We have used Goddard since our daughter was three months old. We have had a wonderful experience. Our daughter is absolutely thriving. She loves her teachers, has learned so many new social skills and is always happy when we pick her up. The school takes all feedback into consideration and is very accommodating and helpful. You are greeted with a smile every time you come in the door, from the front desk staff to the teachers and support staff. We can’t wait to watch our daughter move up through each of the classrooms. If you are looking for a great day care with a thorough and extensive curriculum, would definitely recommend Goddard!

I have been at the Goddard School of Norwood for 6 years now (with both of my daughters) and I can't imagine sending my children anywhere else! My youngest daughter is in First Steps now and I can tell she truly loves being at school. She is excited in the mornings when I drop her off and has the biggest smile on her face in every picture I receive. All of the teachers I have come across are so loving and enthusiastic and you can tell they truly care for your children. I always know my daughters are safe, happy and having fun when they are at the Goddard school.

Our two girls attended Goddard in Norwood from the time they were 4 months and 6 months old through kindergarten and we have nothing but great things to say about all the teachers and aides and support staff who taught and took care of our girls over the years! The curriculum is great and ensures the kids stay engaged and learn so much, and the facilities are top notch and are constantly updated and improved. The hours are great and the before and after care programs are just as good as the actual regular class time. They were amazing before, during, and after the pandemic and I highly recommend them to any one looking for a daycare and kindergarten in the area!

They are kind to kids and parents. They also have many teachers who work there more than ten years and I think that speaks volumes about the environment. If teachers are happy children would learn more and better.

Before you read my review, don’t look any further! We looked at The Goddard School of Norwood when I was pregnant with my (now) 5 year old. He recently graduated from Goddard of Norwood and I can tell you, IT IS A VERY SPECIAL PLACE! During my children’s last week (due to graduation and relocating)-I cried every day at pick up and drop off! Every day! They became our family!!Both my children started at Goddard of Norwood at 6 months old, in the Infant Room! I trust NO ONE with my kids (not even my one parents) and it is because NO ONE will ever compare to the staff of Goddard. Anthony and his staff truly get to know all of their teachers to see the best placement for everyone-keeping employees happy and parents’ minds at ease.My children are also VERY prepared (academically and socially). My son knew all his letters/sounds/rhymes/numbers (up to 100) for kindergarten screening; and both of my children are socially adaptable and understand how to act in a public setting.We moved before my daughter graduated from The Goddard School of Norwood. I can tell you THIS IS (INDEED) A VERY SPECIAL PLACE! We pulled my daughter out of another preschool/daycare because I didn’t have the “mama safe” feeling that I had in Norwood. I didn’t appreciate that comfort until it wasn’t a part of my everyday life.Thank you, The Goddard School of Norwood, for 5 beautiful years; for helping to raise our children (and us as new parents); and for making all the families feel safe and at ease while our children are with you!

I had to change daycares due to personal reasons, but my daughter Ava attended for a year. We absolutely loved Ms. Stefanie and the other teachers in her room. Ava was so loved, cared for and she had a lot of fun! At 2, she also learned the alphabet and to count to 10. All of the teachers we encountered were really lovely, including the directors. Also, I found that my emails were answered immediately and any concerns always addressed. The building is very nice (especially compared to most daycares) and the playgrounds are large.

Middle of the road. There are better places and worse places. Revolving door for teachers, a reflection on management.

I have three little ones enrolled at The Goddard School in Norwood. I started my youngest at just 3 months old and could not be more grateful for the care & support the staff has provided my family. The owner is very compassionate about making sure each every student & parent alike are happy and thriving. He has an open door at all times to discuss progress of your child. I am particularly impressed with how knowledgeable is on each child’s current progress and how open he is to sharing experience and support. His overall commitment to making the school the best it can be is evident in each classroom. The teachers genuinely care for the children and are invested in their growth. I could not be happier to have chosen this particular Goddard program; the admin staff, teachers, and support staff are the friendliest and most caring. They are the village raising my kids to be the best they can be! We are so thankful for all they do. I highly recommend Goddard of Norwood.

This review is way past due, but I didn't want another day to pass by without writing a review for the Norwood Goddard School. Both of my sons attended a couple of years ago. one was 3 - 4 years old and he LOVED it! He loved his teacher and the rest of the staff, we even came back after ge moved to kindergarten for summer school 2 years as he loves it. I also had my 6 month old son in the infant area for about a year and the staff was great. Anthony, the owner, is active in the center and listened to any concerns and acted on them, the staff was very caring and attentive. We missed them soo much.. I have not been able to find another center that is as great as Norwood. The staff, the curriculum, the owner, Anthony. everyone was great! Thanks!

When we first moved into the area over 2 years ago, we did not want to start looking for a new preschool/daycare for our daughter, but as soon as we spoke to the people at Goddard we knew it would be our choice and our daughter has been there ever since. The staff is so friendly and the teachers are fantastic! She loves going to school and loves her teachers. She has learned so much already and she just turned 4. She can write her first and last name and recognizes all the letters of the alphabet. We love The Goddard School!!
