I have had amazing experience so far with the Goddard School of Ellicott City. From the caring and positive classroom teachers to the incredible director group, everyone has been so patient with me and my son (first timers). Separation was something both my son and I had to work on, and from our initial visit to the school, I have felt that the staff was really on our side. They made the transition seem doable!

I feel informed on my child’s day to day activities as well as confident that he is getting constructive and compassionate instruction. The communication between the directors and the families about events, school closures, and safety has been incredible. Between newsletters, emails, and notifications through the school’s application, announcements are made effectively and efficiently to families. In my experience, so far, the teaching staff at the school is wonderful. They come up with creative activities, plans, books, and songs to get the children excited to learn the topics/themes they are presenting. They seem to cater to every child’s interests with physical games and activities and creative projects, as well as encouraging them to build social connections with other children with group activities and learning many independent skills.

My daughter, presently 3 1/2 years old, has been at this Goddard School since she was a baby. Given we were new parents, my husband and I wrestled over what child care setting would be best for her. We couldn’t be happier with our choice. The teachers and staff are very professional and are wonderful with the kids. One thing we noticed when we toured the place prior to choosing it was that, in every classroom, kids were being read to, and on every wall, artwork was proudly displayed amid bright signs and decor. It did not have the austere, sterile feeling of some daycares/schools–it was lively and happy. It continues to be lively and happy. There are constant learning activities, projects, art, play… and most importantly my daughter has been happy there. I remember one morning when I was dropping her off, she ran into two of her former teachers as we made our way to her classroom, each of whom brightly said hello to her. She turned to me and said, “I love school.” Nothing makes a parent happier than knowing your child is safe, happy, and loved. And we have definitely gotten that here at the Goddard School.
Okay so this is about over a month ago. Please parents make sure to check on your baby. I was there for almost an hour and The baby/infant room was the first one. I could see the baby from the little glass in a swing CRYING for the entire time I was there. The teachers in there were heartless ignored him and left him to CRYY they wakes around him and picked up toys and just didn’t care because they were too tired to. Ughh My heart was racing and I just wanted to go in pick up the baby and soothe him. I couldn’t focus on anything. I actually confronted the front office staff and said gently “hey that baby has been nonstop crying” they answered “oh yeah it’s a busy time rn” like whattt??? So you let babies cryyy like crazy because it’s a busy time for teachers to go on break. Please if you can ask for some type of camera footage for your infants who literally can’t communite. The front office admins did seem nice but please pay attention to your staff members and remind them firmly that they cannot ignore a child and leave them in a swing to cry for an hour.
