At
the Goddard School® bright, cheery classrooms and large
playgrounds form the backdrop to a learning environment where
children participate in exciting activities. Children eagerly
explore special centers for math, science and art; dance to
silly music; read in library nooks; and climb, run and jump
outdoors. Since your child's first school will set the stage
for a lifetime of learning, the atmosphere at Goddard is warm
and loving. Caring teachers support the healthy development
of your child from six weeks to six years old. Whether gently
holding your infant, encouraging your toddler to share, or providing
your preschooler with a wide range of enriching opportunities,
Goddard teachers understand your child's needs. They provide
ample time for your child to investigate centers with friends
as well as making time for independent exploration. By planning
your child's day based on Goddard Developmental Guidelines,
teachers are able to provide an atmosphere that nurtures their
self-confidence and fosters a lifelong love of learning. Each
Goddard School has the benefit of a hands-on owner and an education
director to provide dependable staff management and open communication
with parents. You are welcome to stop in and visit your child
anytime. Goddard also prepares a Daily Activity Report for your
child each day that includes your child's naptime, lunch and
snack information, and most importantly a special message from
your child's teacher. Goddard is setting the standard for quality
childcare. The year-round program provides consistency for your
child, while the choice of either a half or full-day schedule
offers flexibility for your family.
