In that time, both of my children have changed classes more than once due to age. They have adored their teachers in each class they were a part of. The owners and management are fantastic. They are reasonable and flexible to work with, and sincerely concerned about the safety and growth of all the kids at their school. I would recommend Primrose to any parent looking for a safe and healthy learning environment for their child.

Could not recommend this school more!!! My son has been here for about a year, for reference…read more First, they are by far the cleanest daycare I've ever toured and we toured a lot! Second the staff genuinely cares, my son has moved throughout multiple classrooms and every teacher has been nothing short of fantastic in the infant and toddler program thus far. In regards to the infant room they are GREAT about following the oz's per bottle you set, but also gently making recommendations when needed. because let's face it babies act different depending on who they're around sometimes. You get these cute little notes about things they enjoy and developmental milestones they achieve. They send home soooo much art work for you to hang on the fridge and cherish. The toddler program is also wonderful. Classroom 6,1,2, and 3 teachers were all super great. One day there was an issue, my son slept too long and he slept through a bottle and as a ftm it made me super nervous, this staff handled it like CHAMPS they were super understanding and supportive of my position and assured me it wouldn't happen again and it did not. Goes to show how great they are at not only dealing with babies but also parents. The food they receive is also amazing in my opinion their menu never fails! Overall the value of care, education, and experience you get for your child is unmatched by any other daycare I've seen. If you can get a spot here I highly recommend it!

Our son was born just before the Covid pandemic started in 2020, this left us with a lack of…read moreoptions for childcare and also a big sense of unease about sending our baby to daycare/preschool. It took me almost a year to build up the courage to send him and in the summer of 2021 he started at Goddard. Now it's the summer of 2022 and both of our children attend Goddard. Our son is a little timid in large groups and likes to play independently, in each class his "style" has been respected. We get regular updates on his days and when a little extra attention is needed from us, his teachers have been gracious enough to help us reinforce positive behaviors at home. He loves his school and his teachers, every day he has a "great day" (his words). Navigating school and childcare in the post-pandemic has not been easy but we are always thankful and appreciative of the communication and cautiousness that Goddard places on the safety of the students and teachers. I would encourage any family looking for daycare/preschool to explore Goddard!

Very sketchy place. They don't have a lot of staff who are actually experts in Early Childhood…read moreEducation. Mrs. Valentina has a bachelors in linguistics and is the Lead Teacher? I find that odd and weird. All this money this daycare wants you to pay yet it is troubling that someone in such a critical early education role does not hold a degree in Early Childhood Education. The Goddard School is not simply a time for play--it is a foundational academic daycare that supports essential cognitive, social, and emotional development. Educators in this space should have specialized training in early childhood development, instructional strategies for young learners, and knowledge of age-appropriate curriculum standards. A degree in Linguistics, while valuable, does not provide the pedagogical framework or developmental understanding required to teach effectively at this level. This situation raises concerns about the standards being upheld in early learning environments. Recognizing someone as "Teacher of the Year" who lacks a degree in Early Childhood Education not only undermines the value of that credential but also sends the message that passion alone qualifies one to lead a classroom. Passion is important--but it must be paired with relevant, formal education to ensure children receive the quality instruction they deserve.

She is not afraid to speak up against injustice, loves and protects nature, and is incredibly kind. Classroom: It provides a true Montessori environment that promotes independence and peace, making it the perfect place for kids of all backgrounds because they truly meet you where you are. The teacher-to-student ratio is 8:1. The staff are genuinely amazing and passionate about their work. Field trips, show-and-tell, nature walks, and much more are part of the experience. They invite people from all over to teach about animals, places, and everything in between. I never worried about dropping my kids off at school because I knew they were in good hands. My daughter is very confident and always tells me about the fun activities she participated in at school. Ms. Michelle was her main teacher, and she is like a real life Ms. Honey from Matilda. Ms. Jackie, Ms. Leanne, Ms. Sandy, and all the other educators are extraordinary, and I am forever grateful for giving my children a well rounded start in life. Extracurriculars: The school offers soccer and yoga. My daughter participated in both, and it's wonderful to see her practice her yoga poses at home. A note to know: There is no aftercare or beforecare available. School begins at 8:30 a.m. and ends at 3:00 p.m. I cannot recommend this school enough, and it is so bittersweet that my daughter has aged out and is moving on to her next adventure.
