I cannot speak highly enough of the Goddard School of Chalfont. This school has been an absolute blessing for our family since our little one was just a year old. As we now prepare to transition to full time grade school (5 years later), I find myself reflecting on the incredible journey we've had with this school, its loving teachers, and its devoted leaders.
From the very beginning, it was evident that the teachers at Goddard are not only skilled professionals but also genuinely caring individuals. They have nurtured and supported our child every step of the way, fostering an environment where he could learn, grow, and thrive. Their dedication is truly remarkable.
During the challenging times of the COVID-19 pandemic, the owner, Staci, went above and beyond to ensure the safety and well-being of both the children and their families. Her communications and transparency were invaluable, providing us with peace of mind during an uncertain period. We will forever be grateful for her leadership and compassion.
I still vividly remember the first week of school for our little one. The warmth and kindness shown by the staff, especially Miss Melissa, Miss Lauren, and his 3 teachers at the time made the transition seamless, even for a hesitant (occasionally over-emotional) parent like myself. They were incredibly understanding and accommodating, offering support every step of the way. The regular updates, including photos and meal reports, became a highlight of our day and helped us feel connected to our child's experience at school.
As we prepare to say goodbye to Goddard, I can't help but feel more than just a tinge of sadness. Elizabeth Stone's quote, "Making the decision to have a child - it is momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body," rings true for me. For five years, my husband and I have entrusted Goddard with our hearts, and they exceeded all expectations in caring for it. I am eternally grateful for the love, support, and exceptional care they provided to our family.
Thank you, Goddard School of Chalfont, for being more than just a daycare. You have been a second home for our child, a source of comfort and joy, and a cornerstone of his early years. We will cherish the memories, friendships, and lessons learned here forever.

Our experience over the past 4 years with The Goddard School in Chalfont, PA has been nothing short of remarkable. Staci, Melissa, and Lauren along with their talented teachers have been more than just a child care center for us; it has become a second family. The warmth, care, and support they provide are unparalleled. Leadership and commitment to excellence shine through in every aspect of the program.Our eldest is now in elementary school, and we are immensely grateful for the strong foundation he received at Goddard -He was more than prepared and is excelling in all subjects. The teachers and staff at The Goddard School have played a pivotal role in our children's development. Their dedication, patience, and expertise have created a safe and stimulating environment that encourages growth and exploration. It's evident that the staff genuinely care about each child's well-being and development, which has provided us with tremendous peace of mind.Amid the challenges of the COVID-19 shutdown, The Goddard School continued to show their unwavering support. When our son's birthday was right around the corner, and traditional celebrations were impossible, the Goddard teachers stepped up to the plate. They joined in our "drive-by Birthday Parade," bringing balloons, signs, and their smiles to our doorstep. This act of kindness and support during a difficult time exemplified the exceptional bond within The Goddard School community. We've had the pleasure of forming lasting friendships with other parents and families, and have enjoyed the variety of events and activities hosted for the Goddard families!

My son has been going to the Goddard School in Chalfont since he was 5 months old. From day one I when I met with the management team & a few teachers I knew my child would be in great hands. Over the years any concerns that I had, I felt comfortable calling or even stopping in the Director's office. Both Melissa (Director) and Lauren (Assistant Director) have always made time for any questions that I have had. Each year my son has had friendly, kind and most of all loving teachers. Knowing that the directors and staff all have the children's well being and safety in mind as their top priority makes me (a first time mom) feel more than comfortable and happy dropping my son off every day. We have had been treated like family since our first day several years ago.

Goddard school in Chalfont is amazing! The staff is extremely friendly and professional. My son looks forward to going there! Also, for the parents whose kids are new to daycare/school, you need not worry, for your kids will be safe and secure there. Kids who may be apprehensive at first will quickly adjust, as the staff will lovingly reassure them every day. It’s a relief to me as a mother to know that when I drop him off every morning-he will be well taken care of.Double thumbs up for all of staffs! We love you guys!!

At the time of writing I have been using the Chalfont Goddard for 6 year with 2 children. I have always thought my children were safe, taken care for, and actually learning a lot. The safety factor is especially important to me. Also, I have a weird rotating schedule and they always work with me to accomodate my children. At this point I would never even think of taking my children somewhere else.

Both of our boys have attended this school. The teachers are so caring. It makes me so happy when my youngest goes running to his classroom in the morning and hugs his teachers. They have helped my boys learn and experience so many new things. We are truly grateful to have found this school 4 years ago.

My son's language skills, physical development and social interaction skills have noticeably improved since our first day.There are so many activities scheduled each week to get the children involved with different experiences.The teacher's also send photos and videos throughout the day which allow my husband and I to know how the day is going and it gives us the opportunity to have discussions about the school day with our son.We are very satisfied here, the staff is amazing! You can truly tell each person cares!

I don’t think I can thank the staff and the teachers of Goddard enough for making it a safe and comfortable place for my son. His amazing teachers Kara, Liz and Abby made the learning process so much fun with a nurturing atmosphere.Also the staff Mellisa and Stacy have always been so flexible and extended their support just like family.

I just wanted to pop on here to tell you how fabulous and amazing the Chalfont Goddard School is.They have truly taken such good care of my little brother and have taught him so much in such a short period of time!I do not know if they truly understand the difference they have made on him socially, emotionally, and academically. My brother started at the Chalfont Goddard School back in August and is in the Chimp room. He has progressed immensely since he started at the Chalfont Goddard School.Being an educator myself, I am always looking for somewhere that will help my loved ones grow and learn and they have done just that for my little brother. Engaging him in reading and science, math, and physical activity! Always keeping his little mind thinking! My little brothers social and emotional skills have grown tremendously since he has started at the Chalfont Goddard School.Thank you so much for taking my little brother and loving him, valuing him, and teaching him. He gets so excited to go to school every single day!Love you guys!
