The Goddard School Tustin

This school is amazing! We love our teachers in Dazzly Dolphins. My son has been here since the opening of the school we’ve had such amazing teachers and made wonderful friends. The classrooms are clean, organized and the students have so much fun

We started our son here when he was 5.5 months and we couldn't be happier! His teachers truly care about him (special shout out to Ms. Leticia and Cozy Cocoons 2 team) and always give us thoughtful updates. The administration is also fantastic (thank you Ms. Chelsea and Ms. Preeti)! Our son is loved and supported here and we have peace of mind sending him to Goddard Tustin!

Our little one started at this preschool two weeks ago in Cozy Cocoons class, and we’re already so happy with our choice. Ms. Esme, Ms. Araceli, Ms. Lan, and Ms. Ana are incredibly caring, patient, and attentive. They take such good care of her and help her settle in, even making sure she feels comfortable enough to nap — which is not always easy! We really appreciate their gentle approach and the warm environment they create. I highly recommend Goddard School.

We couldn't be happier with our experience at The Goddard School of Tustin! From the time we enrolled our daughter when she was 14 months old, we've been impressed by the caring environment and exceptional staff.

While it took our daughter a few weeks to adjust to her new surroundings, she now thoroughly enjoys attending school each day. Her teachers in the Cuddly Cubs class—Ms. Irina, Ms. Deanna, and Ms. Preeti—are simply wonderful and take such great care of her. We're also grateful for the warm and attentive leadership of owner Ms. Preeti Patel and director Chelsea Roe, who have created a truly nurturing atmosphere.

The facility itself is outstanding: new, clean, modern, and perfectly equipped for babies and young children. The location offers plenty of easy parking in a nice open area, which makes drop-off and pick-up stress-free. Speaking of which, the...

Goddard has been our daughters first daycare and I'll admit I was nervous about leaving her for so long for the first time and was anxious to find the right place. Chelsea was so wonderful and communicative during the first few weeks as both my daughter and I adjusted to spending our days apart. She welcomed me to call and check in any time and she'd immediately get a report on how my daughter was doing. The teachers were warm and welcoming and it wasn't long before my daughter was happily going off to school each morning.

I really appreciate the photos and updates they send out on the app multiple times every single day and look forward to seeing what my daughter is up to. The curriculum is a fantastic blend of social skills, emotional skills, practical skills, and school readiness and I can see my daughter learning a growing and making friends. She talks about school...

Little KK loves going to day care. Took her about a week to get used to it but now she's been there for almost a year and loves going. She does little art projects, we get pictures of her having fun every day through the Goddard app, and she is learning so much. She loves her teachers and her teachers love her.

The school itself is amazing, clean, and safe. We toured some other ones in the area and are so glad that we chose this one. Everyone at the school is so kind and caring. One time little KK got a vaccine at lunch and was upset and having a hard time sleeping at nap time. But the director of the school took her to her office, turned off the lights and held her until she fell asleep to make sure she got a good rest.

If I could give six stars, I would.

Our experience with Goddard’s Cuddly Cubs 1 classroom has been outstanding. Ms. Deanna, Ms. Irina, and Ms. Preeti are exceptional teachers who bring warmth, patience, and genuine care into the classroom every day. They take the time to understand each child’s needs and personality, and they consistently create a nurturing environment that supports both emotional and developmental growth.

We really appreciate the thoughtful communication, the structured yet playful activities, and the gentle guidance they provide throughout the day. Our child absolutely loves coming to school and has grown so much in confidence, social skills, and curiosity. As parents, it gives us tremendous peace of mind knowing our little one is surrounded by teachers who treat the children with kindness and respect.

We’re deeply grateful for everything the Cuddly Cubs 1 team does. Thank...

I’m putting my son in school as a 1-year old so his attachment to me is extremely high. The teachers have all held him as much as he needs so he feels secure. Love getting updates on their day and curriculum. Everyone has been really friendly.

Goddard is our son's first daycare and naturally we were nervous about leaving him in the care of others at first. However, it did not take long for us to know that we made the right choice with Goddard when a few weeks in, he exclaimed on the car ride home "I love school!" The facility is new, the cleanliness is top notch, the curriculum is stimulating, and the staff are all very warm and professional. Mrs. Preeti is both personable and professional and extremely dedicated to running an excellent daycare. Mrs. Chelsea is lovely and does a great job communicating with parents. Most of all, our son's two teachers - Mrs. Cintia and Mrs. Tahereh are absolutely WONDERFUL. We can tell that they truly love children and have a way with teaching the kids in a patient yet firm manner. Our son has learned so much from his teachers and often surprises us with the new things he has...
