The Goddard School of Deerfield (Northbrook)

As a speech-language pathologist I spend a lot of time visiting daycares. The Goddard School in Deerfield is one of my favorite places to visit. The teachers and staff are incredibly warm and engaging, the learning spaces are bright, clean, and welcoming, and the children appear genuinely happy. There is a nice balance of structure and routine which helps the children feel confident and secure. Every time I visit Goddard I walk out with a smile on my face.

My 2 kids go to Goddard and love it! Great space, amazing teachers.

We've had an amazing experience at Goddard over the past two years and are looking forward to enrolling our second child in a few months. The Goddard team has done a phenomenal job building a community within the school and surrounding community. I truly feel that every teacher, director and owner cares about my child and her success. We've been so impressed by the resources provided to her and the growth she's experienced so far at Goddard Deerfield.

Today I complete four years at The Goddard School of Deerfield!

Though clichéd, its true time flies especially if you engage yourself in useful pursuits and are surrounded by wonderful people. My ability to act as a change agent, helping shape young innocent minds- my children at Goddard, gives me the satisfaction that is second to none.
These four years saw an unprecented, life-changing event- the pandemic that tested the best in each one of us for and I wish to applaud the sensitivity, nimbleness and grit of our extraordinary owners- Jane and Genia for keeping all of us safe at school. Their warmth continues to keep us all together like one large family and makes me feel special.
I am also super lucky to enjoy the empathy and support of our admin!!!
One of the many reasons that has kept me coming back each day are my co-teachers.
A big shout-out...

I'm delighted to share my heartfelt appreciation for Goddard Daycare, particularly for the exceptional care. My daughter has been attending this daycare for a while now, and I can confidently say it has been an absolute blessing. The owner’s dedication and nurturing approach have made all the difference.

As someone who has work in the Early Childhood industry for many years, I wouldn't choose a place for my child where I wouldn't work myself. I'm excited to share my wonderful experience with the Goddard School of Deerfield. Since my now 4-year-old started attending, I've been consistently impressed. Their exceptional program creates a nurturing and stimulating environment for young minds to thrive. The teachers are not only amazing but also caring and attentive. My child has learned a lot and developed a love for learning, thanks to their dedication. It's heartwarming to see my 4-year-old thrive academically and emotionally, and I'm delighted with my decision to enroll and work at the Goddard School of Deerfield!

I don't ever leave reviews because I am always on the go and just don't make the time. However, given that this involves the person that I love most in this world, I wanted to share how much we adore The Goddard School of Deerfield!

The integration of music, Spanish (I come from a Spanish background and having my son learn Spanish is SUPER important to me!), and chess into their curriculum is simply outstanding and in my eyes, sets them apart. Although they are all there to educate our children, they do this with a sprinkle of fun and enrichment, and honestly we couldn't be happier.

Having been in business myself for many years, I truly believe that in any industry there needs to be a good boss/staff relationship. Every time that I take my son to Goddard I can see what an incredibly strong relationship the directors have with their teachers. I see them go...
