The Goddard School of South Tampa

Tatiana is the best! Extremely pleasant, very positive and has a great personality. It’s evident she loves what she does and has the best interest for ALL the kids. ❤️

Goddard has done an incredible job with our kids wether it’s been Ms Maya and Ms Jakira in the after school room or Ms Isabel in the annex they have done a phenomenal job with our children creating a loving and supportive environment that our kids have been thriving in

This school is pure excellence! From the teachers , cleaning staff and especially maintenance man Edgar. Seeing him every morning greeted with a smile not only to myself but my kids as well. Thank you for making us feel so at home.

I love Tatiana Pryce ! She helps my kid learn effectively and has such a warm spirit ! As a fellow mom she is one I can connect and always appreciate! I love her so much I highly recommend befriending her !

Ms. Maya is amazing! My daughter loves her. She is very knowledgeable and meets children exactly where they are.

Ms. T is the best! Her and Ms.Latoya are the best duo for the kids. They always seem to have them on a schedule that fits them both and also makes the the children comfortable! So sweet and very humble women teaching our kids. Very grateful for the two! Oh and let’s not forget they potty trained my son in less than 3weeks!

Ms.maya is a 10/10

Ms. Maya is a fantastic afterschool teacher! She’s super patient and connects so well with the kids. Her goofy, fun personality always brings smiles and laughter, making the classroom a joyful and welcoming space for everyone.

Ms Maya is amazing! Max absolutely loves his time in afterschool. On Friday, Ms Maya evidently “did” some of the girls hair and Max wanted his “done” too. She gave him a Mohawk that he loved and wouldn’t take out for bath and bed time that night! Needless to say it looked hilarious the next day when he wanted the bands out. She knows how make Max feel special and he listens and respects her so well! She’s fair and fun for the kiddos!

Ms. Peri is the best of the best! Most amazing teacher out there!

Triana is a wonderful teacher to have. Her willingness and patience to reach each child is truly a great technique to have teaching these young minds!!! The kids love her

Ms.Kira is an amazing afterschool co-teacher! She’s hardworking and always brings a fun, positive energy to the classroom. We work really well together as a team, constantly communicating and supporting one another to give our students the best care possible. She’s also super funny and makes every day enjoyable—not just for the kids, but for me too!

We love Ms Brianna and Ms Ilis in Infant 2 and Ms Barbara and Ms Stephanie in Bridge B class. Both of our kids are excited to go to school every day because of these amazing teachers.

Brianna is an amazing teacher. She is awesome with kids.

The Goddard School of South Tampa is a wonderful school from the teachers to admin. My child learned so much while he was there and was ahead of his classmates.

Our daughters have been at Goddard for over 2 years, and we only have positive things to say about the school. There is a great sense of community amongst the staff, children, and parents. In addition, the development in both of our girls since being at the school has been brilliant to see. They have developed nice friendship groups with their classmates, and have consistently experienced warm interactions with their teachers.

We are delighted that we chose Goddard and strongly recommend it to other parents that are looking for a good school / daycare for their children.

Wonderful school, my kiddo loved the classrooms and play areas during the open house.

My son was new to the school and she made us feel at peace when we drop him off every day. He’s upset when we leave him and she’ll bring him to the window and distract him . Now he’s can be left anywhere because she’s made these first times non-traumatic. She truly tries to understand what makes every kid comfortable and how they best learn. She’s an amazing teacher and we’re very lucky to have her..”

Ms. Liza Medina is AMAZING! She is a Kindergarten teacher at the South Tampa Location in Florida. We started at Goddard a month ago. Prior to the transfer both of my kids, who are 11 months apart, attended public school for Kindergarten. I used to dread my mornings with my kids on school days. They used to scream, fight, and tell me they hated school. My heart would break forcing them to go, every morning. Because of the fights they missed a lot of school days and fell behind. They didn’t know their letters, numbers, or how to write their name properly. I honestly felt like a failed mom. I searched for a small school setting and The Goddard School was the answer to all my prayers. We do travel about 30-40 minutes in the morning but it’s such a pleasant drive. My kids LOVE to wake up, get dressed, and in the car to head to Ms. Liza’s class. They know almost all their letters and...

We are so happy with our daughter's experience at Goddard School of South Tampa. The staff is wonderful and caring, and we really appreciate the consistent and positive routine they provide. It's a great environment for learning and growth!

We are thrilled to be a part of the Goddard community. The teachers truly love and respect all of their students. The teacher-parent and office staff communication is exceptional. I love knowing that when I drop my kids off they are in great hands with the care and attention they are given. Our children have developed an inner sense of confidence, independence, and a love of learning thanks to their education there.

Very amazing

Love Goddard! The teachers and staff are amazing. It has been such a warm, educational, and fun experience being part of the Goddard family.

The education our boys are receiving at Goddard of South Tampa exemplifies the Goddard name and program. From making our shy little guy so confident that he is becoming the life of the party to working with our 1 year old on his development daily we couldn’t be happier.

The teachers are amazing and the administrators make everyone who walks through the door feel welcome (adding to the level of security we feel as parents knowing that everyone is recognized). The education our two boys are receiving is incredible. Having conversations about the life cycle of a caterpillar at dinner with our three year old is mind blowing! We are so happy to be part of the Goddard of South Tampa family.

Our two children were enrolled at Goddard for the past 2 years. Our daughter was in their preschool class, and our son started in the infant classroom all the way to preschool. Both of them loved their classrooms - teachers are friendly, it's a safe environment, and they have an incredible array of extracurriculars and community engagements. Most importantly, they felt loved and nurtured to learn. The administration and staff are very responsive and go out of their way to make everyone feel welcome. We will be back for summer camps!
