I cannot say enough nice things about The Goddard School of Midlothian - Woodlake. Everyone has made us feel like family, and our child thoroughly enjoys being there. Every teacher communicates extremely well with the parents, and makes sure every child enjoys their time while in school.

Highly recommend enrolling your child at the Goddard School of Midlothian - Woodlake!

The Goddard School at Woodlake has been so welcoming to our 2 year old daughter since starting a couple months ago. They treat us like family! I am always surprised when I’m picking up my daughter to go home that so many staff members know her name, not just her teachers in her class. I was nervous about leaving my daughter somewhere besides home but they have made us feel so safe and comfortable with her being there. I recently had a baby and they sent us flowers and a bear which I thought was so sweet and thoughtful. We truly love it here and highly recommend it!

We couldn't be more grateful for this school. Our child has attended Goddard School at Woodlake for over 2 years now. It's amazing to see how much he's learned. It’s clear that the staff takes the time to know each child as an individual and meet them where they are. The communication is excellent and the sense of community is something really special. We trust this preschool completely, and we feel lucky every day that our child gets to learn and grow in such a warm, intentional, and inspiring place. Highly, highly recommend to any family looking for a place that feels like a second home.

We could not be happier with our decision to send our child to Goddard Woodlake! From the moment we first toured the facility, we felt a sense of warmth, professionalism, and genuine dedication to early childhood development. It truly feels like an extension of our family. The leadership and teachers are amazing and you can tell they truly care. They are incredibly patient, kind, and clearly passionate about their work. They know every child by name and pay attention to individual needs. My daughter was nervous about starting school, but Mrs. Ann and Miss Abbie are amazing and helped her so much! Their communication is excellent and we love getting photo updates throughout the day. The learning environment is balanced, encouraging both structured learning and free exploration. The local fire station even visited and the kids got to see the truck! I love the hands-on learning approach. I can see my child’s growth in just a few months going three half-days, it’s a beautiful thing! We are so grateful to have found such an amazing school! Highly recommend!

My daughter has been going to this school since she was 3 months old and it was the best decision my family made. The owner, Mrs.Christina is phenomenal!! Anytime that I had questions or even parenting advice she’s always there. She was always there to answer me. All of the teachers have been nothing but amazing!They potty trained my daughter very quickly and have taught her so much. This school is clean, efficient , welcoming and I would recommend them to everyone that I know.
