What Parents Say
Parents consistently praise The Goddard School of West Chester for exceptional, caring staff and strong developmental outcomes. Children show progress in speech, academics, and social skills while feeling safe and loved. The facility is described as clean, well-organized, and offering enriching educational activities and outdoor play.
Our preschool-aged son attended here two days a week for several months, and we absolutely recommend it. Everyone is so welcoming and helpful. (Special shoutout to Ms. T!) We truly felt welcomed here by everyone, and we saw our son make so much progress with speaking, following directions, and simply being a part of a group. We plan to send our daughter here as well! One friendly suggestion is to establish a system for makeup days. Preschool tuition is costly, and having to miss a day due to illness happens to everyone. It felt so wasteful not being able to get the allotted days we paid for. In short, Goddard of West Chester is wonderful! Thank you for all you do.
I have to say hands down this is a WONDERFUL place to send your children. My oldest who is now a freshman at Drexel University went here and I am back with my now 4 year old. The staff is truly exceptional and full of heart. I highly recommend this location for their professionalism, warmth, organization and incredible teachers who all work together to give the children and parents the best experience possible.
Our children have been attending Goddard since 2021 and we could not be happier. Anna and Joanne are fantastic managers who are passionate about providing the best learning experience for your child. The teachers are dedicated to guiding your child's development. My kids are constantly coming home having learned something new, from vocabulary to counting to writing, they are maturing each day. Over the years my children have been lucky enough to have great teachers, such as Miss Tristan and Miss Tiffany. They embody what you hope for in a teacher. Loving, intelligent and truly care about helping your child learn and grow. Because of the people at Goddard I know that when the time comes, my children will be prepared to succeed when they move along to Kindergarten. These years are so important in the development of a child. I'm thrilled that they will have spent theirs at Goddard.
My daughter loves her teachers at Goddard so so much. When she first started she was a total COVID kid and took time to adjust, but Miss Tristan especially really took her under her wing and was so gentle and patient with her as she got more comfortable. And now, between her amazing evolution in the Snakes class, she's really blossoming with her Tigers teachers (Ms. Brittany, Ms. Parnell, Mr. Tyler) and friends.
There are no words when it comes to my appreciation for this school and staff. We knew we wanted to send our son Jackson to a good environment but were blown away at how amazing it was for him. He has excelled in his speech, OT and over all behavior thanks to the services Goddard allowed him to receive while attending school there. We are going to miss the teachers so much when he graduates but will be sending our 2 young girls there in the future. You won’t be disappointed with your tour, the facility is clean , friendly and allows children to thrive the way they are suppose to ! We love You Goddard xo
