The Goddard School of Folsom

My kid had a blast in summer camp at Goddard. They had guest visitors every week like the travelling zoo or the mad scientist, and good internal programming. My kid was one of the oldest there and was never bored. I could tell the director runs a tight ship. Everything was clean, organized, well thought out. The summer camp teachers were nice. I wish we chose Goddard for our preschool instead of Guidepost Montessori.

We’ve toured several schools, but when we visited Goddard Folsom, we were truly impressed by how clean it was, how wonderful the staff were, and how secure the campus felt. You could really tell it was a different experience compared to the others. What I really enjoyed most about the school was how open and communicative everything was. The director and owner were always around and ready to answer any questions. There were a few challenges when we first started, like changes in teachers and classroom incidents, but I really appreciated how honest and open the school was with the parents. We’ve only been here for a few months, and so far, our little one is having a great time. I would definitely recommend Goddard Folsom to anyone who really cares about their child’s safety and learning.

My toddler has been attending Goddard Folsom for around a month, and we have been very pleased with our experience so far! Our daughter is 2 and have never left our side, so when she began daycare, she really struggled with separation anxiety. Her teachers were very patient and caring, they also communicate with us to figure out ways to help her adjust. Although it was always hard at drop off with her bawling, I felt comforted knowing that she had teachers that cared. For the first week, I would keep calling the school to check on her, and every time, one of the school leadership or owner would personally go check her for me. I'm so grateful for their patience. She is doing so much better now, all thanks to the effort of her teachers. I'd like to give a special shout out to her teachers Ms. Melissa and Ms. Malina for their patience and support.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Folsom Goddard. Our son and daughter spent four wonderful years here.
From the very beginning, the teachers and staff were caring, supportive, and genuinely invested in our children. They created a warm, safe, and welcoming environment where our kids felt happy, comfortable, and excited to come to school. We’ve always appreciated the care, patience, and attention the teachers give to each child.
Over the years, we’ve watched both of our children grow academically, socially, and emotionally, and we know the teachers played a big part in that growth.
It’s hard to say goodbye after four years, and we will truly miss everyone. We’re so grateful for all the love, patience, and wonderful memories they gave our children. We highly recommend Folsom Goddard to any family looking for a place where their children will be cared for,...

Our son has been at Goddard for almost 4 years now. We have been very impressed with the care he’s received, we have met great friends and he has flourished. Would recommend to anyone who wants that piece of mind that their child is living their best life!

Our son had the most fun here!

My daughter has flourished under the guidance of the leadership and teachers at Goddard. We switched from a different child care provider, where we weren't sure we were getting the most out our child's development. I am certain we made a great choice!

Our daughter joined seven months ago primarily to help her learn English and socialize. The improvement in her communication skills and her ability to interact with other children has been amazing to watch. It is a supportive environment that has truly helped her find her feet in a new language.

Both of my children have attended Goddard and we have had a great experience. My son is now a graduate of Goddard, but daughter is always excited to go to school. She loves her teachers in the Whales class, they’re so kind and caring and she’s learning so much each week. Any issue we have brought up has been addressed quickly and satisfactorily and we are very happy with the school.

We absolutely love Goddard! Our daughter has been going to Goddard for 6 months and is thriving! She's moved up into a new class recently and loves all of her teachers and friends, they made the transition smooth and comfortable for her. She really looks forward to going to school every day! Goddard has given us great peace of mind with our daughter's care and continued growth, she's really blossomed since starting in September - we're so happy we're a part of Goddard!

Goddard has been a fantastic school and experience for our Conor man. The school has been a safe place for him to learn, socialize and develop. We feel he is very well prepared for his next step in life of kindergarten. Thank you Goddard for being such a great part of Conor’s life!

Our child started the Goddard as an infant, it was such a hard decision but we truly loved our experience there. From the very beginning, they made us feel comfortable and supported, and they took such wonderful care.

Our child came home every day excited to show us what they had learned — new words, songs, and little skills. The activities were always fun and creative, and we loved receiving the daily updates and adorable photos. Seeing what they was up to each day was truly the highlight for us.

We’re so grateful to the teachers and staff for helping our little one grow, learn, and build such a strong foundation. This place will always hold a special place in our hearts.

We have had 3 kiddos enrolled here at Goddard and it’s still an amazing school! Our twins are now in kindergarten but started when they were 2.5! It helped them socialize, make friends, and learn so much for their little minds. My 3rd started when he was 20 months old and 8 months later he is still thriving!!! His speech and social skills have 100% benefited from The Goddard Program and he loves learning everything and is just like a little sponge soaking it all up! I highly recommend this school, their teachers really do love their kiddos and that’s what is most important!

As a mom of two, touring schools can feel overwhelming, but our visit to The Goddard School of Folsom truly stood out. From the moment we walked in, we felt so welcomed. The onsite owner, Ms. Kaylee, was warm, genuine, and clearly passionate about what she has built. She took the time to get to know our family and made us feel completely at ease.

What impressed me most was how the leadership team already knew my children’s names and greeted us as we came through the door. Every classroom we visited was full of engaged, happy teachers and children who were clearly thriving. You could feel the positive energy and sense of community throughout the entire school. As a mama, that meant everything to me.

And then we saw the brand-new outdoor classroom… even more incredible in person! It was thoughtfully designed, beautiful, and such a special space for the kids to...

Goddard raised our twins and now having them take care of our third. We love Goddard and can see the difference in having all of our kids enrolled there. Great atmosphere with amazing staff and wonderful results. Would strongly recommend Goddard to anyone how is looking for an outstanding learning opportunity for their young ones. A++

We love The Goddard School in Folsom! We’re so glad we chose it for our daughter. The staff makes us feel completely confident and safe leaving her in their care. She’s excited to go each day to see her friends and teachers, and we really appreciate the engaging learning activities along with the daily reports that keep us informed about how her day went. We’d highly recommend Goddard to any family looking for a caring, high-quality school.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Goddard. The teachers are attentive, genuinely caring, welcoming, and effectively communicate during drop off and pick ups. The school is always clean and organized. The daily schedule balances outdoor time, education, and creativity. Our kids learn so much while there and have fun while we are working. We know they're safe and that is very important to us.

Davione Strongly Recommends The Goddard School of Folsom

Goddard is an incredible first step in a child’s education and development. It has been the decision we've made for our children. It is comforting to know your children are thriving, learning, and growing while creating friendships. Highly recommend! We love it here!

As a family, our top priority is safety and care for our child as he attends school. We find that it is a safe place when we enter and sign our child in. With special codes for each family and an app to unlock the door; it feels like it is Goddard's priority. We are also told not to hold the main door open for people behind us. In each classroom, there is a door reinforcement that is used in case of intruders. Furthermore, the care provided by our son's teacher is welcoming and sweet, we can tell she cares and enjoys her job.

We chose Goddard for many reasons, here are a couple:

Using an app to communicate his activities throughout the day which, includes pictures. The app shares with parents what they had for snack, notes from the teacher and reminders.

We enjoy the events put on throughout the year for the school community such as a Valentine's...

Absolutely love Goddard School they treat my son like family and it's so wonderful to have a village to help us raise our wonderful little guy. They go above and beyond and I love that they have an age appropriate curriculum to help them develop, learn, have fun and feel loved. Thank you Goddard! 🥰

Goddard in Folsom has been the best possible start for our boys. I'm so grateful to the caring staff for making their transitions away from home care as seamless as possible (teachers truly treat the kids and their parents like family). Both of my boys have thrived from the thoughtful curriculum that enables them to learn through playing while also building core skills in social awareness/manners, creativity, writing, number and shape recognition, gross and fine motor movement, and vocabulary. They are definitely prepared well for Kindergarten and my kids always leave school happy. I highly recommend this wonderful school to parents who want to make sure they are sending their kids to a trusted and caring environment.

We have been incredibly happy with our child’s experience at the Goddard school in Folsom. The teachers are caring and attentive. The curriculum is organized and creative. Our daughter has been thriving.

We Love Goddard School of Folsom! My son has been attending since he was 16 months old and is 4 now. He gets to learn, play, explore, and is always excited about going. Knowing he is happy and safe with all of his wonderful teachers while we are at work is so reassuring. The staff and teachers are always so welcoming and accommodating. I would highly recommend this place for anyone looking for amazing quality care that is play-based and centered around the children and their style of learning and exploring.

My daughter(20 months) has been coming to this schools for over a year now and she loves it! Through each class she has loved her teachers and the environment they create. We fully trust the staff with her safety and well-being, and appreciate the level of communication we receive. As a family, we really enjoy the extra events that Goddard organizes to really make this school feel like our community.

We love Goddard, Folsom! We are so happy that we chose this school for our daughter. We feel very safe with our daughter's care being in Goddard's hands! She loves going to school to see her friends and teachers; they provide excellent learning activities as well as daily reports so we are kept up to date on what she is doing at school. We would recommend Goddard to anyone who asked!

This is the school my both kids go to, they care about my boys and I see my boys are excited to go to school. This school is one of the best in the neighborhood and I recommend it to anyone looking for good care.
