We are very please with the quality and standard of the Goddard school. The teachers, directors and owners are on the same page when it comes to communication and commitment on providing best care to our sons. They always go above and beyond on making sure the kids are learning in the safe and healthy environment. There are also offering extra activities for parents & kids through out the year such as Movie night, Breakfast with Santa, parents breakfast day, and Prom. Thank you very much for taking care our children. We are very grateful to be part of the Goddard School Round Lake. Thank you!

She absolutely loves it and all the fun activities that she gets to do. She asks every night what the next day will entail and can't wait to go! She comes home every night ready to tell me all about her day and what she learned or what she made, etc. I would definitely recommend this center for anyone! All the teachers are kind and engaged and you can tell they care about what they do. They care for the children and it's just amazing to see as a parent.

The environment does not seen well managed or supervised outside or inside. Son came home with boots on wrong feet multiple times, and once with no diaper. They seem to have no structured learning and provide no daily summaries of what the children do that day, unlike at another school he attends. In fact I get a completely different review of my son from his other school teachers than at this school. This school seems very limited - a one trick pony & incapable of addressing special needs. The school is inflexible with credit toward vacation time and just wants your money and are indifferent to our son's needs.

The work is about one grade level higher, but our daughter seemed to be thriving in the intense curriculum and looked like she was having fun everyday! I really appreciate the small classroom size and one on one attention. This may not be a school for every child or parent but if you want a good discipline in academics and if you say the safety is first; this is it. Another plus for me is how clean and organized the school is. I was happy to see such a clean facility. Lastly, the teachers were wonderful, as well as the whole staff! The out of school activities were so well coordinated. Thank you Ali Kucuker

They provide a healthy breakfast and lunch everyday for the kids. The director was beyond helpful and communicated with us throughout the transition. She was flexible and so welcoming. My daughters teachers are so incredibly sweet and made the transition for her so much smoother than I could have ever hoped for. I love getting daily photos and updates on my daughter and knowing what they are teaching her. They always have fun activities going on and get families involved. If I could give this school 6 stars, I would.

We've been sending our kids to Goddard School in Cary for two years and we couldn't be more happy!…read moreWe are very glad we found Goddard in Cary. The owner, directors, and teachers are second to none. They are all absolutely amazing. Not only is Goddard a daycare but it's also intended for early childhood development. There is no doubt our kids are ahead of the educational curve for their age and Goddard has definitely played a part in that! We feel completely comfortable leaving our kids with the Goddard staff every day. There is not one employee at Goddard we don't approve of. Many of the teachers at Goddard have studied early education/childhood development, and it shows! Our kids have loved every teacher they've had and they look forward to going every day! As with any daycare there is going to be a cost. Goddard hasn't raised their prices since we've been there. They do everything in their power to keep costs down. Anyway, Goddard is hands down the best daycare we could imagine and we look forward to the time we have left at Goddard!

The communication between the teachers and parents is outstanding - they give personalized care, send frequent updates, and I always feel that I can reach out with any questions I have and the teachers would address them quickly. In particular, my son needed some medical assistance in the infant room and all the teachers were very responsive, taking special care with him and following instructions that I gave them, while keeping me in the loop. The primary room is also great, the class is diverse and the kids are always busy with many activities. This school is fantastic if you are looking for more of a home day care feel, all of the teachers are friendly and wonderful with the kids.
