The Goddard School

Both of our sons are currently attending The Goddard School and have developed so well. The teachers Ms Mary, Ms Crystal and Ms Helen provide excellent care and communication. There is never a worry on what they will learn. We do hope to continue on and look forward to what the future holds with Goddard.

We’ve been sending our son to The Goddard School for about four months now, and we absolutely love it! From the very beginning, Ms. Maribel and Ms. Charia have been so kind and attentive—they genuinely care about the kids, and it shows in everything they do. As a first-time mom, I was a bit nervous about leaving my son, but I feel completely at ease knowing he’s in such good hands.

Now that he’s a little older, he’s moved into the First Steps classroom with Ms. Amanda, Ms. LaSasha, and Ms. Kassandra. While it’s only been a short time in this new class, they have already been wonderful. Transitioning to a new classroom at this age can be tough—for both the child and the parents—but they’ve made every effort to help him adjust smoothly.

They’ve also been amazing at sending frequent updates throughout the day, which gives me so much peace of mind. I love that...

I am so thankful for the Goddard School. The owners, the front office, Ms Andrea,
Ms Traleece, Ms Sarah and all the teachers, assistant teachers, and staff are wonderful. Everyone is so friendly, caring and professional. The communication is great.
It is so nice to see what the kids are doing during the day with the pictures they post on the school app. Special shout out to
Ms Janelle, Ms Rana, Ms Mary and
Ms Saraih, they are the teachers for my granddaughter and grandson’s classes.
My granddaughter is graduating in June completely ready to start kindergarten. I’m so glad my grandson will continue for two more years having a wonderful learning experience in this school.
Thank you Goddard !!!

My son just started at Goddard and it has been such a positive experience. The personalized orientation let us know exactly what to expect and there were no tears (from parents or baby!) on day 1 because the room was so warm and engaging. Ms. Michelle, Ms. Tina, & Ms. Whitney are so caring and attentive with all the kiddos, and organize super interactive activities. We love getting the pictures and details of our son’s day everyday.

We enrolled our daughter to the Goddard School over 6 months ago and we couldn’t be happier! She started in a toddler class and is now in Pre-k1 and teachers in both classes were great! The school plans good curriculum for the children and from time to time plans for special events such as a fall festival, Santa Clause pictures… very nice add-ons. There is a very nice playground just outside the school and an indoor multipurpose room where they go on a daily basis if the weather does not allow to go outside!

In particular, we want to say thank you to our daughter’s Current teachers Ms. Chaimae and Ms. Valerie! They are both so loving to our daughter, they enjoy teaching and create fun learning environment! They are very communicative with parents and they really connect with the kids! We’re very pleased to see our daughter being happy to go to school!

When my daughter first started daycare at 11 months, she really struggled with stranger anxiety and separation distress. Thankfully, Ms. Maribel and Ms. Charia were so patient and understanding, allowing her to adjust at her own pace and slowly build the trust she needed.

As a first-time parent, leaving my little one in the care of strangers was definitely challenging. It was hard to concentrate on work knowing my child was with people I didn't know well. But Ms. Maribel and Ms. Charia offered us so much comfort and reassurance that our baby was in loving, caring hands. I remember feeling pretty nervous when we found out it was time for her to transition into a new class.

Now when I drop my daughter off at her new classroom, it really warms my heart to see her excitedly run to her teachers. Ms. Kassie, Ms. Amanda, and Ms. Sasha are fantastic. My daughter is...

Goddard is an excellent school. My two-year-old daughter has wonderful teachers, and I have complete confidence that she is safe and well-cared for. I want to express my gratitude to Ms. KaeKae and Brittany for their exceptional work. Ms. Crystal and Helen were also fantastic and kind teachers. The facility is clean, modern, and well-lit with ample natural light. Additionally, the school provides frequent updates throughout the day via an app portal, and the communication from the administrators is excellent. I’m not sure what else you could want for your child!

My family has been very pleased with our experience at Goddard Alexandria (West). My 2.5 year old toddler had been there since he was about 7 months, so he has been in several classrooms and gotten to know many of the faculty. Goddard is a warm, welcoming environment staffed by true professionals who love what they do and love the kids. My son learns so much at school every day and runs into school every morning excited to see his friends and teachers. Big shoutout and thanks to his current teachers, including superstars Lizett and Shantel. Lizett especially teaches him so much every day. He also thrived with Helen, Kassie, Crystal, and Maribel. We also love the dedication of the front office/director team, Keke, and so many others. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Goddard to other families in the area who want somewhere safe and nurturing for their kiddos.

We love the Goddard School and so do our children! They have learned a tremendous amount from the amazing teachers and have so much fun every day. The staff is also very responsive and open to questions and feedback. Their current teachers, Ms. Michelle, Ms. Keyanna, Ms. Chaimae, and Ms. Valerie are wonderful and very experienced. We know our children are in good hands in their classrooms!

Ms. Michelle is amazing! She’s been great with my infant son, helping him adjust to daycare.
