I regret to say that our experience with Anju, the owner of this preschool, left much to be desired. Her egotistical demeanor has led us to opt out of enrolling our daughter and discouraging others from considering this establishment. Despite a friend’s recommendation, our tour appointment with Anju started off on the wrong foot. Upon arrival, we were kept waiting outside as she attended to a phone call, disregarding our presence. During the tour, her behavior was concerning. She made insensitive remarks about family planning and seemed more interested in business than in the well-being of the children. Her exact statements were “as parents we
Are supposed to teach kids to share, so we have two kids then we learn to share our parents.. you guys shouldn’t just have one kid”. She was plainly intrusive and rude.
Additionally as we took the tour, she had an air of ego constantly. Her dismissive attitude towards our inquiries and her insistence on parental involvement as an excuse for lackluster resources was disheartening. Compared to other preschools in the area, her arrogance stands out, raising doubts about the safety and care provided to the children under her management.

My child has had a very good experience with the preschool program at the Goddard School at San Ramon. She joined the school over a year and half ago and has learned tremendously. Ms. Anju and Ms. Ingrid have been very approachable, helpful and responsive. Our experiences with the teachers who have taught my child in one or the other way (such as Spanish class, Art class, PE, other supportive teachers, to name few) have been pleasant.
Ms. Viji the class teacher for one of the preschool classrooms has been an exceptional preschool teacher and has helped my child grow under her guidance. She is very passionate and patient with the little kids ensuring they have a nurturing environment to grow. She finds creative ways to engage the children, making STEM based learning fun and effective, as well as setting a solid foundation for kindergarten preparedness. She is very professional, understanding and respectful while handling kids.
Thanks to the Goddard School at San Ramon for executing a very good curriculum and making a significant difference in the lives of its students!
