Schools in Chantilly, VA

“We have been at Goddard since my daughter was nine months old; she is almost three. We will also enroll my son when he turns nine months old. The main reason we love Goddard is their excellent communication. During our medical situation, we left Goddard for a few months to attend a Montessori school with slightly better pricing for all-day care. We encountered many issues with communication and returned to Goddard. Other things we like include:

1. The ability to walk our child to their classroom
2. Trust that our food preferences are followed
3. Variety in student activities throughout the day
4. Outdoor play structures have shade
5. Outdoor areas are ample, and the majority is grass
6. Small teacher-student ratios
7. Opportunity to bond with the teachers
8. Receive honest feedback from the teacher at the end of the day (and during parent-teacher conferences)
9. Quick action and communication when there are issues/accidents
10. Confidence in the front office and staff as a whole

We highly recommend this school to families looking for quality care, peace of mind, and a great head start on your child's education.”

“Both of our children (18 months and nearly 5) attend the Goddard School of Chantilly. The teachers are wonderful to our children and the development of both our children has exponentially expanded since they started attending one year ago. We have decided to have our son complete kindergarten at the Goddard School vs. Fairfax County Public Schools and I think that will pay dividends for us in the future. While the tuition is expensive, family members pay less (albeit, not that much less) for other schools in the area and the quality is significantly different in the worst way possible. 5 stars for the Goddard School!”

“My son has started here in December after being in another Kindercare for 2 years (we moved). The staff has been very accommodating and truly cares about all children. Thank you so much for the hard work you do to help us nurture them. I feel at ease that we can just enjoy each other at home because of how much learning he does at school.”

“We absolutely love Miss Monica for our son in Kindergarten. We were both happy for her promotion to move on to Head of School at the South Riding campus in January and also sad to lose her. She worked so closely with us and had amazing insight about our son. However, after speaking with Miss Ananya, we were very pleased with her report on him and the way that she and Ms. Flor are guiding him as a person and in academics. We appreciate all that the teachers at Guidepost do and see a maturity in our son. We can tell that he is learning and working with the work that comes home. He writes “mom and dad” on all his papers. He is proud of his work. He has made many friends and all the staff know him by name at Guidepost Chantilly. We are planning on keeping him at Guidepost for first grade.”

“From the moment you step inside the school, you're greeted with an atmosphere of cleanliness, warmth, and genuine care. The school is always clean and welcoming, creating a comfortable environment for both children and parents. The office staff at Primrose are very prompt, friendly, and genuinely caring. They are always open for a conversation and incredibly accommodating to the needs of both parents and children. Their warm smiles and willingness to assist make every interaction a positive experience.
The teachers at Primrose are nothing short of amazing. They welcome each child with open arms and are highly communicative with parents. They pay close attention to every child's needs and keep parents informed about every aspect of their child's day. This level of care and communication nurtures a strong sense of trust and partnership between the school and families. We have witnessed so many remarkable positive changes in our son, he has grown confident socially and emotionally and enjoys his time in school.
The curriculum at Primrose is outstanding. There are countless fun activities planned throughout the year for all occasions and festivals. These activities not only provide children with enjoyable experiences but also offer valuable opportunities to learn about and embrace varied cultures and traditions. It's truly a holistic approach to education that sets Primrose apart. Not to mention, the food provided is of good quality, diverse, and nutritious, and if a child does not like something, teachers always offer other options to kids rather than letting them continue with half-full tummies.
I am incredibly grateful for the positive impact this school has had on my child and our family. I recommend Primrose to any parent seeking a loving and enriching environment for their child.”

“The success of a business hinges on how well the staff interact and connect with customers. Ms. Caitlyn actually recalled my initial inquiry from a few weeks ago, so when I came in with my granddaughter, she reminded me of my own interests!

We made a same day visit and my 4 year old granddaughter was holding tightly to my finger. The center was bright, clean and well laid out. When we got there, the other 4 year olds were outside. When she saw them, my granddaughter lit up and wanted to join them right away.

When they came in, a couple of the kids introduced themselves. Kids can be so amazing and welcoming! And my granddaughter decided right then that she'd be returning the next day.

We are so grateful for the warm reception and the company's flexibility. Thank you so much!”

“My daughter attends the preschool here and really enjoys it! The principal and teachers are really sweet, friendly, and kind. I feel that my daughter is being challenged appropriately while still having fun. The students play educational games, they do cute and creative arts and crafts and they incorporate music and movement. My little girl loves coming to school and is happy at MCS :)”

“The teachers are caring and consistent. The management sends regular communications to keep the parents informed. This is a great place for little gymnasts! Ms.Val is wonderful with the kids!”

“I genuinely enjoy working there since it has honestly helped with my depression at some state. It actually makes me smile coming into work since I get to be a helpful asset to the team rather then standing by. Even when I come into classes to help out, you can honestly see kids being friends with one another in a heart beat. Making sure no one is left behind.”
