The Goddard School @ Pasadena

As first-time parents, choosing a daycare felt overwhelming, but touring The Goddard School in Pasadena, MD immediately put us at ease. From the very beginning, the team was incredibly professional, warm, and welcoming, and they took the time to thoughtfully answer all of our questions, making our decision to choose Goddard Pasadena an easy one. Now that our (first) baby is enrolled, we couldn’t be happier. We absolutely love the small size of the younger classrooms—only six infants per room with two teachers—which means the teacher-to-child ratio is outstanding. The one-on-one attention, teaching, and daily support our son receives is truly exceptional. It’s incredibly comforting to know he is being looked after with such love and care, and that he is safe when we are not there. We also love the curriculum and really appreciate the multiple updates we receive throughout the day, which help us stay connected and know exactly what he’s up to. We are so grateful for the amazing, caring team at Goddard Pasadena and highly recommend it to other families, especially first-time parents.

We couldn't be happier with the Goddard School! Leaving your child with someone else can be tough, but the moment we drop our daughter off, we know she's in the best hands. The staff is consistently warm, patient, and truly engaging. We love hearing about all the fun and creative activities they do each day, and the communication from the teachers is excellent. My daughter is always excited to greet her teachers and comes home happy, often showing off a new song or skill she learned. The environment is safe, clean, and truly fosters a love of learning and exploration. The Goddard School feels like an extension of our family, and we are so grateful for the care and dedication everyone shows. Highly, highly recommend!

We are so happy that our little one is at The Goddard School of Pasadena. From day one, the teachers and directors have been incredibly kind, caring, and attentive, creating a nurturing environment where children truly feel seen and supported. Communication has been outstanding—they are always open, approachable, and willing to answer any and all of my questions without hesitation, which gives us so much peace of mind as parents. It’s clear how much pride they take in their work and how genuinely invested they are in each child’s growth, development, and happiness. We feel confident and grateful knowing our child is learning and thriving in such a warm, safe, and engaging environment.

We’ve been with The Goddard School (Pasadena) from the time our child was an infant all the way through age seven (and still going), and our experience has been nothing short of outstanding. From day one, the communication has always been consistent, clear, and genuinely supportive, something that matters so much when you're entrusting your little one to someone else. The curriculum in the daycare and preschool years was truly top-tier. This was our child’s first exposure to a structured learning environment, and we were blown away by how thoughtfully everything was introduced. It’s not just play, it’s purposeful learning, and you can see the growth week after week. Special shoutouts to Mrs. Kendall, Jess, and Bri, who have been absolutely incredible. They know these kids, care about them, and take the time to communicate with parents in a way that makes you feel included and confident. Their passion and professionalism shine every day. Now that our child is older, the aftercare program has been equally solid, structured, reliable, and still full of enrichment. It’s been the perfect bridge between school and home. We couldn’t be happier and would recommend the Goddard Pasadena location to any family looking for a nurturing, safe, and academically strong environment for their children.

We’ve had such a lovely experience with the teachers and faculty at Goddard Pasadena. My littlest has the same teachers that my oldest son had when he was a baby. Teachers are so wonderful and provide great consistent and open communication. Our kiddos look forward to each day.
