The school goes to great lengths to keep everyone safe, and they are doing a great job. I think possibly because of the reduced class sizes, or new lesson structures, our daughter is doing better than ever. She is coming home telling us all kinds of stories and making lots of connections to what she learned that day. She loves going to school everyday and usually cries when we pick her up, because she doesn't want to leave. The staff are friendly and good at their jobs, from the directors to teachers. I love getting pictures and updates throughout the day through the tadpole app. I don't know what we'd do if she couldn't go back to daycare, we are very grateful that Goddard is open and working as hard as they can to keep everyone healthy and safe in these crazy times.

Management isn't so great with giving you a day off or even a sick day, you never really work 40 hours a week and get sent home once the children drop as well as always being watched and told what to do. Once state pulls in the upper staff members start running since they have staff that shouldn't be left alone with children. I don't really have nothing nice to say except ms.Darlene

Knowing that at Kids Inn your Kids are learning while being loved... Knowing you pretty much see the same faces every day taking care of your kids... Kids Inn is not just a Day-Care for us.. They are our extended Family that Our children Love. CJ and Miranda our 2 oldest children started with Kids Inn In 2006/2007 and have since moved on now in 6th and 3rd grade. In 2010 Our middle daughter was attending her last year we welcomed our Youngest to the world. It was at this time that Kids Inn began taking Newborns and Infants. Thus - It is hope that we proudly proclaimed her to be the first to go from Newborn and finally attend Ms. Donna's Kindergarten class.. Be Prepared for Kids Inn and it's staff to become a positive influence on not only your children's lives - but through them - a positive influence on your's as well...

Checking in is a breeze, the front desk staff are always so friendly and welcoming, and there are plenty of vending machines with healthy (some more than others) and refreshing drinks and snacks. The Merrimack location has an indoor track, racquetball courts, cardio and weight equipment, a swimming pool (for lap swim, classes, swim lessons, team swim, etc), as I mentioned previously, three locations for fitness classes (aerobic and yoga area, spin and dance studio that is used by the barre class). I love Yoga, Zumba (regular and toning), Dance Fit, and kickboxing. The instructors are friendly, welcoming and informative. I always have fun even if I am not the most coordinated individual. It is a great way to cross train for my regular hiking and running routines. The fee price is more than your typical PF type place but offers so much for the cost. They have reduced fees for individuals who may be in need due to low income, disability, etc. I am a fan and look forward to going.

Worst experience! It started out as a good experience when my son started going there at 4 Mos old…read morebut when he got older we started to realize the lack of care they really provided. My son started being bullied by the upper classroom kids and it was my son that was being blamed at 3 years old. We were being threatened by the director of the school that if we didnt test our son for autism or language issues then he'd be kicked out. So he was tested and passed with flying colors. Then we werent told by his classroom teachers that anything wrong was happening until the director basically told us he isn't allowed to come back because hes disruptive (at 3 years old!). We had witnessed the kids bullying our son on the playground and our son being blamed for it when we didnt make it known to the teacher we were there to see it. Come to find out later there was favoritism happening- the kids who were bullying my son was a teachers nephew so he gets to stay and my son was told to leave. The director was threatening and rude everytime we interacted with her. She doesnt care about the students one bit. The original director was kind when we first started there but once Bree stepped in, everything went downhill. No daycare should ever be run that way. You should feel comforted that you child is loved and cared for, not bullied out. I heard from a few other parents that they witness the same treatment. How sad. Very much do not recommend this place if you care for your child at all.
