The Goddard School

My oldest son enrolled in Goddard in August of 2023. I had concerns because of his special needs. My oldest some began in the one year old classroom and will be transitioning to Pre-K. I cannot say enough GREAT things about all of his teachers. He has learned so much and has grown emotionally, socially, and cognitively. Our second son was born in October 2024 and started the infant room in January 2025z I never worry about leaving our boys as I know our boys are being well taken care of and learning. The administrators are always willing to help and are communicative. Wouldn’t have my boys anywhere else.

Jacie and Maia are the best! Our child love these 2 teachers. The care they give and teachings they have guven our child is amazing

After a terrible experience at another local daycare, Goddard has been a breath of fresh air. Their teachers are wonderful, my son learns so much, and has the best time with all the fun activities they host.

My son has been attending the Goddard School in Hickory Flat for almost a year now. I toured a few daycares before I settled on this one because from the moment I stepped into the school, I felt a peace and reassurance that I didn't feel at the other places and I knew that my child would be in good hands.The level of quality, care, and attention that he receives from his teachers and from the staff are top notch. My son is excited to go to class every day and he has flourished socially and academically. He has made so many friends and he continues to surprise me with his growth and achievements. We love the Goddard School! Highly recommend sending your children here, you won't be disappointed.

We came from a different Goddard that was a bit further away. Couldn’t have had a better experience. Everything is how we wished it to be. Our son loves it and the staff all seem to be happy to be there which is important to me.

We are so grateful for our experience at The Goddard School of Hickory Flat. The teachers and staff created a caring, supportive environment where our child grew in confidence, independence, and a love of learning. He is more than ready for kindergarten, and we could not have asked for a better place to spend these early years. We will always recommend The Goddard School of Hickory Flat to other families!

Friendly staff that is always attentive. My son LOVES it here. Last place he was at he would hold on to my leg when I dropped him off but here, he feels a lot more comfortable and he’s excited to be there!

We’re very happy with the level and care and engagement that goes into our sons day to day

Geoff Highly Recommends The Goddard School to their friends & family!

In 2022, we toured The Goddard School at Hickory Flat on a long list of potential daycares for our incoming newborn as first time parents. And luckily, we knew when we stepped in that this would be the place for him. 4 years later and my newborn son is 4 and about to attend Pre-K at Goddard! And his little sister isn't so far behind him in the 2 year old room. What sets Goddard a part is the great curriculum, the CLEAN atmosphere, and the happy teachers. Coming out of the pandemic, all of these things were important to us. Ms. Mar, Ms. Laurel and Ms. Sydney are amazing! Ms. Dionne is a baby whisperer and it's always nice to have her on the swing staff. The front desk is SO organized and helpful because of Ms. Jenna, Erica, and Kayla. No other program can compare with Goddard!

So lucky to have Goddard in HFlat! As a SAHM transitioning back into the workforce, i had so many hesitations. The care at Goddard has been above and beyond and that is priceless! Love our teachers ❤️

Our children have been attending this school since the new ownership took over, and our experience has been overwhelmingly positive. The teachers we have worked with have been caring, engaged, and consistently demonstrate genuine enthusiasm for working with the children. They create a warm and supportive environment that has had a meaningful impact on our kids' development and happiness.

Our son especially loves attending each day, which speaks volumes about the quality of care and education provided. We are very grateful for the dedication of the staff and only wish we had enrolled our children here sooner. We highly recommend this school to families seeking a nurturing and positive daycare experience.

We LOVE the Goddard School! The kids have so much fun and truly enjoy their time here so much that they don’t want to go home! We appreciate how helpful everyone is at the front office and how organized each day is filled with exciting and learning activities for both our kiddos!

We are so impressed with our experience at the Goddard School of Hickory Flat. The staff are wonderful and always so helpful to answer all of our questions. We also love the daily sheets that show us what the classroom has been learning.our child is learning so much and is so happy there.

Highly recommend. Very professional. My two kids went through Goddard and my wife and i couldn’t be happier.

We have had both of our daughters at Goddard for a total of seven years. The administration and teachers are second to none. I wouldn’t trust my girls’ safety or education anywhere else. They are beyond prepared for elementary school, not only academically, but also socially. I’m so thankful for all of the care and love the school has provided our family. We will truly miss everyone here, but look forward to spending our summers at the summer camp they provide. Hands down, best decision we could have made for our girls.

Our experience at the Goddard School Hickory Flat was absolutely wonderful. The infant classroom teachers were exceptional and always went above and beyond. We would highly recommend!

I gave the Goddard School a perfect score because my daughter loves her school. She loves all of her teachers and they have taught her so much. I will be sad when she graduates Pre-K this year. We will miss The Goddard School and their super friendly and helpful staff in the front as well. I highly recommend!

Goddard school has been wonderful for my new born. The teachers are great and always in a good mood. It is just nice to know that our daughter is well cared for by a daycare and staff that you can trust.

I really appreciate Goddard for all they do and I do feel safe trusting them with my baby girl. Jenna and Erica make the place as stellar as it is. Christina is the best teacher I’ve ever met. Thanks for all you do.

Updated: honestly I can’t thank the staff any more, they are always willing to help me and my daughter. I value them so much.

Goddard of Hickory Flat has made my little one feel so loved and cared for! The teachers here are so attentive and make us and him feel so special. This place is more of a family than just a school. We love you Goddard!!

Wonderful school! We couldn’t be happier with the teachers, directors, facilities and overall experience with the Goddard School. Everyone has taken care to make sure my son transitioned smoothly into the school (as a first-time preschooler). Highly recommend!

Solid school overall! Teachers and staff solid. Highly recommend

Neha LOVED The Goddard School

Nicole is very excited to recommend The Goddard School

We love the Goddard School. My son has been there for four year, my daugter just started this yea and we have never had a bad experience. They has learned so much and just continues the grow. Every single teacher takes the time to get to know your child, even if they are not in their classroom yet- and the relationships stays after they leave their classroom. Such an amazing feeling knowing your child is in great hands when you drop them off for the day!

Love this little safe place for my baby. Teachers are loving and caring and I feel good knowing my baby is in good hands while I am working

Positives : no screens, great staff, clean
cons: lunch is not provided (it’s additional)

Nice daycare with adequate staffing and plenty of activities like art, story time and music time. My son has done very well getting socialize and following instructions from adults. I recommend Goddard to anyone looking for professional daycare.

Our move to Goddard was nothing but the best! The directors and teachers are amazing and make you feel welcomed.
