When my daughter falls down and gets bleeding knees, the teachers had no 1st aid at all - Being a parent only heard excuses from the teachers and the school leaders. They're not responsive to our concerns at all. If the kids are so young, I would not recommend the daycare to parents because they're not really care kids, and no natural love for kids. You will feel teachers and school leaders protect and secure their jobs, not caring kids as their consideration.I am very upset during my daughter's stay so we leave here as early as possible.

Over time, we've build a wonderful connection with the staff and truly trust that they care deeply for our child. As we prepared to welcome another baby in 2025, we're thrilled that they are also able to attend this center. It feels great knowing our family care and support will continue With the same amazing team. We highly recommend this center! The staff consistently go above and beyond in communication, care, and safety. As first time parents and now experienced (2nd child) we couldn't ask for a Better environment For our little ones.

Wow, I honestly can't say enough good things about Goddard Medina. We have loved sending our 2…read moredaughters (4 yrs & 2 yrs) here. As we have moved, we have attended 2 other centers that just can't compare to Goddard's curriculum and care level. First of all, Tammy (the Director) is absolutely top-notch. She is knowledgeable, open, and kind. The teachers are fantastic & so caring. Everyone knows my kids names in that school, it blows my mind. My girls absolutely love their teachers & can't wait to go to school each day. I should also point out that one of my daughters attends Special Education classes at Wayzata Early Learning Center 3 days a week & Tammy even met with our case worker to ensure they were collaborating on how to best serve her learning style. Tammy is always willing to advocate for my child's best care, even when there is extra work involved. I guess the best way to describe this place is above and beyond. They create sensory activities, hire special entertainment guests for the kiddos, host 'Parents Night Out' events...we are continuously impressed. They also use an app that allows you to see fun pictures of your kids throughout the day & get a digital summary of the days activities. Everything just feels so well run, we never 'worry' about our kids there. My guilt as a working mom has melted away. I definitely encourage you to tour Goddard if you are thinking about it. Our only regret is that we didn't find them sooner.

He has learned so much from their curriculum and also has so much fun everyday, he is all smiles when i pick him up! He is so loved there by all the teachers and they put so much effort into taking care of each kids different needs. My son is very shy and even after going there for a year and a half, he is shy in the mornings (until I've been gone for about 30 seconds then he's happy as a clam!) so the teachers have all done special things to make him comfortable until I'm gone and it has helped so much! I feel like they go way above and beyond to care for my son! Very happy with Goddard Medina!

There truly aren't enough words to express how grateful we are to have found Yellow Brick Road on…read moreHarbor Lane in Plymouth. It has been, without a doubt, the absolute best school for both of our boys, and we couldn't be happier with our experience. From the moment you walk in, you can feel the magic. The facility is always sparkling clean and thoughtfully decorated to create a warm, imaginative environment where children can learn and grow. Every detail feels intentional, and it genuinely sets the tone for a place that prioritizes both joy and development. One of the many standout features is the incredible meals that my boys won't stop talking about. The meals prepared by their chef are not only healthy but genuinely delicious-- according to my kids. This is something that gives us so much peace of mind knowing our kids are being nourished so well each day so they can focus on learning and having fun. What truly makes this school exceptional, though, is the teachers. They have such a deep understanding of children and meet each child exactly where they are at. Their approach builds confidence while thoughtfully preparing them for what comes next -- kindergarten. We especially appreciate how closely the school aligns with the Wayzata kindergarten curriculum, ensuring our boys are growing socially, emotionally, and academically in all the right ways. Miss Katie, Miss Sharvari, Miss Jen, and Mr. Ty have each been absolutely wonderful with our sons (Pre-K and Explorers). Their care, patience, and enthusiasm shine through every day. It's clear they genuinely love what they do, and that love translates directly into the classroom experience. The outdoor space is another highlight -- such an amazing area where kids can explore nature, play freely, and stay active. The teachers go above and beyond to tap into each child's unique interests, using those sparks to create excitement around learning in a way that feels natural and fun. We've been especially amazed at how quickly our son has grown in Miss Katie's class. In just four weeks, he's already learned the months of the year, days of the week, colors, and numbers in Spanish, Hindi, and ASL. From lessons on opposites to learning about animal habitats, the lifecycle of a plant and beyond - we love hearing stories about what he learns each day, and seeing his genuine happiness has been incredible to witness. After experiencing several not-so-great daycares in the past, this school has completely transformed what "daycare" means for our family. It's not just care at Yellow Brick Road, it's a nurturing, inspiring environment where our kids are truly thriving. Miss Sarah, the director, is phenomenal. She is hands-on, deeply involved with both the children and families, and communicates so well. It makes such a difference knowing there is strong, compassionate leadership that you can count on and trust. We also love how all of the teachers -- including float teachers and staff from other classrooms -- take the time to get to know our kids. Everyone has been so kind, welcoming, and genuinely invested in our family. And as a bonus, their monthly "Parents Night Out" is such a treat -- giving kids a fun evening of play, pizza, and organized activities, while parents get a little time to recharge. It truly keeps getting better and better. If you're looking for a warm, loving environment that offers the absolute best for your children, this is it. This is your sign to check this place out!
