The Goddard School of Lakeway

We’ve been with this daycare for over five wonderful years—since our child was just six weeks old—and it has truly become a second home for our family. From day one, the staff has been nothing short of exceptional: warm, attentive, and deeply caring. What has always stood out to us is their ability to retain a diverse and loving team of caregivers who clearly love what they do. This consistency has given our child a strong sense of security and belonging throughout the years. Even throughout COVID we were able to consistently rely on Goddard for safety and security for our children. Since we don’t have family in the area, I’m at a loss for words trying to explain how much the Goddard family meant to us during those uncertain and scary times. We will be forever grateful.

Beyond the day-to-day care, this daycare has created an incredible community that has supported our...

We moved to Austin a few years back and had a 2 year old and 3 mo old enter Goddard school. We are so glad we found them. The kids have absolutely thrived and as an added bonus we have made amazing friends along the way. The staff and teachers are wonderful. They care about development and overall well being of our kids. We just love it there. 10/10 would reccomend

My daughter has learned so much since starting at Goddard. She was delayed in her speech and now she’s talking. I’m so grateful that we started here!

Simply the best! From the teachers to the administration, Goddard lakeway goes above and beyond.

We’ve been at Goddard for 6 yrs with 2 littles and just love the staff there. We chose Goddard Lakeway based on their play based style, convenient location, competitive prices, and extended schedule compared to LTISD. Our first child started there at 3 yrs old and graduated their pre-k. Our second child started at ~1.5 yrs and will continue through pre-k. So we’ve seen how most of the classrooms are run. The teachers just love the kids and work milestone-based learning in a fun way. They incorporate special visitors (bookmobile, balloon artist, etc) regularly and we love that the kids can enroll in enrichment classes during their normal day (dance, sports, gymnastics). Highly recommend considering Goddard Lakeway!

Enrolled my 2 year old son this March. Super happy with my decision. Great teachers who are kind and loving, very polite and helpful front desk staff, an upper management that’s kind enough to address all your questions and concerns. The place is super clean and kids are well taken care ❤️ Special thanks to Ms. Kelsie, Ms. Sancha, Ms. Alicia, Ms.Yoeling and Ms. Margot! Arjun loves you all!

We have been so thrilled to be a part of the Goddard family. I feel very confident dropping my daughter off every day knowing she is loved and cared for. I am very grateful at the responsiveness of the staff as well when I call or message a question during the day. There is never any judgement or frustration and as a parent, I truly appreciate the support. We love Goddard and highly recommend to any family seeking care for their precious little ones!

What a wonderful school! The staff and teachers here are exceptional. My granddaughters come home so happy every day, and they've learned so much already. The supportive atmosphere and diverse range of activities have been incredibly beneficial for their development. We couldn't be happier with their experience here!

Can't say enough GREAT things about Goddard School of Lakeway. The directors and administrators are beyond nice and caring. Classrooms are always well kept. We have had 1 child go through the school and another 1 currently enrolled. I have no concerns or doubts that my child is well taken care of on a daily basis.

We are so thankful for Ms. Caroline, Ms. Iris, Ms. Monica, and Ms. Maura! We feel safe and confident in their care for Mason and Emma. We also love their open communication with us. We love our Goddard community and the administration. Ms. Alicia, Ms. Kelsey, and Ms. Sancha are incredible, accommodating, kind, competent and supportive women. So thankful they’re leading the school!

We’ve been very pleased with the care from the Goddard School staff for 5 of our grandchildren. They love our kids and communicate with us daily. What else can you ask for?

We love Goddard School! We are new to the area and so glad we found Goddard for our son. We put him in at 3 months and they eased any anxieties and provide him the best care. There is a secure check-in and check-out process and we get multiple photos updates a day. The staff is wonderful and truly so caring. We love them!

Our son spent five incredible years at Goddard Lakeway, and as we reflect, we can’t help but feel overwhelmingly grateful. From the very beginning, the entire team—whether it was the amazing teachers, the attentive staff, or the caring owner—welcomed us with genuine warmth and kindness, making us feel instantly at home.
Every day, we felt reassured knowing that our son was not only safe but also surrounded by genuine care. The facilities were spotless, secure, and thoughtfully designed with every child’s needs in mind. One of the things we cherished most was the regular updates and photos from the teachers. These glimpses into his daily activities made us feel connected, even when we couldn’t be there.
The curriculum was everything we could have hoped for—engaging, fun, and balanced between play and learning. We watched our son grow, both socially and academically, and...

Great school! My daughter and son just started during summer break and everyone was very nice to them. I’m very impressed with the school so far!

Goddard is amazing!! The teachers are really friendly and treat you like family. My son definitely looks forward to going to school everyday!

The staff is beyond wonderful - they take the time to know each and every student and parent. It is clear they are invested in their student's well being and experience at school, and we as parents are grateful beyond words for their sincere care. As for the curriculum, we've seen our son grow leaps and bounds since he enrolled at Goddard. He's matriculated through 3 classrooms from infant to now toddler and every single day we are blown away by the things he is learning, his social skills, and as well as his verbal skills and developmental milestones. The staff is extremely responsive - a phone call never goes unanswered. We are also updated throughout each day through the app with photos, a daily summary and a weekly digest - and we find this transparency is invaluable!

Moved to Goddard from a different schedule. We started out in the older baby room at 9 months. My daughter is now almost 2 and we really like it. I feel like she is safe and take care of with respect. I like that they do activities through out the day to stimulate her and that she gets outside time. The front office staff is amazing, always responsive, and receptive.

From the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed. The staff are incredibly caring and attentive to each child's needs. They go above and beyond to ensure every child feels loved and supported. The facilities are clean, organized, and safe, providing a stimulating environment for learning and play. I have peace of mind knowing they are in such capable hands. I highly recommend to all the parents near this location!!

Goddard has been such an amazing place for both of my kids! From their friendly and professional staff all the way to starting a little earlier than most daycares that accommodates our families early schedules. This place feels like family and I my kids are happy every single day. Goddard communicates well and their tidbits of sending me photos of my kids enjoying the different activities always warms my heart.

This place is full of love and warmth for our kiddos. We love being a part of the Goddard Lakeway family!

Best school ever, if I had anymore kids I would definitely send them here, no questions asked. They take amazing care of my daughter and treat her like family.

My family and I love the Goddard Lakeway! The staff is truly amazing and cares for our children like their own.

Highly recommend this daycare. Staff is great and my daughter has really enjoyed being part of the school.

We couldn’t say enough great things about this location! Our son started at 5 months old and loved all his teachers as he moved from classroom to classroom. The Directors were all extremely involved and knowledgeable about the day to day for each child. We had multiple times where my son would sit in the lobby and refuse to leave with me at the end of the day! We recently moved out of state and are seriously missing our Goddard Family!

My son is almost 2 years old at Gooddar and I couldn't be happier with everything he has learned and the love he has received. The entire team is excellent.

Our family loves Goddard! They have been so good to us and our girls love “going to school” in the morning. The hours are great for our work schedules and there’s a definite sense of community amongst the family and kids ♥️

I can't say enough wonderful things about Goddard! The teachers and staff are absolutely amazing. They create such a loving and nurturing environment where my child truly thrives. They go above and beyond to ensure each child feels safe, valued, and has the opportunity to learn and grow.

This daycare truly feels like a second home for my child. He adores all his teachers and is always eager to go to school, which speaks volumes about the care and attention they receive. The staff also organizes fun and engaging events throughout the year, making it even more special.

Another huge plus for working parents like myself is that Goddard has fewer closure days compared to other options in the area. This flexibility is invaluable and makes it so much easier to manage our busy schedules.

Without a doubt, this is the best daycare in the area. I highly...
