The Goddard School of Wappingers Falls

We could not be happier with our family's experience at The Goddard School. The staff are professional and compassionate people who have helped our daughter develop and grow into the wonderful and well-rounded child that she is today. We highly recommend The Goddard School.

Fabulous staff and administration! Have two children there now, and look forward to sending our youngest in September! Goddard is hands down the best!!!

In just one week at The Goddard School, I experienced one of the happiest and hardest moments as a mother. Our 2-year old (who normally clung to me and cried when I dropped her off at her previous daycare) ran into her room, threw her coat off, sat down at the table where an activity was already set up for her, lifted her arm up and waved “bye mommy” without even looking in my direction.nnShe was so happy and excited to start her Goddard Day that she didn’t even waste time giving me a proper good bye. Of course, I was sad that she was not going to miss me, but seeing that excitement and joy in our little girl was a million times greater.nnOur experience at The Goddard School has been life changing. Our daughter comes home every day singing a new song, proud of a fun new art project, or signing a new word. As parents, we often joke about how she’s become smarter than us now! Not to mention how ecstatic we were when she coughed into the crook of her arm and said “excuse me” for the first time, which we definitely did not teach her!nnThe teachers and staff are absolutely wonderful. They’ve created a kind, warm, inviting atmosphere that is welcoming to all. Our daughter adores each and every one, which is obvious as she smiles and calls out “bye-bye” to them all as we leave for the day.nnShe’s truly developing into a very well-rounded little girl, exploring her creativity, her physical abilities and learning to become a responsible, polite individual. We couldn’t be happier with our choice to enroll our daughter here. We’re looking forward to all the exciting adventures to come!

Our son Nathan has been attending The Goddard School of Wappingers Falls, NY since its grand opening in January 2013. The school, the owner, director, teachers and staff have exceeded our expectations. They are always warm and welcoming. We are very pleased with Nathan's experience thus far. The security aspect was very enticing. We were pleasantly surprised to see the hand scanner that only lets in approved adults. With recent events, that was extremely important to us. The daily activity report is wonderful because it offers a plethora of information that helps initiate conversations with Nathan about his day. The school is full of new toys and books and everything is clean. We often see toys spread out on the tables in the morning that have been sanitized the night before. We highly recommend The Goddard School of Wappingers Falls, NY!

My two girls have been attending the Goddard school for 8 months now, and we couldn't be happier in our decision to send them there. We moved to the area from North Jersey and visited/interviewed a few local schools....we decided to go with Goddard due to the facilities / the owner's enthusiasm about education / the Goddard brand name. The girls have both grown in so many ways over the past few months...they love to paint and their vocabulary has gotten alot better (they even picked up Spanish!!)nnThanks Goddard of Wappingers for providing a great environment for our girls to spend their day. They look forward to school days and talk about their teachers Ms. Julie and Ms Deena all the time!nn~VKD
