Goddard Schools Celina

Great school, great facilities!!

We cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience at Goddard Celina.
Our oldest daughter, who is now 5 and in kindergarten, spent a handful of months here and still speaks so fondly of her teachers. One of the greatest gifts Goddard gave her was the academic and social foundation to hit the ground running; she was incredibly well-prepared for the transition to kindergarten. We also love that they offer elementary camps, which gives her the perfect opportunity to return to a place she loves during school breaks. It’s a testament to the environment they’ve built that she is always so excited to go back!
Our younger daughter has been attending for a year now, and the growth we’ve seen in her from age 3 to 4 is incredible. A huge part of that is thanks to her phenomenal teachers. Mrs. Burris and Ms. Pillar are absolute gems—they are patient, nurturing, and clearly...

We have had an absolutely wonderful experience at The Goddard School of Celina! My daughter genuinely loves going to school every single day, which says so much about the warm and welcoming environment the teachers and staff have created here.

Since enrolling, I have seen remarkable improvements in her overall development. Her focusing skills have grown tremendously — she is now able to sit, listen, and engage in a way that we didn't see before. She is also understanding concepts and lessons much more quickly, which gives me great confidence in the quality of the educational program here.

A huge thank you to her teachers Noysha and Dayu, who have been incredibly nurturing, patient, and dedicated. It is clear they genuinely care about each child's growth and well-being. Jamie, the admin manager, has also been fantastic — always responsive, communicative, and...

Fantastic experience all around. Engaged owners, clean facility, great teachers and staff….just fantastic!!! We’ve been to a couple others between all 3 kids, including other Goddards, and this is by far the best experience.

Goddard came highly recommended to us by family and extended connections across the U.S., and our experience at Goddard Celina has exceeded every expectation. This has been, without question, the most positive experience our family has ever had at a daycare.

The school is run incredibly efficiently and thoughtfully. From the moment you walk in, someone is always there to greet and welcome you. The administrative team and staff are consistently professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and kind. The curriculum and programming are truly top-notch, and it’s clear how intentional the school is about creating enriching experiences both in the classroom and within the broader community.

The owners Smitha and Justin bring a rare level of insight and care — having come from corporate and healthcare backgrounds and having personally matriculated several of their own...

Very pleased with the progress my girls have made and thankful for the teachers making a difference in their growing minds.

Love Goddard of Celina! The owners and staff and wonderful. Very involved and great with the kids. I feel so comfortable with my kids in their care.

Owners and teachers are amazing! Great communication and my kids love going here! We have been going to Goddard for 3 years now and love everything about it!
