What Our Goddard Village Is Saying

The constant communication from the teachers throughout the day with the pictures are really great and helpful. Hayley is also learning a lot and it shows when she is home with us. All the teachers seem so wonderful and extremely helpful

Hayley's Father

Infant Classroom

The entire staff is "grade A", not just in friendly attitude but also in their proactive interactions with the children. I have great faith (justified by experience thus far) that they will approach my child in ways that are specific to and effective for her - and that if there is anything notable or even concerning to spot, they will spot it and share it. Combined with the particulars of the general Goddard program, this is all any parent could hope (not just ask) for!

Elizabeth's Father

Infant Classroom

Goddard school of Monroe was on our minds for a couple years, we finally switched our youngest in October 2023, and it’s been the absolutely best decision for not only our daughter but family. The facility is beautifully designed and clean. The faculty and staff all around has been to welcoming and friendly and my daughter has learned SOOOO much in the time she has been there and I’m forever grateful that she we were able to make this transition for her and she is just as happy as we are.

Valerie & Delainey's Mother
