I don't understand why this school has low ratings. I think it is due to only one or two bad reviews, so I thought I would add a positive review. My daughter and I love this school!!! She has been to two other day care facilities back when we lived in IL. She cried every time I dropped her off at those and they were super high-end with excellent reviews. Now that she is at Goddard, she is super excited to get ready and go to school in the morning. Everyone, and I mean everyone, who works there is always smiling and helpful. They all know my daughter's name and greet her with smiles and excitement every time. They also have a shaded play yard which is hard to find in OK--I don't have to worry about her getting sunburned or the excessive use of sunscreen. I love this place. It is small and they allow flexible schedules. My daughter goes four days a week and we only pay for four days per week. Love it, Love it! read more

My son went here since he was 1 yrs old! We just pulled him out over a month ago. Things you should consider, ask, and really look around before paying your good hard earned money at this higher rate any where. Find out your self and you will know why! 1) How long has this place been in business? 2) Has this place had the same owner or owners since it's been open? 3) Are the owners or owner involved? 4) How long has each teacher/Director been working here? Will my kid have a different teacher daily or often? 2) What is the ratio teach to child suppose to be? Then ask what is it now? 3) For Younger kids is diapers and wipes included in price? 4) Does my kid get breakfast & Lunch? How many snacks do they get in the day? 5) Do I get updated, when my child been checked in and out, after my child has ate and what they ate, after my child got changed, when they go down for nap and when they get up from nap. Or do I have to wait till end of day for a summary report? 6) Can I see the app you use? 7) How often is the place cleaned? Look around does it look clean or smell? 8) Also always talk & get to know the teachers! For the 1st 2 weeks randomly stop in, the middle of the day. read more

My daughter started in the 1 year class room and now is in the 4 year old classroom. I absolutely love the staff! Amanda, Nicole and Shelby are delightful and extremely helpful to work with and always a joy! My daughter loves going to school and on the rare day she isn't feeling it her teacher always helps convince her to come in the class and play with something. Her vocabulary and skills have really blossomed and she recently told us all about the difference between a hexagon, parallelogram and a rhombus. I'm very impressed and will be very sad to leave for Pre K. read more

I'm surprised to read some of the negative reviews but most of them are older. We've had our 2 kids here the last year and half and we really couldn't ask for a better daycare. read more

I never wrote any negative review in my life, even for bad products, I only write my review of any positive feeling I have toward anything, but when it comes to my baby and anyone else kids, I feel it's crucial to expose what my baby have been through in this daycare. I'm new to Oklahoma, everything else in this state is so great, people are so friendly and helpful, until we decided to take our baby there, totally unprofessional, unorganized, everyday they have a new teacher, since no1 can be there for long. My kid is a very happy baby, the smile never left her face, but during the time she was there, I was like piking up a ZOMBIE. She doesn't smile or interact, she started to cry the whole night. When I decided to take my baby out from the daycare, the staff didn't care to even ask why, they didn't care less. If you really care about your kids, find another daycare. read more

They don't even teach Spanish, my kid came home still speaking English. My kid even came home with some noticeable marks with no explanation from the school. How disappointing. read more

Our boys started here 2 years ago. We went through a stretch of high turnover rate for both classes, but the teachers have been consistent and amazing for the last year. read more

This school is awesome! We have a two year old son and he loves going to school every day! Each day when he comes home he has learned something new. The teachers are sweet and you can tell they love their job. The director is great and easy to work with. We moved here from Texas and I was worried that our son would have a tough time adjusting but it has been a smooth transition! I highly recommend this school! read more

I am surprised to read some of the negative reviews about this school. I have had 2 daughters here at different stages in their lives. It is harder as a new mother putting an infant in care vs. a toddler who is more capable of taking care of things like runny noses and going to the bathroom. We have had a good experience with both children, one in 2012 at the age of 1, and one who is currently enrolled as a 4 year old. Any concerns or questions that we have brought up to Shelby or Ashley have been addressed quickly. The teachers are all educated and care about the kids. We get daily updates, some times more than once a day sharing information and a photo of what the kiddos are doing. This is new for us from the 2012 enrollment as they were not as digital then, we received a written note each day of the activities. We also get an end of day report that generates when we pick our daughter up, which is helpful. They have many activities on the calendar each month and we are glad to be a part of this school. read more

We recently had our 2 yr old son enrolled in the class taught by Amanda, for one month. When we went in for our tour we worked with Shelby, who is not the director. She is young and very positive but I feel she miss led us with what they actually offer. We were told that we would get a completed daily report and 2 pictures a day (never once happened), the kids would be fed healthy options like frozen fruit over canned fruit (they ate a lot of mandarin oranges), vegetables, etc. On the menu, there was a lot of French toast, pasta dishes, etc. Not very healthy options. We were assured that the staff supervising our son all had 4-year degrees in a field that was child education related, also not true. We even went to look at a classroom that turned out not being the one my son ended up in. All of that was minor and I was okay looking past some of it. However, the overall supervision was poor. In the one month my son was there 2 times we picked him up he still had poop on him, 3 times his pants were wet from peeing through his diaper, 1 time his shirt sleeves were soaking wet all the way up the sleeves, 2 times he was bitten, and one of those times the school was unaware it had happened. When we asked the teaching assistants about the peed pants, they didn't realize he has TWO extra outfits in his cubby. When we asked about the sleeves the teaching assistants said they didn't know how his sleeve got wet. I called the director Ashley after the first couple of diaper issues and she said she had not heard of that out of Amanda's classroom but would talk to her. Never heard back about it. Today When I called to make them aware of the second bite Ashley, the director, didn't seem very alarmed by it. She made a lot of excuses as to why it could have happened. She said that the girls that were subbing for Amanda, as well as some of the other teachers, were not "trained up as much as she wanted them to be." I expressed to her that they shouldn't be alone with kids if they aren't trained properly. Ashley said she had just had a staff meeting the night before with the teachers and she had already addressed some of these issues with the staff. She said she would speak to the teacher and call me back about not being aware of the second bite. (It broke the skin...) That was at 8:30. At 11:30 I called and Shelby said she was at lunch, I left a message. At 3:30 I called (Ashley leaves at 4) and had to leave a message on the machine. My husband finally went up there and told them that because of the lack of supervision, we felt unsafe taking our child there and wouldn't be back. They never once apologized for the behavior. Poor supervision, poor customer service. I would look elsewhere! read more

We have had both of our children at this location since they were about 10 months old through preschool age. We have overall been very satisfied with this day care. We feel that they are safe and our kids have loved it there. There have been a few brief time periods over the last 4 years where staff turnover has been a problem but it eventually evened out and has been better. The daily reports are helpful that we receive and we love to see the pictures each day of what our child is up to. We have not had too much to complain about with this place. read more

prior to Goddard , I was at a loss. To the point I was going to have to quit my job if Goddard did not work out ( my last resort). My son is the happiest kid ever but for some reason in a day care/home day care environment he had the biggest and most horrible melt downs. I almost thought he had sensory issues. After discussing my issues with Shelby she was so welcoming and helpful and convincing that we were in this together and would get my 2 year old comfortable and back to having enjoyable days. The first two weeks Shelby would text me several times a day to calm my nerves and ease my worries. She was absolutely amazing. Not once has he had the major melt downs like he was at the other day cares. He never cries at drop-offs and he truly loves going to school. I love the communication I receive. I never feel like the over bearing crazy mom...even though I'm sure I seem like it to them at time:) One of the biggest things I love is that he gets the snuggles he needs on his bad days or mornings. It truly warms my heart to see the teachers reach out and hold and love on my boy when I cant. :) Thank you Goddard for being so good to my boy! read more

We took our 7- month old daughter to this place and although we paid for a whole month, we could not take her there for more than 3 days. And when we asked for a refund, they did not give us any. The front disk were unprofessional and rude, and were ignoring our calls and voice mails. The place is a mess. They are clearly understaffed. All the babies are crying. Every time we go we find a different teacher so we have to explain to her everything about our daughter's feeding, sleeping, etc. again. Our daughter normally sleeps for 3 to 4 hours during the day but when she started the daycare she could not sleep more than hour and half because the place was not quiet at all. Although when we first visited them they told us that they have noise machine and that the place is really quiet during the nap time but this was not the case. We only give her formula and they gave her someone else's ??BREAST MILK??on the 2nd and 3rd day. She normally takes 6 ounces of formula but there she did not take more than 2-3 ounces and they did not even care about making her take more. When we came to pick her up we found her sitting on the table chair facing the wall with no toys or anyone interacting with her. After her last day we notice a big scratch on the back of her neck. Anyone who sees our daughter says she is such a happy baby but on her 3rd day she was no longer a happy baby. read more
