Goddard School

I want to give a huge thank-you to Ms. Destiny and Ms. T for taking such incredible care of my son, Mateo. From the very beginning, they have shown so much patience, warmth, and genuine dedication to his growth. Mateo has learned so much under their guidance—academically, socially, and emotionally. Every day he comes home excited to share something new, and that’s all because of the positive environment they create. Their communication, kindness, and passion truly stand out. As a parent, it means everything to know your child is in the hands of people who truly care. Thank you, Ms. Destiny and Ms. T, for all you do. You’ve made such a big difference in Mateo’s learning and confidence, and we appreciate you more than words can say!

We have been a Goddard family since 2023 with our son and our daughter will be enrolled there in the new year. We could not be happier with our experience at this school! It’s a safe and fun learning environment and our son truly looks forward to going every morning. He is currently in the leopards class with Miss Destiny and Miss Tia and absolutely loves it. You can tell that they genuinely enjoy what they do and it shows in the classroom environment.

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Ms. Tia and Ms. Destiny. They are truly a blessing to our family and such an important part of my son Emmanuel’s life. Every single day, they greet him (and every child!) with such joy and warmth — like they haven’t seen them in ages. It’s clear how much they genuinely care for the kids, not just as students but as little people growing and learning every day. They are patient, kind, and so attentive. I’ve seen how they make each child feel special and loved, and that kind of energy makes all the difference when you’re trusting someone with your child. Emmanuel absolutely adores them, and it gives me such peace of mind knowing he’s surrounded by teachers who treat him with so much care, encouragement, and happiness. Thank you, Ms. Tia and Ms. Destiny for all that you do. Your positivity and love shine through in everything, and we are so grateful for the difference you make every single day.

I’ve been a Goddard parent for almost 10 years, starting with my oldest and now with his siblings, and we’ve had a wonderful experience. The teachers are dedicated and caring, always building positive relationships with the children. The staff are friendly and welcoming, and the owner is approachable and supportive. The summer camp is a highlight every year, with fun activities, special visitors, and field trips that my kids always enjoy. The Goddard School of Elmwood Park has truly been a positive place for my children to learn and grow. I highly recommend to any family looking for a nurturing and engaging environment for their children.

I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt appreciation for the exceptional care and education that Ms. Tia and Destiny are providing for my toddler. They are truly wonderful teachers, and it's clear that they are passionate about creating a nurturing and engaging learning environment. My child is thriving under their guidance, and I'm so grateful to have them in their lives. Thank you, Ms. Tia and Destiny, for all that you do! - Leopard Class 🤗🏫
