While this wasn't our favorite daycare (we're foster parents so we've experienced some others), it…read morewas fine up until a month or so ago when we started to notice some issues with race at this daycare. After multiple instances, we got to the point that we didn't feel it was appropriate to be bringing our child to this daycare. The staff is almost entirely white and it is definitely reflected in the way they disregard parent concerns about race and racism. More frustratingly, when we expressed concerns about these issues (they ranged from touching/doing our kiddo's hair to the way they handle discussions about policing), this center chose to call Children's Services rather than to have a conversation with us about it. We called and spoke to corporate and they seemed to acknowledge this wasn't okay, but not sure what happened beyond that. Furthermore, since then most of the office staff has refused to even look at or acknowledge my wife and I, to the point that I've witnessed office staff hurriedly running out of the office when we arrived or asking others nearby to hand us papers rather than just... handing them to us. I think this might be great for some parents, but I personally would never put another Black or Latinx child in this daycare (or any child, but especially kids of color), at least until they seriously revisit their policies and have some substantial training around how to work with/support minority children in ways that make them safer, rather than in ways that could potentially put them at risk of harm.

I have to disagree with the negative post indicating that this childcare facility has racist staff…read moremembers or isnt welcoming for children of any ethnic background. The Goddard School has been wonderful for my child. I always feel that he is safe, well taken care of, that the facility is clean, and that all children, regardless of race are welcome. My son is not of entirely white descent, and I have never felt like he us treated any differently than any other child in the classroom. Yes, the staff is primarily white, but we are in North Ridgeville, OH and when compared to local diversity, I would stay the staff is reflective of that. I have seen children of all races in my child's classroom as well as when when dropping off or picking up my child, all of whom appear happy, healthy, and their parents demeanor is the same. If you're looking for a place that you can feel comfortable bringing your child, feel confident in The Goddard School. Unless our life situation changes, I don't foresee my child attending any other school before he starts Kindergarten.
