The Goddard School Tustin

We couldn't be happier with our decision to enroll our son at Goddard of Tustin. The facility is brand new and always clean and the teachers and staff are amazing. Being an only child, we feel that our son's interactions with other kids and the attention that his teachers, Ms. Stephanie and Ms. Aly, give to him are making dramatic improvements in him hitting important milestones. The first few weeks were a rough adjustment for my son, as well as for my wife and I, but we were comforted by the incredibly caring staff. Ms. Chelsea even ate lunch with him on her lap when he was particularly upset one day. 100% worth the heart-wrenching adjustment process. We love receiving the picture updates each day keeping us informed of the fun activities he is doing. Seeing his big smile when we pick him up is reassuring that we made the right decision.

We are very happy with the school’s diverse and engaging curriculum, as well as the positive and nurturing environment it provides. The school creates a space where children can explore, learn, and grow happily, and we truly appreciate all the care and attention given to their development.

A heartfelt thank you to Mrs.T from the Flamingo Class. Her patience, warmth, and encouragement have helped our child build good daily habits, learn many important skills, and feel confident in learning. We are so grateful for everything she does for the children.

We could not be happier with our experience at Goddard, Tustin. From the moment you walk through the doors, you feel the warmth, care, and genuine love the teachers and staff have for every child. The classrooms are bright, welcoming, and thoughtfully designed to encourage curiosity, creativity, and confidence.

Mrs. Sulema & Ms. Evelyn, are truly exceptional—patient, attentive, and deeply invested in each child’s growth. They take the time to understand every child’s personality and needs, creating a nurturing environment where children feel safe, supported, and excited to learn. Communication with parents is excellent; we always feel informed and included in our child’s development.
The curriculum strikes the perfect balance between play-based learning and early academic foundations, helping children build social skills, independence, and a love for learning....

We've had a wonderful experience at The Goddard School! Our son is in the Cozy Cocoons infant room, and we couldn't be happier with the care he receives.

The teachers—Ms. Esmeralda, Ms. Araceli, Ms. Lan, and Ms. Ana—are all so warm and attentive. They truly care about each child and make the classroom feel like a second home.

We're also impressed by how many activities they offer, even for infants. Our son is always engaged and learning something new. Highly recommend!

Our son has been with this school since its opening day in 2024, and our experience has been nothing short of exceptional. Currently in the Peppy Pandas class with Ms. Cheryl, he has also flourished under the care of Ms. Sulema, Ms. Elizabeth, and Ms. Evelyn.
The consistency across the teachers is truly impressive—every educator we’ve encountered has been dedicated, professional, and genuinely kind. The facilities are brand new, impeccably maintained, and always clean. We especially love the curriculum; it provides a perfect balance of academics, hands-on experiential learning, social development, and physical activity. We couldn't ask for a better environment for our son!

We’ve had such a great experience with the Goddard School of Tustin. I was nervous about sending my child to preschool as he had never been away from me, but the teachers made us feel comfortable right away. The activities are creative and fun, he’s learning so much, and the teachers and staff are all amazing and truly go above and beyond. The building is clean and new, and it’s clear they really care about the kids.

After relocating from Korea to the U.S., we spent an enormous amount of time and effort searching for the right preschool for our son, Sean. We toured countless schools and carefully compared the pros and cons of each one. In the end, we realized that none of them could compare to The Goddard School of Tustin—and enrolling our child here was absolutely the right decision.

From the very beginning, the warmth, passion, and professionalism of the staff stood out. Director Preeti and Ms. Chelsea are truly exceptional. Their dedication, kindness, and genuine care for the children are unmatched. The school’s facilities are spotless, extremely safe, and thoughtfully designed for young children.

One feature we especially love is the indoor playground, which is equipped with sun-shade coverings and soft turf flooring—providing a safe, clean, and comfortable...

We started our baby at Goddard when they first opened, and we have had the most positive experience. We toured other centers but this one was the most friendly, clean and organized and after being with them for 1.5 years we love them!

Our baby started in the infant classroom with Ms. Elizabeth, Ms. Claudia, (assistant Ms. Kaitlyn), and at the time because it was new he almost had 1:1 ratio attention. Since then he has moved up classrooms to Cuddly Cubs 2 with Ms. Nina, Ms. Irma, (and assistants Ms. Fariba, Ms. Bri), and now he’s in Bouncy Bears 2 with Ms. Cintia and Ms. Tahereh. The classroom ratios are still small and it feels like a family. All the teachers and assistants are amazing, knowledgeable and caring. He has grown so much with their help, they teach him new skills, and they are always doing fun, engaging, and creative activities together. He naps so well there...

My son is in Cozy Cacoons, the infant classroom since late September. It has been an amazing experience. The teachers Mses Esmeralda, Araceli, Lan and Ana are incredible at their job and are very caring and nurturing. My son is increíble happy there and compared to a prior Montessori school The Goddard school has been AMAZING!!! The administration Ms. Chelsea an owner Pareti are also very incredible and easy to work with. We are so thankful this school exist and the caliber of their staff is amazing. Thank you very much for taking excellent care of my son.

As a first-time mom, the idea of sending my infant to daycare was nerve-wracking. I toured a few different places, but Goddard immediately stood out. From the moment I walked in, the nurturing atmosphere was clear. The children looked happy, comfortable, and genuinely excited to be with their teachers. That gave me the confidence to enroll my daughter, and it turned out to be one of the best decisions I’ve made.

The teachers are truly wonderful. They are caring, attentive, and supportive not only to the babies, but to parents as well. Like most babies, my daughter went through an adjustment period during the first couple of weeks, but Ms. Leticia, Ms. Tess, Ms. Tori, and Ms. Jennifer were so thoughtful in helping her transition. My daughter quickly learned that Goddard is a safe and loving space for her. Now she is absolutely thrilled to go to daycare each morning and see...
