My husband and I visited several schools in our area before deciding that the Goddard School in Howell hands down was where we wanted to send our 4 year old son. We couldnt be happier with our decision. He loves going to school! To us they really stood out above all others in terms of their curriculum and staff. As soon as you walk through the door you know you are stepping inside a place where you know your child is going to be safe, learn so much and have fun doing it and also loved. Not to mention it is so very clean! The entire staff is amazing. Very friendly, extremely helpful and you can tell they really care about your child on an individual level. I cant say enough good things about Miss Carol the owner. She is fabulous! She knows each child personally and is always available to answer any questions you may have. She is super nice too! Another thing that we find really great is once a month they try to have an activity at the school for the kids and parents to enjoy which is fun!! We cant wait to send our younger son to The Goddard this Sept. We would and do highly recommend the Goddard School in Howell to anyone and everyone trying to decide where to send their child to school.

My daughter started at the Goddard School in Howell when she was three years old, she loves going to school, she has learned so much over the years, from a,b,cs to reading, solving math problems, and a vocabulary that often leaves us surprised that we are having a conversation with a six year old. My wife and I always felt comfortable and reasured that our daughter was in a school that was concerned about her safety and well being as much as we were. The staff at the school is always pleasant, helpful and professional, Miss Carol the owner and the entire staff have a connection with all the children, it truly has been a pleasure having her atttend there, during the school year and the summer program that they offer. The summer program offers a great environment for the kids to enjoy the summer with a calendar filled with activities, events and projects all the while continuing the education process. Our daughter graduated in June and will be going to public school, thank you Miss Carol and staff for making these past few years such a pleasure, you guys are the best!!!

The Goddard School in Howell, Miss Carol, and the entire Goddard Staff have become our second family over the last 4 years with our 2 kids. Both of our kids have gone through the program since they were babies - we were truly sad when our daughter graduated from Pre-K this year but are so thankful that we have a few more years with our son :o) Each day that I drop them off I have full confidence that they will be very well taken care of and loved on by the teachers. They are constantly learning and socializing while there and they LOVE going everyday - makes it so much easier to leave them each day. Our daughter is very well prepared to start Kindergarten this year and Im sure she will continue to grow and learn in the classroom, thanks to the help, guidance, and dedication of Miss Danielle and Miss Ashley this last year. Cant say enough good things about our experiences there and would recommend The Goddard School to anyone and everyone looking for a day care for their families to call a second home - because thats exactly what it has become for us!

I have watched my son just blossom and Goddard has played a huge role in it. I am so very pleased with our experience at Goddard and will not hesitate to recommend it to anyone in the search. The teachers are truly wonderful with the children and work very diligently to keep them engaged. I see my child having a great time but I know hes also learning and preparing for life outside of Goddard. I cant imagine a better place to prepare for the big wonderful world of 1st grade! The environment provided for these kids is highly enriching, safe and clean! It is easy to see that there is ongoing effort to expose the children to a wide range of educational experiences and everyone is so willing to accomodate any special request a parent might have. I feel grateful to have a place such as this where I know my son is receiving great care, learning and is genuinely cared for. I am thrilled to be part of the Goddard family!.

After visiting several schools in the area my husband and I both agreed that The Goddard School stood out from the rest in terms of its curriculum, facilities and staff. Over the past two years we have never regretted that decision. We enrolled my daughter the September before she turned two and did the same for my son a year later. Every time we walk in the door we feel like we are walking into a place where our children are safe, loved and constantly learning. If we have questions the owner, director, teachers and aides know our children personally and can answer them based on their interactions, rather than making us feel as if they were just another name on the class list. This makes us feel that our children are being cared for individually rather than just part of a group. We highly recommend this school to everyone we meet and we are very happy to be a part of the Goddard Family.

We currently have both our children enrolled at the Goddard School in Howell. The atmosphere there is warm, friendly, and loving. It is a place where our children feel at home. They love going to school there and learning through play and structured activities. All staff members are super friendly and have close connections with the kids. The staff always seems to go above and beyond our expectations! One aspect we love are the daily notes sent home discussing all activities during the day, from stories that were read, songs sung, letters learned, time of their naps and how much they ate during lunch. We go over the notes during dinner and review with the kids to help reinforce the numerous items learned during the day. We couldn’t be happier to have sent our kids to the Goddard School. We think it is the best daycare in the area by a longshot, and would recommend it to anyone looking.

From the moment I first walked in the door for my tour, I knew that my son (3) would thrive at this school. Prior to enrolling in Goddard, my son had been to two other preschools. I would have to drag him to school every morning crying, and every night, he would get anxious at the thought of going to school the next day. Carol, the owner; Ellen the Program Director; and his teacher, all set my mind at ease. My son has difficulty inserting himself in social situations, and the teacher is very sensitive to that need. I find that the owner and staff have a very open door policy, and I can reach out to them whenever I have a concern or question. The curriculum is second to none, and I am astonished every day at the new things my son is learning and the experiences he is having. For the first time, he is excited and happy to go to school. Thank you Goddard!!!
