I love that they use the Procare app to let me know how my daughter is doing during the day. They will send me photos and updates on meals and potty breaks everyday.

I would not recommend this Sun Prairie Daycare mostly because their management is horrible but they…read moreare also very expensive. I sent two kids here for the past two years, and communication about billing, scheduling, and deadlines is very poor with the management. They are lucky enough to have some nice staff watching the children at times but they can't keep them around. My wife became friends with one of my sons' caretakers and she told us how poorly the management treated the staff throughout the COVID shut downs: not paying the staff encouraging them not to file for unemployment, then collecting the PPP from the government and not paying their staff. All the while making the parents pay like nothing changed! They are very expensive, do not accommodate any slight schedule change and clearly don't care about their customers- the families. We put in our 30 days notice to leave after two years and requested an extension with a few days left and management gave us a flat out no. Terribly disingenuous people to work with. As far as the facilities, the place always stinks and my son in diapers often was sent home with a poop diaper with no indication of how long it was there other than a red butt. Find your kids somewhere better than this.

Not a good idea. Check the violations they have had on childcarefinder.wisconsin.gov. Over-priced…read morefor what you get.

My two year old opened a book of shapes the other day and read it to me front to back (even…read moreoctagon!). We did not realize how many shapes he knew, and this is a direct testament to how amazing the teachers are at Goddard. The bar was pretty low for us when we started; we were hoping to find a new daycare that would minimally change a diaper more than twice a day. And we have gotten so much more!! I saw one teacher cry tears of joy because her student was graduating to the next level; that's how much she cared about her kids. The first time my son pooped on the potty, every single teacher at pickup (and the director!!) told me how they celebrated with him! I'm so grateful for the amazing curriculum and the caring staff. This is the village we didn't know we needed, and I'm grateful for everything they provide.

Her teacher is the sweetest and always greets you with a smile. I have worked at this school since December of 2021 and they have been incredible to me as an employer. Not only did they allow me the medical leave I needed at short notice, but they accepted me back after 2 months with open arms. They are some of the kindest and most understanding people I've ever met and I love working here! We're like a family. Not only do they treat their staff well but we have some of the best staff and teachers for the children. We love all of our kids and they love us!

We called corporate office and they said that there were current openings. My girlfriend and I both…read moreleft work early to come and do a tour. When we got there we were told there were absolutely no openings till summer. I quote "Corporate does that all the time to just get you to come in." The front desk lady left my girlfriend's voicemail and never mentioned that there was a wait list for the first openings in summer. The front desk lately was very rude and became agitated that we were shocked there were no openings. Overall very unprofessional and horrible customer service experience.

My daughter has been in this daycare for almost 7 months now. She's in the toddler classroom. We…read moreabsolutely love her teachers. The communication between the teachers and parents is great. I especially like how her teachers always take my concern or advice very seriously. They always follow through. They are also curious about how we handle certain situations at home so that we can keep everything on the same page between school and home. I think that's very important when it comes to learning and discipline for kids at this age. One thing we particularly enjoy is that our daughter likes to show off what she learns from school. Everyday she surprises us with new words, new dance moves, new songs (even though she could only sing a small part of the song but it was enough for us to guess what song she learned in school). And she has become a child with great manner even when she is upset, she would still say "no please". Another thing I noticed is that her teachers enjoy buying cool books and toys from resale stores. They brought in new books/toys so frequently to help the children learn something new all the time. I thought that was part of their job responsibilities but turned out it was voluntary and they enjoy doing so. Kudos to her lead teachers Ms. Melissa and Ms. Kris, and all the other teachers who fill in to help here and there.

Inappropriate daycare center the way me and my children were treated. They wanted services for my…read moreyoungest daughter there who is waiting on a second opinion requested by services this daycare recommended and pushed for a evaluation. The evaluation they asked for refused to provide services. After that they have been inappropriate. They won't give you incident reports or you have to push for them. One time my child needed X-rays from a possible finger that could have been fractured, this happened right during different long emails from Elina complaining about my 2 year old. and the other two were bodily fluids involved, I never got written incident reports and unknown if the other parents with children in the room received them. As we left today their worker worked, Elina, parked my vehicle with my children in and made us wait for her to get done then smiled at us knowing my autistic child just had to leave her daycare she is established with as her everyday routine and her worker that was there and me as a single mother might lose her job today. She drove very close to my car with my children in it. I take off work for this childcare center even if my child needs a bandaid put on at their request but no incident report give. They said if they call or put it in the app that is all they are required to do. Also if they have a hard day I pick them up leaving my employment. Because I was in a car accident that was a surprise financial burden and another thing that was being fixed well known by the owner they added more pressure by kicking my children out permanently and unexpected this morning. They use a excuse of payments but know very well they were getting paid and their transactions I was looking through because according to their statements I over paid them last month and wanted to clarify on this. They also said if a parent is late they can't return until the funds are paid, wrong they terminated my children today completely even though I was paying my co payment today. I dropped my children off with no knowledge of them not being able to be there today, prior evening was given a amount to pay and was emailed after I left and almost to work to turn around and get my children. The ladies in the office couldn't give me the incident reports I asked for again today. They got paid from the state already this month. They refuse to report many things unless forced by the state laws of reporting. Wisconsin Shares Child Care Subsidy Program paid them this month and my children didn't receive that amount of time of care. I wouldn't trust this childcare center and what happens behind closed doors. Also you pay a tuition fee over 200 a month. They had me bring lunches, snacks, and breakfast for my children and wouldn't even feed it to them half of the time. Would sit out in room temperature most of the time wasting our grocery money.
