The Goddard School Concord NC (Coddle Creek Market)

Hands down the best daycare in Concord. Front office staff and all teachers are amazing. Blessed that our child ended up here. Read more >

Covid has provided an interesting introduction to parenthood for us- our son is about to turn 2 and is in Ms. Rose’s class. We’ve never known a world where parents could walk their children back to the classrooms, but Ms. Rose has done a great job in making us feel connected to how our son is doing in class. Ms. Rose goes above and beyond in the cleanliness of her classroom to reduce the risk of illness among the pandemic. I think my favorite aspect is it feels like she treats our son like he’s the only child in her class. We will miss Ms. Rose when our son graduates to the next class! Read more >

I wish I could give the staff here more than 5 stars! My son started here full-time this summer and we have been blown away by the quality of the programming, communication from teachers/staff, and (most importantly) the true love they show to students each and every day. He has grown so much and is so happy attending. I can't express how much peace they have given me knowing he is in such great care while he is there! Read more >

I am a first time mom who is very protective of my baby. I have been pleased with Goddard school since my son started at five months old. The staff clearly loves my baby and takes very good care of him. Now that he is over a year old he is excited to see his teachers and he loves them right back. There’s no better feeling than knowing that your child is happy and that he is loved and cared for when he is not with you. The curriculum and many other educational things they do during the day is a wonderful added bonus. Read more >

I am very pleased with the Goddard School. The teachers and staff are compassionate, caring people who do their best to create a loving environment for children. Ms. Dee, the director, is phenomenal. She has great rapport with the teachers and seems to know all of the children and their parents by face or name. A good director is key.

I cannot say enough good about Ms. Rose, the toddler teacher. Ms. Rose is THE BEST. She is high energy, which is perfect for a room full of 1 year olds. She is always skipping, singing, and engaging the kids, and you can tell that the children love it (and her). She treats the children like her own and you can tell how comfortable they are with her. What I like the most is the relationship she builds with parents. We talk about my son's growth and development and she makes sure to support the things we are working on at home. Everyone...

We love Mrs. Rose ❤️ She played a huge role in making sure our sweet girl was comfortable after moving from out of state. I don't know what we would have done without her. She put my worried mind at ease and for that, I will be forever grateful. Thank you Mrs. Rose ❤️ and congrats on Teacher of the Month! Read more >

I’m a first time mom who was nervous about taking my baby to daycare. Goddard has done a fantastic job of taking care of my daughter. All of the teachers are wonderful and they are so good about keeping with baby’s schedule or answering any questions. Laura is amazing - she’s so knowledgeable about what she does and with how each baby is doing every day. The director and owner are also both really great, and they assist you with whatever you need. I highly recommend bringing your child here. Read more >

Totally appreciative for the dedication and commitment this school provided my daughter and I for the past 2.5 years. Every business has there ups and downs, but through it all this school has remained my constant. From the first day, the teachers have challenged my daughter mentally and she is now a 4 year-old enrolled for Kindergarten a year early. Working on skills from speaking a foreign language (Portuguese/Spanish) to writing her full name — my child has the educational foundation she needs to succeed in her next chapter of elementary school. Special thanks to Ms. Asia, Ms. Richelle, Ms. Ginger, Ms. Rosana, Ms. Dee, and Mrs. Malvika. Read more >

Excellent school, teachers, and staff! Always warm and welcoming! We are so glad we found the Goddard school- our son was nurtured and encouraged from day 1! Read more >

Love this place! My daughter was with them for several months just to get used to a school environment before Kindergarten and loved it. She learned so much and made many friends. Read more >

We could not be happier with any other place! TGS at Coddle Creek Market is wonderful. Our son goes to pre-k two days a week and you would think he goes every day with the way he talks about his adventures, friends and teachers. The structure of teaching is amazing and definitely satisfies our son’s thirst and excitement for knowledge. He retains what he learns and absolutely loves his teacher, Miss J. She is amazing and a wonderful person. Lisa, the Assistant Director, knows well how to successfully get a school to maintain high standards while showing that caring and attentiveness to each individual student is the most important goal. That’s a powerful combination. The owners and Director have always been pleasant while running a top-notch facility. We will be sad for my son to leave when he enters kindergarten but plan to send our daughter there in the future! Read more >

I am very happy to put both my kids in this school...teachers are very friendly....and most important is me and my wife both feel peace of mind after sending my kids to there..they are in good hands...i usually i don't give review but their (TEACHERS AND STAFF AND THE OWNER )effort in making a wonderful space for children s , need to be appreciated...

You can also read my husband's review on this page - I wanted to add my own reflections as this school has been so wonderful for our daughter. We enrolled her for a short space of time between when we moved to the area and when she was going to start "big girls school" at 5. Sofia's life had gone through a bit of upheaval as we had to move quite suddenly to the US from NZ, she welcomed a baby brother into the family, and we settled in to living with my husband's family - whom Sofia hadn't spent much time with previously. The school was so understanding and supportive of this change in her life. They made her feel special when she started and continuously supported her to be independent and resilient in her new circumstances. Their curriculum is fantastic and their emphasis on child safety and wellbeing is remarkable. Many thanks for making our transition so much easier! Read more >

We had to enroll our daughter there for a short time as we just moved to the area. The entire staff was incredibily warm and welcoming. Every time we stepped in the building, each staff member took the time to smile and say hello.

They take security very seriously with check-in and a handprint door opener.

Using the latest technology we are kept up to date with our daughter's daily activities and even sent photos directly to the app. It's wonderful to know exactly what they are learning and how it ties into the curriculum.

Highly recommend this school for anyone looking at a good choice for their child. Read more >

We recently relocated to the area and our 10month old started going here in March. We have truly loved our experiences with the staff, director and owners. They have always been supportive of our infant and encouraging his creativity with so many activities and crafts. My only critic of the school is I wish they had extended hours. Read more >

Great School with super friendly staff who are always available to answer any questions or concerns. My daughter started here in May and is enjoying it so far. She goes three half days per week and lately has been requesting to go more often to see her friends :) We are so pleased she's liking it and that the transition being away from home hasn't been too difficult.

Wonderful staff! Clean and bright facility! Read more >

My 2 year old loves going to his school. The management and staff are very friendly and trust worthy ppl. They take good care of the little ones. Read more >

As new parents, we knew very little about daycares. While researching, we heard good things about Goddard and we decided to register our baby at the newly opened location in Concord (Coddle Market). Our son is cared for by teachers who truly care about him. The teachers love to explain all the things our son is doing and learning at school daily. The owners of the school have been a great help to us in transitioning to the school environment. We are glad that the our son enjoys his time at the school. Read more >

My husband and I are very happy with The Goddard School. We knew we needed something for our son to get him interacting more with other children and adults. He goes three half days a week and loves it.

He cried his first day and I felt so bad until I received my first email and it had him laughing and playing. After his first week he stopped crying, for the most part, and just goes in to the room to start his day. His first question is always about Ms. Denise and if she's there.

He comes home singing songs, telling stories, and counting to ten in Spanish. He just began bringing home a book, alphabet letter jar, and reading journal. He loves doing the letter jar with pictures and how to spell the words. It is great to hear him want to go read his book and talk about his letter.

The Goddard School was the right decision for us and what we needed. Read more >

The Goddard School has exceeded all my expectations! My two year old has blossomed into a confident, curious, and independent young lady while at the Goddard and under the care of Akira.

Akira thank you for the tireless effort you have put into making our daughter's first year at the Goddard as wonderful as it has been! She is always so eager in the morning to go to school and give you a hug which makes me feel at ease knowing that she is spending her day in a loving, nurturing and educational environment.

This is fairly new school. My 3 year old daughter has found a new home here. Being diabetic at such a young age is quite a daunting task to manage but the staff in school have been very cooperative and understanding. The owners (Malavika and Basant) and staff always go an extra mile to take of the my daughter and I have seen the same kind of behavior for the other kids. Miss Denise and Miss Nikki are awesome .
When I first saw the school I was quite skeptical as it was new But now after almost 3 months I am very happy that we made the right decision to put our daughter in this great school.

I really could not have asked for better place for my daughter.

My sincere Thanks to Malavika, Basant, Miss Denise and Miss Nikki. Read more >

We love the Goddard School. It's so clean and inviting. The staff and owners are always friendly. Highly recommend this location! Read more >

A brand new school (September 2016), Goddard has really found its place in our little one's heart! He started at the age of 18 months. This was our third attempt at a daycare, and we have finally found a good fit. The owners are not only professional, but approachable as parents and genuine, down to earth people. The staff have all been great and we are always greeted with smiles. My little one doesn't want to leave when I come to pick him up, and he especially loves the fun outdoor play area designed for the "under 2" crowd. Really pleased with Goddard at Coddle Market.

If you are looking for trusting people to look after your little one, Goddard is the place. Our 2 year old loves coming here and doesn’t even look back when we drop him off. The teachers and owners work really well with your wishes and children’s development. He does different learning activities for them that I can’t even get him to do at home. The best part is that you get pictures and updates throughout the day and a complete daily report on what your child did that day, what they ate and how long they slept at nap time for. We highly recommend them and look forward to sending our newborn there soon too. Read more >

We enrolled our daughter recently and have been continually impressed by The Goddard School - Coddle Creek. The teachers and owners always strive to provide the best care possible for our daughter.

Not only do they follow a daily curriculum, but they care how she is doing on a daily basis and get to know us as a family - this is incredibly important when you are transitioning a child into child care for the first time.

Our daughter has a great time there and the things she has learned while being there are truly amazing. We started teaching her sign language at home, but after going to The Goddard School on a daily basis the number of signs that she knows and her ability to use them has increased substantially. In addition, the creative activities that her class does daily is great to see via videos and photos.

Overall our transition to full... Read more >
