What Parents Say
The Goddard School of Newington receives consistently high praise from parents who report their children are happy, engaged, and thriving academically and socially. Parents highlight the caring and attentive staff, strong curriculum, and leadership of owner Ron and directors Ash and Jess. The facility is noted for excellent communication, special events, and a nurturing environment that feels more like a private school than a typical daycare.
The teachers care incredibly about my children and are open and honest and pleasant. My children have learned so much academically and socially but the teachers also hold boundaries in an age appropriate and productive way. I trust Ron as owner and directors Ash and Jess wholeheartedly that if anything needs to be escalated they will handle it openly and honestly. The hours are convenient and I love all the extras Goddard does to make sure the kids have a great experience (class parties, spirit weeks, trunk or treats, etc). My son and daughter have developed a great relationship with each and every one of their teachers and have made so many great friends at Goddard.
We absolutely love this daycare! My daughter is so excited to go every single day, she looks forward to seeing her friends and all of her amazing teachers. The staff is incredibly attentive, caring, and truly makes every child feel special. It’s such a comforting feeling knowing she’s in such a loving, safe, and fun environment. We couldn’t be happier!
My two year old adjusted quickly upon starting daycare here a couple months ago. It was her first experience of daycare that she could remember (last time was elsewhere when she was 5-9 months old). She looks forward to seeing her teachers and friends, engages in a lot of stimulating activities throughout the day and has increased her social confidence. My own career is focused on early childhood mental health and development so I know the importance of good early childhood experiences. I’ve been really pleased with Goddard School of Newington’s curriculum, their approach to the children and the amount they share with caregivers in their daily reports at the end of each day. Highly recommend!
We love the school and all the teachers here, my two sons have attended and it always feels like all the teachers know and care about all the other children, whether they’re in that class or not. Great communication, fun events throughout the year, and always responsive to our concerns or requests. It truly does feel like a nurturing and caring environment.
The Goddard School of Newington has exceeded our expectations. Our son enjoys going to school and it gives us a sense of relief knowing he will be well taken care of. The teachers are great. The educational curriculum is great. The owner Ron is always present and involved with daily operations. I especially like how Ron knows the kids names, how he interacts with them and engages in outdoor activities with them.
