Goddard West Chester

If I could give no stars, I would. When I first heard about this school I was excited that such a great daycare was in the area. We recently moved here from South Carolina. Since visiting through the school not too long ago I noticed teachers on their phones. Specifically a room connected to a bigger empty room that I believe they called the ball room. They had smaller kiddos that I think are older than one year but still small. The kiddos were not actively being watched and I saw a little girl hitting and pulling hair and the teacher was too focused on her phone to intervene. On top of that a family friend who attends here has said they’ve lost multiple teachers over the last few months. They had a girl who looks like she can’t be much older than 15 in a room with older kids and I didn’t see her smile or seem happy when interacting with the kids. If you don’t like children why are you working with them? I’m very disappointed and thankfully have decided not to enroll my child here as well as have encouraged my friends to pull their children from their care. Very disappointing. Only positives were the cleanliness and the aesthetic of the building. EDIT- I came to see if the staff replied and they did, I will be calling later this week when I have a moment. Upon speaking to my friend whose family attends her, it seems some of these reviews are from family members of people that work there and/or staff members themselves which seems very odd that the reviews aren’t all authentic, especially as it seems to come in right after mine. Which makes me wonder how truly reliable the reviews are.

We are very happy with our experience at Goddard West Chester! The teachers are great and my daughter looks forward to going to school everyday. They are clean which is a huge factor for me when looking for a daycare.

We have had a great experience with Goddard West Chester! From the very beginning, the staff has been warm, welcoming, and genuinely invested in my daughter's growth and well-being. Over the years, she has learned so much and continues to thrive both socially and academically, thanks to the nurturing and enriching environment they’ve created. Communication has always been open and respectful. Anytime I’ve had a question or concern, it was addressed thoughtfully and promptly, and I always felt heard. One of the things I appreciate most is how supportive and caring the staff has been. You can tell they care about the children AND the families — you really feel like part of a community here. Beyond day-to-day care, they go above and beyond with special events throughout the year: Mother’s and Father’s Day celebrations, Trunk or Treat, the Sweetheart Dance, etc. These moments have created lasting memories for my entire family. It means so much to know my daughter has spent these formative years in a place where she’s safe, supported, and celebrated. I’m deeply grateful for the love and effort Goddard West Chester puts into everything they do!

The owner/directors and staff are amazing! You can truly see how much they care about all the kids and families. My child enjoys going to school! There is also a great app that allows me to stay up to date during the day- on activities, lunch, naps and diaper changes- and can also see pictures and videos of all the fun activities they are doing for the day! We have had a wonderful experience!

I was recommended these daycare by a friend. She told me it was good. My personal experience with this daycare was not quite there. I am a single mom. I expected more values and actually tell you that you're a child has an accident. They don't call give you updates with your children. Would not recommend this daycare? there's only one teacher that I value there.It was miss tina. Please do your research before Bringing your kids here.
