With an infant and a recently turned four-year old at the school, I am thrilled to see their level of engagement! My son does something new daily and willingly goes to his teacher! My daughter is writing her name and sounding out letters! Both are learning to be strong and independent! So grateful they get to go here.

We looked at all the day cares in the area and Goddard seemed to me to be the cleanest with the best use of space and all the kids seemed happy there so we signed up. Our 6 month old started there a month ago and we just love it. The new owner is there every morning and gives us a big smile and greeting when we come in. All the staff that rotate in the newborn room are great and friendly and I know they are taking great care of my little peanut. Mrs. Erin is an absolute treasure. When I hand off to her I feel like I'm giving my child to a family member and I have zero stress when I walk out the door. My daughter adores her. She's been there for a long time and offers amazing stability. They do a great job rotating the kids through different activities. We get pictures sent home every day and a report of naps and feeds and diapers. Highly recommend!

“The Goddard School has been such a wonderful part of our family’s life! Our boys love going to school...to learn, talk, play, you name it. They come home already excited to go back the following day and talk about things they learn on the daily. My 3.5 year old son has really thrived in terms of his speech development (also, last night, he was telling my husband that the moon was a “crescent moon, Dad!” when they were getting ready to head in from outside)...he said “I learned that in school!” My almost 5 year old son has really thrived in terms of focusing on tasks and learning how to interact with others while being safe (he is a ball of energy!). We love our Goddard School and are so grateful to be a part of the Goddard family!”

“We know that our son is in a loving and FUN environment, while being encouraged to meet educational and developmental milestones. We also appreciate that the teachers are highly qualified, and communicate with us regularly about our son's learning and interactions at school. They are also always proactive in raising any concerns with us which we really appreciate.”

“They have been awesome with my two boys! My son is already ready to tackle Kindergarten and he still has another year before he goes (late birthday). Thank you to all of the wonderful teachers and staff that provide such great care and learning to the kids.”

Ms. Natalie and Ms. Molly are amazing! We are grateful for their positivity and patience! I have no doubt Alice will be ready for kindergarten next year!

I can't say enough wonderful things about Goddard. The teachers and staff are amazing and have become so close to my daughters. They genuinely treat you like family and go above and beyond to accommodate your child's needs. Healthy snacks, outdoor time, pretend play, circle time, and of course the daily reports on the app with pictures! The school has done such an amazing job handling the pandemic this year and we couldn't be more thankful! We feel our kids are safe and in such good hands at Goddard!

We have trusted Goddard School of Arnold with our son for two years and could not be more thrilled with his growth in both an academic and emotional respect.We are confident that our son will be set up for the best success when he enters kindergarten next year. From an academic standpoint, as a four year old, he is reading, can legibly write words and numbers, and even understands math skills (that I didn't learn until at least kindergarten or 1st grade!). From an emotional standpoint, he understands the value of inclusivity, being kind, and being patient (again, skills I didn't learn until much later!).We know that he is encouraged, loved, and taught things that we could never teach him on our own. We recognize that the team at Goddard School of Arnold are an extension of us as parents - we all work as a team to rear him into the best version of himself possible. I always feel comfortable to have conversations with the teachers about any new behaviors and how, as a team, we all help correct or encourage him. The teachers and staff welcome involvement.We love the teachers and staff at Goddard and couldn't be happier.

We love our Goddard School (Arnold, MD). They work with us to help educate and nurture our child and they keep us updated on recommendations to improve his education and behavior. We are confident in their care - they provide a daily curriculum (daily report) which they follow closely - this improves our confidence in them as well as our son's experience. We frequently discuss what he's learned at school with him based on his daily report and this allows us to continue his education at home. The staff is loving and knowledgeable. Thank you for being a part of our family!

We love the Goddard School! There are so many great things to say, but we especially appreciate the kind teachers, easy communication and great office staff! My daughter has absolutely thrived since being at Goddard. It is difficult to find a daycare that provides such an incredible preschool curriculum. This school covers all the bases.

We love the Arnold Goddard School! Fun and creative learning environment with wonderful, patient teachers who clearly care for the kids. Front office staff are also super and the school provides the best communication we have experienced of any preschool we have attended, including emails of daily activities with photos of our little one busily engaged in various activities. School is clean, colorful and well maintained with nice, secure outdoor place spaces too. Very happy we found this school!

LOVE the daily reports, the healthy snacks, outside time, and the daily activities. The program is great. My two year old was home with me for the first two years and we decided to put her in full time and she loves it! They keep her stimulated and having fun all day. Within two weeks of going, she was counting to 10 in Spanish! We now have my 7 month old on the waitlist!
