Infant

     Our nursery is designed to create a warm and secure environment for your infant. From the peaceful sleeping alcove to the big rocking chairs where babies are held and fed, your child is in a very special place at Goddard.
     Our teachers spend lots of time cuddling and talking to your baby to instill trust and provide a healthy early learning environment for movement, exploration and communication.

Toddler

     Through The Goddard School® FLEX™ Learning Program, energetic teachers plan daily activities in a bright and cheery childcare environment to encourage your toddler's eager investigation of the world. Within the consistent structure toddlers crave, your child will enjoy a daily balance of quiet activities, spirited music and movement and plenty of outdoor climbing, running and jumping.

Preschool

     Let your child thrive in our accredited curriculum. Learning centers for math, science, dramatic play, music, creative art and computers provide opportunities to balance both shared and independent learning experiences. Our teachers incorporate theme-related materials, individual attention and child-engagement.

School-Age

     Founded on the belief that learning opportunities happen everywhere and at anytime, many Goddard School locations provide a high-quality school-age program during before- and after-school hours, and possibly elementary school holidays and early dismissal days.

Summer

     Most summer programs for children offer plenty of play. But how many prepare your child for school readiness while creating joyful, lasting summer memories? The Goddard School® goes far beyond just summer camp fun. Our summer program combines songs, stories, exploration, physical activities and learning adventures in a safe, nurturing environment. Science and Nature, Arts and Crafts, Manners, Computers and Technology, Literature and Language, Music and Movement, Sports and Games, Cooking and Drama are brought to life.
