Schools near South Kingstown, RI

“Anyone who has had to weather the storm of finding a suitable and comfortable daycare for your children can attest, our arrival for our three-year stay in Rhode Island was no different. On top of that, being a military family, our decisions on such matters often have to be rushed so that both of us – as working parents – can continue our working lives and at least have somewhere our children can go during the day. Because Goddard was close to us, the location was an obvious choice. Fortunately, when we did our initial walkthrough, we had no questions left that it was the place we wanted our kids to attend.

With all that being said, we had absolutely no idea how amazing Goddard would be for our boys. Between our oldest, who started in classroom seven, and our youngest, who made his way through classroom five, the two of them touched all but one classroom. Throughout their time, the Goddard staff showed our children the care, attention, and joy that we strive to do at home. Whether it be our kids going through a disciplinary issue, or just an update on how they were progressing in a positive manner, the staff always kept us informed of how our kids were doing. If we ever had concerns, they were willing to stop and address our thoughts over the phone, as soon as we walked in, or any other time we needed. Simply put, working with the development of children in a school environment is a team effort between parents, teachers, and administration. The Goddard School of South Kingstown does this in the most exemplary way possible; we never felt out of touch, that we weren’t being communicated with, or that the staff had anything less than the most important thing: our children’s best interest. Unfortunately, our time in Rhode Island came to an end, or we would have let our youngest stay enrolled in Goddard until he graduated and went to Kindergarten.

If you are looking for a school for your children in the South Kingstown area, Goddard is simply the best there is. Watching our children’s growth and development over the years at Goddard was in no small part due to the role their staff played!”

“We love Growing Children! The staff are all very kind. I was nervous to start my infant in daycare but the staff made me feel supported and eased the transition. They communicate with me throughout the day using an app and also send photos. I appreciate the flexibility of choosing the days to attend.”

“We could NOT be happier anywhere else but Cadence. We started back in 2022 with our eldest in their pre-school program and from day one we felt like family. Everyone at Cadence is so incredibly kind and caring and as soon as you walk into the building you know this is a safe and loving environment for you children. Now our youngest attends and no matter what kind of day he is having, we know it is cared for, loved and being taught kindness and respect all while learning new things every day. Bianca and Lauren are amazing and really do have the best childcare staff to teach and care for their students! We truly love Cadence and are so happy we are a part of their family.”
