I would not recommend this daycare to my worst enemy. Worst experience with a daycare I have ever…read morehad. Very unprofessional staff and I would not trust certain teachers with my child ever again. Please think twice about taking your child there.

I started send my son in 11/2023 and told them he is autistic and wanted to make sure they are able…read morehandle that. I was told yes and told they have cameras and etc. Things were going good but then a new teacher started after the new teacher I notice my son started acting odd. Then 1/31 I had my son tested for autism and he was on the spectrum. I shared this with the center and director. After this I started getting reports daily over stupid things and was getting concern, they were targeting my son. I called corp concern they reassure me this is not the case. Fast forward April 1 2024, I saw the police was at daycare when I went to go pick by 2 year old son up. When I walked through the doors the director was calling me about what was going on. I guess the teacher was aggressively handling my child and another parent saw it was super concern. The daycare DID NOT CALL THE POLICE! This parent sat there for 2 hours and were the ones that called the police. This daycare wanted the owner show up before calling the police. Even the policy told me they were trying hide the incident. There are NO RECORDING for this because TLE does no record footage at all. This teacher was out of ratio 1 teacher to 21 kids during nap time. They didn't call me for 5 hours after this happened. My son had a bruise on his back. They told me at first Ms. Lacey was not being fired for it which was a lie! The director quit right after this. DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILD HERE!!!

I have had my 3 children in various daycares throughout the years- probably over 6 by now. Without…read morehesitation this one is by far the best, by a mile. I am beyond impressed by everyone at this school. From the director who is kind, personal, and wonderful, the admin staff are amazing coming up with creative ways to celebrate and teach, the staff always having a smile and hello when you pass, and of course the teachers. The teachers are what any parent is looking for for their children. The amount of effort and skill that goes into the daily learning is incredible. My 5 year old is in Ms Kim and Ms Maria's class, she has grown so much in a year. She just scored 99 %tile on the state testing and the knowledge she teaches us at dinner is beyond her years. She's leaving pre K knowing how to read, write, addition/subtraction. My other one is in Ms Marisol and Ms Teresitas 2's class and learning so much. I highly recommend this daycare for anyone questioning it. I highly recommend it to anyone who asks.

He started in the "upper" 3s preschool program over a year ago.His wonderful teachers Ms. Elissa & Ms. Marwa have instilled values, respect, culture, independence with lots of learning through play. These teachers are high quality, educated and have 15-20 years experience. Our son is always creating, exploring and problemsolving. We've loved having consistent teachers who are absolutely amazing with our son! We started our baby in the baby room and it's been such a wonderful experience! Ms. Lisa, Ms. Kerry and Ms. Mckenzie along with the other providers are so loving, sweet & we'vefelt very comfortable having our babe in their care. He's now in the 1 year old room & excelling with the wonderful care there as well! Ms. Angela & Ms. Natalee are incredibly sweet! I love that at such a young age our babe is exploring & already learningso much. We feel so lucky to have our children in such a wonderful environment. Setting the foundation is important to us and The Goddard School is assisting us as working parents to do so. We are so appreciative & thankful for the wonderful teachers & establishment!

He began his kindergarten year last year and immediately qualified for the gifted program. The VPK program is run by amazing teachers who are patient and experienced. I am thankful for the learning and development my son has experienced throughout the four years. My son has continued to attend The Village during these unsettling COVID times. They have provided a safe environment for him to continue to learn and grow. I definitely encourage everyone to check out the Village. You won't be disappointed.

I'm very disappointed with our overall experience and especially with how our account and refund…read morerequest have been handled. There were several concerns during our time at this daycare. We experienced situations where teachers were yelling at children, as well as concerns about adequate supervision. On multiple occasions, my child came home with bite marks. I understand that accidents can happen in a childcare setting, but repeated incidents raised concerns for us about supervision and how these situations were being handled. We also had concerns with classroom management and communication. At one point, my child became so uncomfortable that he was crying and saying he was scared to go to daycare. We ultimately requested a classroom change, and our experience improved significantly with different teachers. We had some wonderful teachers who were kind and caring, and we appreciated them very much. Unfortunately, our most recent issue has been financial. We provided more than the required two-week notice and were previously given a $260 vacation credit for two weeks our child was absent in March. Based on the attendance, tuition, credit, and payments made, there appears to be an overpayment of approximately $256.41. I have provided the daycare with a detailed explanation and calculation and have repeatedly tried to resolve this directly. I have also specifically requested an explanation from the regional director regarding why this matter has not been addressed. I was told by the school director that the regional director has access to all of my emails and the relevant Procare information, yet she has not addressed the matter with me directly. What is particularly frustrating is that I was told by Mrs. Kayla that she believes I am simply asking for a refund of an unused vacation credit. That is not what I am requesting. The $260 vacation credit was already applied to my account and was part of the calculation when determining what I owed. The issue is the resulting account balance and apparent overpayment after applying the credit and accounting for the days my child actually attended. If the regional director has reviewed the emails and Procare records, I would expect the information to clearly show what I am actually disputing. I have asked for a straightforward explanation of how the final balance was calculated, but I have yet to receive one. I even offered an alternative resolution--using the amount toward several days of individual care if issuing a refund was administratively difficult. Overall, our experience has been very mixed. We had teachers who genuinely cared about our child, and we are grateful for them. However, the concerns regarding supervision, repeated biting incidents, teachers yelling at children, communication, and now the handling of an apparent overpayment have left us very disappointed. I'm sharing our experience so other parents can make an informed decision and, importantly, carefully keep track of attendance, payments, credits, and communications regarding their child's care. I will update when I hear back from the Regional Director about the refund.
