We are extremely pleased with the Goddard School of Medford. We recently moved and had to switch our son from a different provider to the Goddard School, and the experience is like night and day. The teachers and directors are so kind, each and every one of them greets us every day. They remember minor details of our lives and check in with us. Our son is also thriving! Since we switched to the Goddard School, he's finally taking extended naps at daycare, he's learned to sit up on his own and his eating has also progressed. All the children look so happy to be there. I cannot recommend the Goddard School of Medford enough!

Goddard Medford is such an incredible and special place. Every teacher has gone above and beyond for my child and make him and our family feel so special. They are great at communication and teaching the children and letting them know their supported. My daughter will soon start here and I'm very lucky and fortunate that we have found such an incredible place for our babies to go and learn and be loved!

I cannot say enough good things about Goddard. Our son started in the infant room at 6.5 months and i was so nervous but the transition was seamless. Even the first day they made so easy for us. He is now in the 12-18 month room and they have just been beyond amazing. I never stress at work and always know he is in amazing hands with the teachers. They go above and beyond to keep the parents at ease and develop your child’s mind. Every day when I pick him up he is smiling and so happy. Renee has been a godsend to us working with schedules and being so accommodating. We are truly in love with Goddard :)

We had a great experience at Goddard for the four months we were there. we've been to three preschools in Medford, and this one was the best of the three. The facility is very clean. The teachers are very caring and the Director is very helpful. My son really enjoyed going to school here each day and I fully recommend it to other families in the area.

I am a previous employee of this Goddard location, short lived due to the levels of toxic drama oozing from the older female staff, and I’m very disappointed to see that John and Renee are deleting bad reviews. If you truly ran the type of facility you claim to, you wouldn’t have to censor the comments made about it. Very unprofessional and doesn’t make you guys look any better. Didn’t want potential families to know that a child ate another child’s feces under staff watch and the parents were never informed or any of the other questionable things that happened here? I’m not saying your place is all bad, you do care for the kids but deleting reviews is not the way to go. If you delete this one, I’ll just post another.

Love this school. My daughter I felt was a little behind with speech and social skills needed for kindergarten due to her being the "COVID" baby and not being able to be exposed to the daily "normal" things .. like most kids did.However, since enrolling her in Goddard she is speaking SO MUCH MORE!! I can see her confidence growing socially as well as academically. The teachers send out little pictures during the day to keep us informed about what they are doing in the classroom, and it always brings a smile to my face. My daughter is safe and well cared for at Goddard/Medford. Ms. Tina and Ms. Julianna are the best!

All the staff, particularly Ms. Sammy and Ms. Rose, are very professional and develop good relationships with the kids. My daughter didn't use to be close to other people than her parents. However, I got impressed by how the teachers built a relationship with her shortly. I always get transparency about what is happening with other kids, particularly with illnesses that are appearing.I would love for my daughter to go to school more frequently, but it is her first year, and she has been sick several times.

We've been part of the Goddard/Medford, NJ family for nearly 4 years and are so happy with our experience. Each teacher, whether our son has had them or not, consistently embraces his education, health, and general well-being, and has taken the time to get to know not only him, but our family. The school is lead by an engaged owner and director, both of whom have an open door, always, and know everything about hist day, and are always ready to greet him with a warm hug at the end of the day. We’re down to our last few months here and I will always look back on this time with good memories and offer a strong recommendation. There are a lot of daycares/preschools out there but for us… this was the best decision we could have made.

We’ve had a great experience! Our son has worked on a rigorous PreK curriculum while seeing just how much fun learning can be. We’re so grateful for all that the staff has done to help us along the way!

As a stay at home mom it was difficult to let my firstborn go, but Renee and staff put me immediately at ease. I interviewed several Pre-K’s in the Medford area, and I commend Goddard for how well they handled the virtual interview process during covid. Goddard is the only school that made sure the head Pre-K teacher was available to speak to me during the virtual interview, and it made all the difference for me. Renee and John continue to impress me with their responsiveness and professionalism during these trying covid times.Speaking specifically of the teachers at Goddard, they are caring, helpful, and overall excellent teachers. Again, covid has made things difficult with the disconnect that parents feel when they can’t speak to their children’s teachers daily. I have witnessed teachers in younger classrooms making a point of coming out to explain a variety of things that happened throughout the day. In my own daughters classroom, both Ms. Danielle and Ms. Nicole are communicative and helpful. My daughter misses them when she’s not at school often pretending to be them with her baby sister as the reluctant student. I highly recommend Goddard of Medford not only for its fair pricing, but for the comfort and confidence that Renee, John, and staff give to nervous parents.

Our three year old started late this past summer and he has grown so much! From the time he walks in the door in the morning, until he walks out in the afternoon, he's greeted with a smile. We love getting pictures through their tadpoles app. It makes communication with his teachers and caregivers so easy! The teachers and staff are very responsive and work with families to help your child grow. Our son loves Goddard, his teachers, friends, and all of the things he is learning through play. He sings songs he's learned at school and most importantly we have seen an improvement with his communication which has been a struggle for him. It has been a challenge for all educational institutions since the pandemic, but the staff at Goddard get through it with a smile and don't ever skip a beat- despite all of the challenges that have come their way. They keep us informed and in the loop about the happenings and it is so appreciated.I highly recommend Goddard of Medford!
