The Goddard School of Eagan

We have three girls so we have experienced different daycares over time. We are now approaching a year at Goddard and couldn’t be happier with the care. The teachers have been consistent with very little turnover which creates predictability for our kids. They are also generally more experienced and have more education (ie degrees in early childhood) than any other site we’ve been at. I believe this is reflected in the consistency and responsiveness of their care. The facility is very clean. The owner, Kara, is incredibly proactive and easy to get in touch with. I’m notified promptly if my child is hurt, sick, or anything out of the norm happens. We usually have the same teachers at drop off that we do at pick up so they’re able to tell me about my child’s day. When one of my children started to struggle with goodbyes at drop off, they quickly helped make a plan to support her...

The Goddard School of Eagan has provided both my children with an exceptional experience of childcare. We’ve been attending this daycare since they first opened. The communication, cleanliness, and quality of staff is excellent. The owner/directors are so understanding and accommodating to the specified needs of each child and ensure they receive the care they need. They have made the transition to daycare for my youngest and myself as great as it could be!

We had a fantastic experience during the year plus that our twins were at Goddard Eagan. Wonderful facilities, caring and highly communicative staff who find super creative and engaging projects, fun events. The kids loved it too and are thriving in their first weeks of kindergarten.

The Goddard School is absolutely top notch. We moved our kids to Goddard for Pre-K and absolutely loved it. The teaching staff is super devoted, often bringing in things from home to enhance the (already excellent) curriculum. The leadership team and owners are excellent, even when dealing with challenging situations. Always felt there was good communication and stability. Kids grew a ton in their pre-k year and were absolutely kindergarten ready. It's a true gem of daycare.

We love the Goddard Eagan! My daughter started going there since the first day it opened. She is thriving, learning, growing, building friendships and experiencing the world in a controlled safe environment. I trust the place, the team and the management! I cannot think of a better place for my daughter ❤️❤️

We love Goddard! So many fun activities everyday. We love knowing that he is being dropped off in a safe and enriching environment.

As a first-time mom returning to work, leaving my 12-week-old was incredibly emotional—but choosing The Goddard School of Eagan was the best decision I could have made. The staff has shown genuine love, care, and support not only to my baby, who is thriving, but also to me as I navigated this major transition with their constant reassurance and kindness. Their nurturing environment has given me peace of mind and made us feel truly seen, supported, and part of a caring community.

Kara and her team of caregivers are truly best-in-class. Cannot recommend the Goddard School of Eagan more highly. Thank you for providing an incredible experience for our family.

We have loved our experience at Goddard so far! Our son seems to be learning a ton and has so much fun doing all the activities they do in his preschool class. The leadership and all the staff have been super friendly, kind, and communicative!

A fantastic and wonderfully run Early Childhood Education Center. Kara (the owner) is very dedicated to ensuring that the students and staff have the best experience possible!
