The Goddard School of Chantilly (South Riding)

A heartfelt thank you to Ms Traci, Ms Zeynep, and Ms Anjali for being such amazing teachers. We are also grateful to The Goddard School for creating such a nurturing and positive environment for children to learn and grow.

The care, encouragement, and dedication shown by the teachers and staff truly make a difference every day. Thank you for all that you do!

Thank you for making school such a happy place to learn and grow for our child.

We love this school! If it went all the way to high school, we’d send our girls here, ALL the way through! We started here in 2023, and each and every class and teacher is a superhero, paving the way for a highly educated, wonderful future! From horses class with Miss Tracy & Miss Heather, to Whales, with Miss Amina(so nurturing at just the right moments), to Koalas, with Miss Aceena & Miss Kyla(🦋The Potty Training Queen🦋), to Giraffes, with Miss Lawanda( She is MAGIC, with love, reading and dancing, and gently firm when necessary🥰), to Jaguars with Miss Lilly & Miss Rebecca(we lovingly call her the “superhero teacher”. EVERY TEACHER IS WONDERFUL! This school is worth ever penny!

My child had an amazing experience in Ms. Rebecca and Lilly class. Their warmth, creativity, and dedication created a safe and joyful environment where learning felt fun. We truly appreciate the love and attention you give to every student. Thank you for making such a positive difference during such an important year. We love them so much!

Our family has had such a positive experience with Goddard School and a huge part of that is because of the amazing teachers. Specifically Ms. Sara, Ms. Anjali and Ms. Manju. Their level of care, compassion, and attention to the children is truly outstanding.

From the moment you walk in, you can tell they genuinely love what they do. They are patient, encouraging, and incredibly thoughtful. It is reassuring as a parent to know your child is spending the day with people who treat them with kindness, respect, and genuine affection.

These teachers have created an environment where children can learn, grow, and feel comfortable being themselves. Their communication with parents is excellent, and they consistently go above and beyond to make both children and families feel welcomed and supported.

We are very thankful for everything they do and highly...

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Goddard School on Tall Cedars and especially the incredible teachers. In particular Ms. Sara D, Ms. Anjali T & Ms. Manju. Their caring, compassionate, and nurturing nature shines through every single day.

They create such a loving and safe environment where children truly feel supported, encouraged, and valued. It is clear how much they genuinely care about each child’s happiness, growth, and well-being. Their patience, kindness, and positive energy make such a difference, and it gives parents tremendous peace of mind knowing their children are in such capable and loving hands.

The dedication these teachers show goes far beyond the classroom. They make learning fun, celebrate each child’s unique personality, and consistently go above and beyond to help every child feel special and confident. My child has...

Our daughter started at The Goddard school almost 3 years ago, and we have had a wonderful experience since then. The school is always clean, welcoming, and creates a true 'wonder of learning' for children. The owners, Risa and Brad, are also very present and engaged, which adds to the positive environment. Over the years, our daughter has shown academic progress and also grown so much in confidence, and we feel lucky that she had wonderful teachers such as Ms.Rebecca, Ms.Lilly, Ms.Sara, Ms.Anjali, Ms.LaWanda and Ms. Claudia, whose care and encouragement made a meaningful difference in her journey.

It has only been a few months since my son started at The Goddard School, but we have already had such a wonderful experience. He enjoys going to school every day, and I can already see positive changes in his learning, confidence, and social skills.
A special thank you to Ms. Sierra, Ms. Allison, Ms. Deepa, and Ms. Hasina for being so caring, patient, and supportive. Their kindness and dedication truly make a difference, and it gives me peace of mind knowing my son is in such a loving and nurturing environment.
We are very grateful for all the teachers and staff and appreciate everything they do for the children every day.

We moved to Chantilly VA from Alexandria VA a couple of years ago. We couldn't be happier with how our son has progressed over the last two years at Goddard. The staff, teachers and owner are loving people!! Highly recommended for anyone with a young child.

PS: Special shout out to Ms Lavanda & Ms Glenda!

We are so grateful for the love and care our son receives from Ms. LaWanda and Ms. Glenda. They have created such a warm, supportive classroom environment where he feels safe, happy, and excited to learn every day.

He has learned so much through learning centers, morning meetings, books, games like Simon Says, and outdoor play. We also truly appreciate how the teachers and management listen to and implement parent feedback.

The sweetest part is hearing our son say, “I’m a monkey and Ms. LaWanda is my hanger,” because he loves cuddling with her so much. It speaks volumes about the comfort and trust they create for the children. Highly recommend this preschool!

Nobody does it better than the Goddard School of Chantilly - South Riding!!!

Sending a personal shout out to Ms. Lawanda! She has been such a caring, patient, and positive influence in our child’s life this year. Her kindness, encouragement, and dedication create a classroom environment where children feel safe, supported, and excited to learn every day.

You can truly see how much she loves and cares for each child, and it shows in the way the kids respond to her with so much happiness and trust. Thank you, Ms. Lawanda, for your hard work, compassion, and the countless ways you make a difference every single day. We are so grateful for everything you do!
