We recently moved to the Charlotte area and enrolled our son in the school. We are very happy with this transition and our son is becoming more curious, he is socializing and he is even trying new foods.I believe his teacher Megan and Meredith are extremely nice and provide him support and kindness. Mikaela and Virginia are great and they always help us with any question we may have.I highly recommend this school.

The Goddard School of Matthews has been such an enriching environment for our three children. The administration and faculty are connected, responsive, and have sincerely taken an interest in understanding each of our children’s individual needs. We love the sense of community we’ve found at Goddard and highly recommend the daycare.

As a first time mother, finding a school you feel comfortable sending your baby too is quite difficult! On top of that, all Charlotte daycares have a waitlist a year or more long and there seems to be little visibility into where you are in that line. Out of all the waitlists we were on, Mikaela at Goddard was the most organized and responsive. She made sure we understood timing and were able to plan accordingly. Goddard was my top choice for daycares, but we needed to send my son to our third choice daycare until a spot opened up at Goddard.When we compare the two daycares, the Goddard curriculum is much more extensive. They do activities every day no matter the age so it feels like they’re focused on development. The management team is kind and welcoming and knows the name of every kid (which to me is so impressive). The teachers are always calm, smiling and engaging with the babies. I’m an anxious new mother and the teachers are always responsive to my messages and take the time to speak with me about my son’s schedule, food, etc. They also have done great with our baby led weaning food plan. We’ve really enjoyed our experience at Goddard and are excited to see our little boy develop with them over the next few years.

Great learning environment for our little one. We were initially concerned about how our little one would adjust to being in a class setting after being home full time since birth, however, the staff and teachers were instrumental in addressing any of my concerns and ensuring a safe and healthy learning environment for my LO. She has adapted well and enjoys going to school daily to engage with her peers and teachers. I appreciate the school’s transparency & candor, and consistent communication with the parents. I also appreciate their efforts for parent involvement & engagement.

Goddard was our little one’s 1st daycare/school experience and the transition wasn’t easy the 1st couple of weeks, however the teachers & staff were very influential in easing my anxiety and comforting my LO during the transition process. She has learned so much within her time here & enjoys her learning environment. Goddard has a great learning curriculum and aims to challenge and support healthy learning & growth in their students.

Our family thrives at Goddard School of Matthews. Our eldest started at 1.5 years in the middle of the pandemic and blossomed into curiosity and joy. Our youngest started at six months and developed socially in ways we wouldn't have expected elsewhere. The staff are amazing and it's great to see the organization and owners develop their people in their current and new roles and responsibilities to better care for our children and serve families.

Even though Goddard is a “chain”, this place truly feels like a mom n pop shop. The owners are present and involved in the day to day operations, administration is attentive, and the teachers have always been open and we genuinely feel like they care about our kids. It’s been night and day compared to our past daycare experiences.

Excellent staff members and teachers . Near and clean environment . Secure place . Have seen my daughters enjoy going to this school since the past 4 years . It provides a good foundation for early education. Lots of fun events and activities are organized for both parents and kids. All learning and growth aspects for children are taken care of. Have never had any problems so far .

We have been apart of the Goddard Matthews family since fall of 2020. As a parent, I was constantly impressed with the education and experiences my young children were receiving, the communication from teachers and administrators, and the overall atmosphere of the school. In fact, I was so impressed that I became a teacher at the school after I stepped down from my teaching job at a CMS school.

Have loved every minute of our experience with Goddard Matthews. The owners and leadership staff are easily accessible and as friendly and welcoming as they come. The teachers and assistants are fantastic and show much love and warmth to the kids. 10/10

I love this place. One good thing is that I can bring my homemade food and her bottles( which some places i couldn't). And the most important fact is my 15 months old has been here for only 2 months and she already point to her backpack asking to come to the school. She loves being there and she loves all the teachers, I can tell she has learned a lot from them. Thank you so much for taking a wonderful care of my daughter

We’ve had three children attend this school starting back in 2018 to present and we have been so happy. There was a change in management in 2019 and the new owners have been nothing short of amazing. I can’t speak highly enough for this school and staff. We’ll continue to be at this school for the next 4 years.

My daughter has learned, socialized and grown so much! Thanks to all the teachers! Ms. T, Ms. Mikaela, Ms. Kabrina. Ms. Alissa, Ms. Carolina and Ms. Cameron just to name a few. Daughter was nervous as first but now loves to go greet everyone in the morning. Supportive and understanding staff! Definitely recommend!
