Goddard School of River Park

We feel incredibly fortunate to have found Ms. V—she is the reason our son is here! From the moment we started a little over three months ago, it was clear that her classroom is something truly special. The level of stimulation, creativity, and thoughtful activities she provides is like no other. I’ve had experience with other schools through my older children, and I can confidently say that nothing compares to the care and intentionality Ms. V brings to her classroom.

My son absolutely thrives under her guidance. I see him learning, growing, and exploring every single day. It brings me so much peace of mind knowing he’s in such loving and capable hands at such a young age. We couldn’t be happier with our experience and are so grateful to have Ms. V in our lives!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Goddard School River Park, specifically the infant class. My daughter (who is now 4) started with the infant teacher, Ms. V, when she was three months old. We had such an exceptional experience, that when our second daughter was born, we knew we wanted her to spend time with Ms. V as well. Our second daughter did not start until she was a little older (10 months), but we could see a positive change in her social skills and speaking abilities as well as her desire to read and interact with others almost immediately. When we asked if she could join last minute, they worked to accommodate us. Goddard School, Ms. Rana and Ms. V have been such an amazing blessing in our lives and we couldn’t be more grateful. We trust them completely and their safety standards are well above other places we’ve seen. They go the extra mile to ensure kids are safe...

Our son has attended Goddard since we moved to Sugar Land, and as he gets ready for kindergarten, we’re so thankful for the supportive environment they’ve provided. The teachers truly care and he has grown socially and academically. He loves his teachers and has made many best friends. We will be sad to move on when he starts kindergarten, but recommend Goddard to anyone looking for a great place for their little ones!

Fantastic school - Ms. A, Ms. Olga, and Ms. Basma are all loved by both of my daughters. They’ve been attending Goddard for the last year and we’ve been very impressed. The owner is also very responsive and professional, and they accept the military child care aware subsidy.

We are so happy with The Goddard School ! The staff are incredibly caring and loving. They give you positive vibes in the morning creating a warm and nurturing environment where our toddler thrives. We love getting daily updates with pictures of our child's learning experiences. All the teachers are kind and enjoy what they are doing. The Director Ms. Rana always wears a big smile and greets the kids with love and warmth. Ms. Nada is amazing and my child feels so loved and special in her class. He can’t wait to go to school every morning to spend time with her. We love how diverse the school is, my toddler’s class is so colorful with friends from many different cultures and backgrounds. We feel completely confident leaving our child in their care and would highly recommend them to any parent looking for a top-notch pre-school.

We are so happy with The Goddard School especially under the circumstances we were in having to abruptly putting our son into daycare. The staff was very accommodating and incredibly caring and loving to our son! Everyone gives positive vibes everyday which creates a warm and nurturing environment where our toddler thrives! We love getting daily updates with pictures with what activities they are participating in! Also, we love the daily reports of our child's progress, especially with the amount food being consumed as our son was such a picky eater but not anymore!
Our son’s teacher Mrs. Wafa is a child whisper and she’s absolutely wonderful! Mrs. Wafa has made such a huge impact on our son through this transition and we cannot appreciate her enough! Our son can be difficult at times and her calm/collected personality definitely helped our son cope with the new environment...

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. SAFE AND SECURE FOR PEACE OF MIND ❤️
2025 Update:
My son continues to go to Goddard without any issue and even receives speech therapy with the luxury of our therapist coming to him. There can be nothing better that that. We saw him.go from saying nothing except Mama to full sentences and being independent AH! I am always going to be grateful for Mrs. Rana and my son's teachers Mrs. Ariana, Mrs. Neda, and Mrs. Soha ❤️

2024 Update (2023, and 2022 Update below):
I enrolled my 3rd child with my older two now going to regular school. My 3rd one was a very shy quiet child and has Tremendously improved going to Goddard when it comes to social skills and learnings. Usually school at an early age is frowned upon culturally but sending him to this school is doing the child a favor and giving him that Kickstart he would benefit from. He is...

Three of my kids are attending here and its a great place. Its very clean and the staff is very kind. Communication is good and we always know evverything about our kids for the day. It took a while for them to adjust but once they did, they enjoy it here.

A wonderful place

The Goddard School of River Park has been wonderful. It is clear the teachers and staff really care for our daughter and she feels safe and loved there.

I love this school. My daughter has progressed so much and all the staff members are awesome. And my daughter loves it here as well.

The Goddard School has been amazing for our family! Our older child, now in kindergarten, started ahead in reading levels thanks to the strong foundation she built here. She’s grown so much, both academically and socially, and still loves visiting her former teachers when we pick up our younger one. Our 4-year-old is thriving, gaining confidence and social skills daily. Every teacher has been incredibly caring, and as a parent who is particular about my kids’ environment, I’ve always felt at ease. Ms. Rana and the admin staff truly make Goddard feel like family, taking a genuine interest in each child. We’re so grateful for this nurturing and supportive school!

Excellent care and great teachers and curriculum

Goddard has always been amazing. Both my kids have gone there for years (youngest is still there full time, oldest isnnow in kindergarten but still goes for after school care). Teachers were amazing and they do a great job taking care of the kids. My daughter has special needs and they've been amazing at accommodating her and helping her learn. Could not recommend them more highly

My son is always welcomed with joy and hugs every single day. Even on mornings when he doesn't want to go to school he is in a great mood when he sees Mrs. Rana at the entrance.

The Goddard School of Riverpark has been such a blessing for us. Their director, Rana, has been so commutative from the beginning and she truly goes over and beyond to help accommodate when we need it. I worried about my son in the beginning as he is shy & guarded with people he doesn't know/trust yet, within days of him starting he was attached to his teacher (Ms. Nada & then again with Ms. Olga - They have such patience and are naturally nurturing- we are so thankful for them)

If you're comparing schools, I toured over 10 of the top ranking within 25 miles and I am SO happy I chose Goddard.

Thank you to all of the wonderful ladies (Ms. Cynthia, Ms. Vanessa, etc.) up there that give me one less thing to stress about during the work week.

The Massies

Very good..

Mrs Rana (the director) and all the teachers at Goddard Riverpark have provided nothing but exceptional education, care and a loving community for my two children. My children were dealing with turmoil at home as their mother and I were separating but because of all of the staff at Goddard Riverpark, they came through better than many would. The school provided them a loving, nurturing environment that always provided them with consistency. As much as we try to not allow divorce to disrupt our children's' lives, it does. The teachers and staff at Goddard made sure despite all the changes, they always had a steady, healthy environment at school so I could focus on their health and happiness at home.

My two little ones are very happy here and have adapted well. The teachers are responsible and caring, and my children have felt a lot of kindness and beauty.

Nice school and also staff are polite and helpful every time .

My son has been a student at the Goddard school since he was about 9 months old. He is now 2 years old, and has grown through 4 different infant and toddler classrooms. His teachers have been Mrs. V, Mrs. Suad, Mrs. Wafa and Miss Ariana. Each of these teachers have been exceptional, kind, caring and trustworthy. They truly care for the children and take pride in their roles. My son is engaged everyday with activities, and he has grown so much. He surprises us daily with his advanced words and things he has learned at school. Plus, the school is a great community and the parents are so nice and kind, that it creates a great environment for the kids to build life long friends. This school has been a blessing to us and we look forward to enrolling our new baby soon!

Have really been impressed with how caring and attentive the teachers and staff have been to both my children. The teachers do not move around a lot so the kids really get to know and grow with the teachers which we loved compared to another daycare we had experienced previously.

Very pleased with Goddard and happy we chose them.

My Toddler recently started at The Goddard School in River Park, and I couldn’t be happier so far. The director made the transition so easy and comfortable like we're family. She always knows what’s going on with my child. This gives me so much confidence in them. Highly recommend!

Mrs. V is the best!
