited to go to school and play with her friends.

The entire facility is very aware of childhood allergies, and if your child has a sensitivity of any kind, it is addressed. This is great to keep in mind. Fortunately, my kids aren't allergic to anything, but I understand what a challenge this for other families.
