Reviews of The Goddard School of Nashua (Kindergarten)

S Baldini

My son went to The Goddard School as an infant through Pre-Kindergarten and had a wonderful experience. We felt the high level of supervision and the extensive communication with daily reports was exactly what we needed. The teachers, director, and owner were fabulous. Everyone cares about the children and makes an incredible effort creating a fun environment and stimulating learning activities. I always felt good about dropping my son off where he was safe and he was learning. A mom couldn't ask for more.

Great school. Our daughter is 16 months. Yesterday they explored watermelon. They ate watermelon, jumped from watermelon to watermelon, painted with watermelon colored cool whip, and experimented with different chunks of watermelon sinking or floating. I love the teachers and we really enjoy all the photos of our daughter that we get through the app they use.

I've had two children at Goddard since they were infants. The staff are excellent and caring, and their curriculum is thorough and very clearly defined. We get daily reports, as well as photos occasionally throughout the day. The facility itself is also immaculately clean and well-maintained.

I can't say enough good things about Goddard! Our 2 children attended this school and our family truly enjoyed being a part of the Goddard family. They (office staff and teachers...Tony, Samantha, Heidi, Jamie, Cristina, Cassie, & Donna to name a few) were absolutely wonderful in welcoming our children into their school and making them feel so comfortable and loved. My husband and I are so grateful that we found Goddard and that our 2 yr-old son's first experience of school/day care was such a pleasant one. He learned so much, so fast! Our 4 yr-old daughter had gone to another school/day care prior to Goddard that we were not too happy with, so we transferred her and it was the best decision. She absolutely flourished at Goddard, academically & socially! We also loved the daily reports and daily pics we would get of the kids doing different activities. We could tell that our kids loved being there. They even formed great bonds with their teachers...in particular Ms. Cristina, Ms. Cassie, & Ms. Donna. They genuinely loved our kids and our kids genuinely loved them! I only wish we had found this school sooner, so we could have started our daughter there from the very beginning! I highly recommend this school for anyone who wants their child to develop their social skills, receive a great education & care, and have fun while doing it!

I cannot say enough great things about the Goddard School. A few months ago I was looking for part-time childcare for my 18 m/o son. I had been home with him since birth so I was anxious to find a great place. I visit one daycare but couldn't bear the thought of leaving him in a crowded, dirty room. Then I visited the Goddard School. The rooms are spacious and clean, and the decorations and artwork are always changing. The teachers are welcoming and love on my son and all the kids. It only took him about 4-5 weeks to get completely adjusted without crying at drop-off. He can say all his teachers' names and loves his time at "schooolll." We love getting pictures and updates about his day via the Tadpoles app. This makes it easy to practice what he has learned in school at home. My son is learning new words every day and it is so exciting to see him grow. We are so thankful for the Goddard School, all the great teachers and staff. Thank you so much for caring for our son!

My Isa has been at Goddard School for several years. The relationships we have developed with staff is more like family. My daughter was having sensory issues and teachers and director work every day to help her through her tough moments. They are extremely kind and loving and most of all FUN!!! They allow children to be children and let teach them through amazing curriculum of learning with hands on techniques. I could go on with more words but visit and look at the children they are happy and well adjusted. We are moving on to first grade and will miss our Goddard Family!!!!

We transferred our toddler daughter from another daycare to the Goddard School in Nashua and we wish we had started her here in the first place! We adore the teachers and really appreciate the consistency with staff. We also LOVE that the school uses the Tadpoles app to send pictures of our daughter throughout the day as well as a very detailed note at the end of the day with all of her meals, nap, diapers, and activities. The facility itself is beautiful, clean and secure. The outdoor play areas are really nice, and we love that they take the kids outside almost every day. The school feels well managed and its been easy to communicate with both teachers and front office. Our daughter has only been here for two months and we have already seen so much growth and advancement. There are many daycare centers in the Greater Nashua area (and my husband and I had previously toured quite a few of them) but Goddard is definitely the standard. It feels like a hidden gem!

I would give 5 stars of this daycare. I son went to another daycare in exit 5, and the teacher even criticize my 20 months old son even he is still in the transition period. So we quit that one and moved to Goodard, and I am extremely satisfied with the outcome, since I am able to see from my son's face upon pick up to see if he had a good day or not. Several times, I saw the teaching is holding my son to calm him down, and very patient, very accountable, Good Job! Jenisis. And now my son is very attached with Jenesis and I am even a little bit jealous but happy to see that. I saw some bad reviews from several years ago, but I think that's why the previous owner sold the business to the current responsible owner. I would definitely recommend this daycare to anyone regardless or sex and regions. Love this daycare!!!

We had a great experience at the Goddard School from 2011 to 2017. Both of our kids attended the school and were well prepared for PreK and 1st Grade, with our 1st Grader at an above grade reading level thanks to Miss Keri and Miss Sam!

Brooke Tamposi

My children graduated from the Goddard school with knowledge and social skills that were in the upper percentile of their peers in their subsequent schools. The Goddard teachers allow for hands-on learning, give individualized attention, and allow for each child to explore their creativity at their own pace. Each day was consistent and positive. Teachers had innovative lesson plans and provided a variety of mediums to explore a wide range of topics.

Our son was in a large chain daycare before going to Goddard...We've seen such an amazing difference since he started in their toddler room in March! He now asks how many days until the next time he goes, always tells us about what he did that day and is no longer afraid to use the bathroom at school (a huge issue we had at his previous daycare). The splash days have been great this Summer and we love all the hands on learning our son gets to do! His teachers have been amazing and genuinely care about him. They made his transition into his new surroundings quite seemless and have definitely helped him become better at sharing. As far as management, they've been so flexible with my part time work schedule (that often changes last minute), always returning my emails promptly and greet my son/us by name with smiles. Can't say enough good things!

Both my daughters went to the Goddard school, Nashua NH. They started when they were infants and stayed through kindergarten. Over the past 8 years my girls had some wonderful teachers. Both girls were fortunate to have Miss Sam for kindergarten. Miss Sam was such a delight and very professional any time we had any questions or concerns during the school year. I believe Miss Sam was the main instrument for both my girls having such successful years. The staff, teachers, curriculum, facility, etc are wonderful. I highly recommend the Goddard School, Nashua to anyone looking for a place to send their children.
