The Goddard School

Very good school. Nice and caring teachers for my infant. Hours are friendly for working parents. Lots of children development activities. Daily reports are done very well. Read more >

We have had a very positive experience at Goddard. My son is new to the school, and the teachers and staff have been very friendly and compassionate and helped him transition to a new environment. I love receiving so many pictures through the day, and he is always playing happily when we arrive to pick him up. We’re so glad we chose Goddard! Read more >

The Goddard School of Florham Park has been an important part of the development of my children. The skills they have been taught exceed those expected for their age range. From the owner to the director to the teaching staff everyone is so caring and can be considered extended family members. Our children will be thoroughly prepared to attend a district school when the time arrives. We know we will always be able to rely on the staff of Goddard of Florham Park. Read more >

My son attended Goddard School for a year and 4 months. He’s now thriving in first grade thanks to his KG teacher, Ms. Kim, who prepared him perfectly both academically and socially.

My son is a bright boy, but also stubborn and easily gets distracted (as many boys are, I believe). Also, it was sometimes difficult for him to express his feelings and situations as English was not his native language. Ms. Kim was so patient and caring in building trust and educating him. Thanks to the school, his language and social skills improved a lot. When we flew on vacation last summer, the flight attendants were impressed when he politely asked, “May I have orange juice, please?”

The classrooms here are safe and clean, and all the staff and management are attentive and reliable. The school provides a lot of fun events and activities such as Holi, petting zoo, quail eggs... Read more >

We highly recommend the Goddard. Both of our children have had the amazing opportunity to be nutured, loved and cared for by such amazing teachers. We have established life-long friendships there and wouldn't trust anyone else with our kids. Read more >

We highly recommend the Goddard School at Florham Park for its educational program and social integration. As a new family moving to the area with our then 4 year old son, we were eager to have him get started in a program that was welcoming, supportive and reliable. The Goddard at Florham Park delivered on all levels. The teachers and management welcomed my son with open arms, gave him the reading and math skills needed for him to move on to Kindergarten and helped him to make new friends. We were pleasantly surprised by the number of development related activities the school promotes, including outdoor and indoor gardening and caring for young animals. There were a number of parent and child events at the school as well that fostered a sense of community. A special thanks to my son’s teacher, Ms. Kim for her dedication to her students and to our son. We will miss the Goddard at... Read more >

Our twins thrived at the Goddard school in Florham Park. They loved all of their teachers and learned a lot in the two years they were there (3-5 yrs old). From the owners to the staff, everyone is pleasant and helpful. They create a safe and fun environment for kids, with lots of creative activities, and we especially liked the STEAM emphasis. The place is very well-run. Would highly recommend! Read more >

Our twins have been at the Goddard school for 2-1/2 years. It was the best thing we could do to have them at this school. The director is professional and the workers very kind. The best are the teachers: our kids moved from one class to the next and have always been excited and motivated to start their day at this school because of the love and care they received there. Also if there is a small issue with a school friend, the teachers and staff is immediately looking to solve any problem and you feel they really take care of the kids. The program is great and every day full of different activities from early morning until late afternoon. We recommend this school and will miss it when our kids will go to elementary school this year! Read more >

We absolutely love the Goddard school of Florham park! My son started a month ago and has been learning so much already, I am so impressed. He also had a speech delay and went to speech therapy for a year which helped him some but with being in school 5 days a week now he has broadened his vocabulary and is speaking more understandably. I am so happy we decided to go with the Goddard at Florham park, because the staff is very knowledgeable, amazing, kind, and so loving with my son, and all children for that matter. Read more >

My son has been attending the Goddard School Florham Park since he was 7 months old. He is now 4.5 years old and some evenings has to be begged to leave the fun he is having in the classroom. The curriculum and schedule have offered him structure that he otherwise would not have. He’s had teachers that have changed his life, and who have helped me as a parent cope with the stress of raising a happy, healthy, well rounded child. He has had the benefit of growing up with a number of children that started as infants around the same time; the low turnover speaks to the comfort the school brings to other families as well. I would recommend the Goddard School Florham Park to families looking for structured reliable childcare. Read more >
