The Goddard School

We had a great experience at Goddard School of Parsippany and having our one year old son here. The owners are excellent and very caring. We really appreciate the Director of the school as well as she is very involved in the process and very knowledgeable. In addition, the teachers of the school are very organized and bring great energy which results in the children having a lot of fun.

We started our son at Goddard two weeks ago, and it has been an amazing experience! We love the program and the skills he’s learning. The director, Stacy, is fantastic—very hands-on and always responsive when we reach out. She’s a true leader!

The owners are also incredible. Pavan is easy to talk to, very detail-oriented, and actively involved in the daycare. He keeps an eye on all the kids and stays aware of everything happening inside.

The teachers are wonderful, especially Alex, who is great with the kids. She connected with him instantly and we are comfortable knowing that she creates an environment where our son and other kids will thrive. Our son loves her! She’s very focused on teaching new skills while kids have fun and has been a big help in transitioning him away from habits like using a blankie and drinking from a milk bottle.

Nerale and Pavan were amazing. So welcoming to the point that my 7 month old son would be excited to see Pavan in the morning and wouldn’t let him go if Pavan was holding him when I came to pick them up. Nerale and the director Stacy always have bright smiles in the morning, so no matter how harried you’re feeling, you suddenly feel much more relaxed. They were very communicative, letting me know about everything from a diaper rash to a fall.

You also receive an end of day report, sometimes with pictures, about how much your child ate and slept. The doors always remain locked. The classes are small with a high child to caregiver ratio, and each kiddo has their own crib and cubby.

I will say an added lovely touch and sense of comfort (specific to my experience) was that the owners’ infant daughter was in the same class as my son.

They’re all...

We absolutely love The Goddard of Parsippany! The entire staff, especially our daughter’s teacher, Ms. Noran and the owners, Ms. Nerale and Mr. Pavan are extremely caring, friendly, and attentive. Your child is treated like family. The school is a safe and nurturing environment. The curriculum is also well structured promoting both academic and social development. Our experience has been great and we highly recommend this school!

We love the Goddard team in Parsippany! Our son went there for a year and a half and had such a great experience. The staff is friendly and accommodating, and Ms. Ayo, Ms. Navdeep, Ms. Emily, Ms. Alex and the other teachers were so wonderful, we can’t say enough about the experience our son had while he was there. We fully recommend it!

We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Goddard School in Parsippany for our son, Gio Vega. The staff is incredibly attentive, caring, and professional, creating a safe and nurturing environment where Gio has truly thrived.

The curriculum is well-structured and engaging, fostering not only academic growth but also creativity and social skills. Gio looks forward to going to school every day, and it’s heartwarming to see how much he’s learning and enjoying his time there.

Thank you to the amazing team at Goddard Parsippany for all that you do. We highly recommend this school to any parent looking for a high-quality learning experience for their child!

It's really hard to put into words the exceptional and nurturing care the Goddard School of Parsippany provides for the children and their families. The owners, Ms. Nerale & Mr. Pavan, the directors Stacy & Ashley, and the teachers Ms. Nicole, Ms. Anu, and Ms. Alex are nothing short of phenomenal. Every single employee treats you and your child like family. They quickly become your village, rooting for your child every day. They are patient, welcoming, and comforting - a safety net if you will. You can tell this is so much more than a mere job to them. Their love and care for children radiates in everything they do. My son goes to school happily every morning. He has learned so much already, and the activities they provide are always age appropriate tailored to engage kids and develop their skills. My heart feels at peace leaving my child there everyday. There's nothing more...

My son likes it ☺️

I cannot say enough good things about The Goddard School of Parsippany. I really like how they have redesigned the entire school. The cleanliness is behind compare to other schools that my children have been enrolled at!!

New owners Nerale and Pavan have been amazing. They are very accommodative and attentive to our needs as well as to our son.
They have done numerous upgrades to the facility greatly improving the overall experience. They are also excellent communicators, reaching out frequently and updating us on everything that we need to know. Our son loved going there and teachers Ms. Gowri and Ms. Rosa were simply wonderful to him. They both are so patient and kind. Also want to add that they all put on an absolutely fantastic and touching graduation ceremony for the pre-k group.
