The Goddard School

We love Goddard Folsom! Our daughter has been enrolled there since she was 4.5 months and she’s now almost 2. I was having hard feelings about going back to work, but staying at home was not a feasible option. From the moment we toured Goddard, we knew we had found the right people to entrust with our girl. All of the directors and teachers know every kid’s name, and there is genuine joy from the staff every time a child walks through the front door. They send us daily updates on how my daughter is doing, what she did throughout the day (AMAZING and DYNAMIC curriculum!) what she ate, and even when she went to the bathroom (as a parent, you need to know!) from day one my husband and I have always felt that our daughter was safe and incredibly well loved and cared for by the teachers and directors. The staff are responsive to any calls/texts/emails right away, and are genuinely interested in not only the child, but the family. I love all of events they put on throughout the year: from dress-up days to holiday parties, to school dances, you can tell how much the staff love the kids and how safe the kids feel with the staff. My daughter loves her teachers and is excited when we pull up to school each day. 100% recommend joining the Goddard Folsom family!

Having to enroll our 4 month old baby in daycare was a very hard decision. As most parents, we were very unsure. We felt immediately at ease during our tour at Goddard. Decided immediately this is where our baby belongs, and we have been very happy since. Great communication with parents and security, but also the teachers are so loving and sweet. Our daughter loves seeing her teachers every morning. My husband and I always feel so good after dropping by her off knowing she is happy, and getting the love and attention she needs at such a critical age. Miss Trisha, miss Mannie and miss Jessica in the infant class are amazing with our baby. We are so thankful for those ladies. They deserve a raise! We also love the daily photos with the educational objective, I look forward to those photos every day. They also live log all naps, diapers and feedings so we know her necessities are being met regularly.

Goddard in Folsom has been the best possible start for our boys. I'm so grateful to the caring staff for making their transitions away from home care as seamless as possible (teachers truly treat the kids and their parents like family). Both of my boys have thrived from the thoughtful curriculum that enables them to learn through playing while also building core skills in social awareness/manners, creativity, writing, number and shape recognition, gross and fine motor movement, and vocabulary. They are definitely prepared well for Kindergarten and my kids always leave school happy. I highly recommend this wonderful school to parents who want to make sure they are sending their kids to a trusted and caring environment.

We love Goddard, Folsom! We are so happy that we chose this school for our daughter. We feel very safe with our daughter's care being in Goddard's hands! She loves going to school to see her friends and teachers; they provide excellent learning activities as well as daily reports so we are kept up to date on what she is doing at school. We would recommend Goddard to anyone who asked!

Absolutely love Goddard School they treat my son like family and it's so wonderful to have a village to help us raise our wonderful little guy. They go above and beyond and I love that they have an age appropriate curriculum to help them develop, learn, have fun and feel loved. Thank you Goddard! 🥰
