I hate to leave this review, because in 2021 when our daughter first attended we were extremely happy. The school underwent massive turnover from that time through to 2024. While we encountered a few absolutely amazing staff members during our time attending nearly all of them left. Upper management at this school is terrifying. You cannot speak freely about your experience as they will un-enroll your child if you do. One of my daughters teachers had a felony on her record for animal abuse that led to death and was at this school teaching young children. The school saw this as no issue and found the parents to be awful for mentioning it to upper management. How dare we they stated. Even though these are OUR children attending and we are paying top dollar for our children to have safety at school. No conversations or explanations allowed. Instead we had to be scared of the backlash from the school for questioning anything - even something we had every right to wonder about. If you are considering this school for your child I would sadly think again and look elsewhere. My daughter went from happy and skipping into school every day to screaming and crying at drop off towards the end there. Instead of the school assisting me and wondering why this was now happening out of the blue they would let me struggle as she was tearing my clothes off as I left crying for my drive to work. Things that make you go - wow. This is wrong.

A fantastic environment for my little one to grow and learn. She loves going every day!

We have been a member of The Goddard Family for 7 years. Over the years, the school has been consistent in providing a safe nurturing learning environment for our children. My daughter is a Goddard Graduate and is excelling in elementary school. My son is currently enrolled. At The Goddard School, the children are properly cared for. The school offers a structured curriculum with opportunities for enrichment. The staff is friendly and communicate well with parents. There are also opportunities for parents to be involved with their child's learning experience. Consider The Goddard School for your child.

I don't know why it's taken me so long to write this review, I drive by this facility nearly everyday. My son who is in high school now attended this center and it feels like almost no time has passed. When we first moved to Wellington, it was an adjustment for him. Many of the local places were not well run, or patient. When we found Goddard and took a chance on them for his VPK, it was a great match and they took extremely good care of our child. Time changes things, but I urge you to check this place out for yourself and give your child a chance.

My wife and I called regarding enrollment, scheduling a tour, etc. Sue on the phone was extremely rude and refused to offer any information except saying "we're full" and hung up. We are now in our second year with Montessori and we love it.

Unfortunately, it’s the worst school for even toddler 3 and up that I had to deal with! I don’t know how people find this school good! My 3 year old son fell onto their playground and no one informed us. When I took him out from the school I noticed bruises on his nose and forehead and so the next morning when my husband went to drop off our son and he asked the teacher why they didn’t reported the incident, they said it must have happened when he was with your wife after she picked him from the school and before going home! I was super surprised and the next day when I ask about the scene they told your 3 year old son told us this! Another issue he was there in the school for 2 weeks and he didn’t eat or drink nothing! And the teacher called and complained that they won’t keep him if he’s starving. So in the morning I requested the teacher during drop off that please open the milk small packet what I put into the lunchbox. The front office lady shouted he doesn’t drink it. I replied he cannot open it that’s why he is not drinking, then the front lady looked at the class teacher and said open the milk packet and throw it on the trash! I had the urge to…. But I controlled myself! And be aware you will never see the class teacher. Even if you wait to meet with the class teacher until 8:30 during drop offs they don’t come yet and also the class teacher leaves the school at 3pm before you go in the afternoon to pick up your child!!! Long story short the teachers are very rude, they tie the children in carts for hours just to make them sit there. Another incident my son was crying the whole time for every single day! When I was dropping him off the teachers set blocks in some trays and dinosaurs in some trays to play . My son loves dinosaurs, he ran to one of the dinosaur tray to pick, but just to let him feel bad the lady took away the dinosaurs and gave him a block tray! I mean forget about becoming a teacher, what kind of person does that! Another incident I called the front desk and requested to talk with the teacher because that’s the only way you can communicate with the actual class teacher during the break time you call and ask for the teacher! I asked her did he eat anything? Was he crying? This that! And after talking to me for like 20 minutes at around 1pm she told me “I mean, right now, your son isn’t napping , he’s crying!” I asked is he crying since morning or he started crying now. She straight way answered me “since you left in the morning he’s continuously crying!” My son had sleeping disorders after going to that school! He wake up screaming at night and crying! My happy and over active child became scared frightened and quiet after going to that place ! I don’t know what they did there but he got super scared! The teacher pinched him i saw bruises into his arm. My son acted and showed me and his dad how the teacher forced him on his shoulder and chest to keep him slept on the floor. I changed his school he cried for first 3 days in the morning for 5 minutes. Now and forever he’s a happy child! He is eating well, taking straight 2 hours nap. Playing! Having fun in the other school he goes now.

The Goddard School Wellington is simply a wonderful Daycare, it has all the tools for your son or daughter to develop their learning in a didactic and fun way. My son started in August of this year and as parents we are truly amazed at his progress in learning. I recommend it one hundred percent. The administrative staff and teachers are very nice, they really love their work. We are very happy that our son is part of The Goddard School Wellington family

Our daughter has been attending The Goddard School since she was 4 month old. She is now 16 months and it has been a wonderful experience for us and her. Very interactive, caring, clean and the teachers and staff are great. We are very grateful that she is attending this wonderful school.
