Goddard School -- McKinney (University Drive)

We’ve had all three of our children attend The Goddard School of McKinney (University Drive), and I can say with full confidence there’s no place like it!

Our older two boys attended several other daycares over the years, but Goddard set a new standard we didn’t even know to hope for. Our youngest has been here from infancy through Pre-K, and she’s absolutely thriving.

Both boys have attended summer camp here for years, and one still goes to the after-school program. One of our son’s was diagnosed with autism at age 5, and from the very beginning, the owner Robin and the staff have been nothing but supportive, understanding, and proactive. They’ve worked closely with us to help him feel safe, included, and confident. He’s now 9 and still looks forward to going. That kind of consistency and care is rare, and we don’t take it for granted.

The staff...

We’ve been at Goddard for a year now and couldn’t be happier! All the teachers have been wonderful (there is not one that I’ve not loved)! The office team is fantastic when you need them for anything. Robbin is AMAZING! I’ve never seen a center owner so involved and in the center often. She is personable and pops out of her office to greet the families at drop off/pick up. I’ve never needed her for anything but it’s obvious if I did, she is available and approachable!

shout out to Ms.Sheika, Ms.Taylor, and Ms.Melika in the the turtles classroom for creating a safe and fun learning environment!

I can’t say enough good things about this school. The staff here is the best of the best!
I have sent 5 children through this program, 4 graduates and one with one year remaining. This school has become a second family to us and it’s hard to believe the end is near. We are abundantly grateful to have had this school be such an amazing part of our children’s upbringing.

Goddard has been a wonderful experience for both of my kids. My oldest absolutely loves summer camp—this is his second year attending! My little one is really enjoying her First Steps class, and it’s been such a joy to watch her grow and transition so smoothly. The teachers go above and beyond, and the front desk ladies are always kind, welcoming, and supportive. They truly put me at ease every time I drop my babies off. We love this place and are so thankful for all their hard work and dedication!

We moved our children to the University Drive Campus of Goddard in McKinney in September 2021. Since then the development of both kids has been amazing. From the front desk staff of directors Christina, Morgan & Bailee, to the owner Robbin and all the teachers, this is the best possible school for young children. It is like family, can't recommend them enough!!!! This is a true preschool preparing them for life not just a daycare where they watch your kids while you work. My son is now in their after school program Kids Club and there for the summers and gets mad when we come pick him up because he is having so much fun!

Absolutely love this place, teachers and community that they have created for my children. All the teachers are wonderful; Ms Bailey is one of the best and excited that we’re in her classroom ❤️
