The Goddard School Roscoe Village

Our daughter absolutely loves Goddard and “coming to school” she has been here since 5 months and is now a little over 2. Joli Sara and their team are great and always supportive when questions or concerns arise. Our daughter is thriving and so much of this is due to the wonderful teachers and staff here ! Since the most recent ownership took over there’s been great updates events etc for the kids and parents truly creating a community feel!

Our daughter started at Goddard Roscoe Village when she was 3.5 months and I was very anxious about leaving her. From her first day she is happy every time we drop her off and pick her up. Her teachers (Ms. Brenda, Ms. Katherine and Ms. Viridiana helped so much with the hard transition and are such a joy to see each day! Everyone at Goddard always makes our family feel so loved! Even though she is an infant, her class has so much fun with her music teacher and little activities each day.

Both of my kids attended Goddard and they’ve grown so much. The staff has been so attentive and supportive with their development.

This daycare provides a nurturing and engaging environment where the kids thrive, learn and feel truly cared for.

We have been sending our son here for almost a year starting when he was 1 yr old and I would highly recommend Goddard Roscoe Village. My son loves going to “school” and I am always impressed by the teachers, staff and all the activities and work the school puts in for the kids. It was such a hard decision to send my first baby to daycare and now a year later, I couldn’t be more happy with our decision. They are great at keeping us updated throughout the day with pictures and videos and do lots of fun holiday related activities , etc.

We had an exceptional experience with Goddard School. Our twin three-year-olds had so much fun and adjusted quickly. From an educational perspective, the environment covers a range of skills, from music to math to learning comprehension to socializing. Unlike a Montessori, they do incorporate more play and dress up, but they have a more focused learning environment than say a day care. (However, they keep daycare hours and that was tremendous for us to be able to keep our girls there until 6pm!) The staff were all incredibly friendly, communicative and accommodating. We are especially thankful to Joli, the head of school, who was so attentive and supportive.

Organizationally speaking, Goddard is also very strong: We loved the app that shared photos of the kids throughout the day, and detailed updates on their meals, naps and BMs. It was a very helpful tool. The parking...

This day are is amazing. I’ve seen so much growth in my 3.5y/o in the short time he’s been attending the Goddard School (started in August of this year [2025]). The teachers truly care about the kids and their wellbeing (both physical and emotional). Their goal is not just to give you a place to take your child everyday- they truly want to give your child a good start in life!

Love the school…our kids have done so well here! The new director Joli is amazing! She’s very caring and attentive to the kids’ needs. We are very happy with the balance of activities, curriculum, and play.

Ryan gave The Goddard School Roscoe Village an AWESOME Recommendation

Very friendly and welcoming staff. All inclusiveness daycare.

We are so happy with Goddard-Roscoe. The teachers and team have helped our little one grow, and kept her safe. They are wonderful teachers who care.

They've done a wonderful job at making sure my daughter feels comfortable and safe. Her teacher is absolutely great and the daily pictures, videos, and sheet really help ease my mind. I appreciate how all the directors and teachers know or recognize my daughter. It really helps build the sense of community.

Ryan had a great experience with The Goddard School Roscoe Village

We’re so grateful to the team at Goddard for the incredible care, support, and love they showed our daughter since she started at Goddard as an infant of just over 3 months old. During her time, we watched her grow into a confident, curious, and talkative little person. We know the nurturing environment at Goddard played a huge role in that.

The teachers and staff create a space where kids feel safe, encouraged, and seen. It was great to know our kid was in good hands every single day. And since the new ownership took over in June, 2024, there’s been a tremendous effort to form a thriving community beyond the classroom.

We’re thankful for the foundation it gave our daughter to build on. We’d happily recommend Goddard.

Great school with caring and compassionate teachers

I can’t say enough good things about Goddard! The staff is incredibly attentive, nurturing, and truly dedicated to the children’s well being. My child always comes home happy and excited about their day, whether it’s engaging activities, learning opportunities, or just having fun with friends. The facility is clean, safe, and well-organized, making me feel confident that my little one is in great hands. Communication with parents is also top-notch, they keep us informed about daily routines, special events, and any concerns that may arise. If you are looking for a daycare that feels like a second home for your child, I highly recommend Goddard.

Alex thinks you should try The Goddard School Roscoe Village

My three year old loves it here. The teachers are great with some really fun and engaging electives like music and Spanish.

We had the absolute pleasure of partnering with The Goddard School – Roscoe Village for picture day, and we were truly impressed. We visit a lot of schools, and this one stands out in the best ways.

Director Joli, Assistant Director Jessica, Regional Director Rebecca, and Owner Boris were warm, welcoming, and perfectly organized from start to finish. Their teamwork and attention to detail created such a smooth, positive experience—not just for us, but more importantly, for the children.

The entire staff was kind, professional, and so connected with their classrooms. You can feel the love and care in every corner of this school, and it was an honor to capture such joyful moments.

Thank you for welcoming us in and for the incredible work you do every day.
