The Goddard School of Chamblee (Brookhaven)

"Goddard is an amazing school!! The teachers are super attentive, the school curriculum is great and overall all of the families and staff are very friendly!"

"Goddard Brookhaven/Chamblee has become our second family. They genuinely care about my child, and my child is always happy when I pick her up in the afternoons. She is 3.5 and already learning to write, learning phonics, etc. They have a focused curriculum that has allowed my daughter to grow and thrive. The Goddard families and all of the children are really wonderful. I cannot say enough good things about every teacher my child has had since she was 9 months old. The school owner is passionate about her school and her students… she leads with heart and intellect. The school staff is friendly, helpful and responsive. It is apparent that most everyone who works there genuinely loves what they do and cares about each and every student!"

"Sent our 13mo daughter to Goddard Chamblee with big hopes earlier this year; however, after two months of constant illness, 4 ear infections, ear tube surgery, and multiple sickness breakouts in my daughters classroom we decided to take her out. Further, multiple times when we picked up our daughter we would see one teacher alone in the room which clearly broke the teacher/student ratio. Most importantly, our daughters personality changed as she was clearly unhappy and tired from her days at Goddard, hugely influenced by her constant sickness. At the end, we chose to pay the 60 day contract breakup clause than to keep sending our daughter to Goddard. The classroom and facilities are OK, and we had two good teachers in the classroom. However, the cleaning and sickness protocols clearly did not work as well as they could or should. The owner said they disinfected classrooms deeply everytime there was a contagious illness; however, we heard from one of the teachers the cleaning overall was subpar. When we spoke to the owner about our concerns, she told us she could not stop kids from getting sick and that our daughter likely just had a weak inmune system as a new joiner to daycare. While I understand sickness is a part of getting kids together, I’ve had two other friends with kids at Goddard Chamblee who suffered through constant Illness as well and decided to take their kids out in less than 6mo. I never want to bad mouth a business, but the 5 star rating is hugely misleading. I hope families make the best informed decision to pick or not pick Goddard Chamblee"

"I cannot say enough good things about Goddard and the staff there. Every one of them, from the Directors to the Teachers, treats our baby like their own. She practically leaps out of my arms to see them. I love the pictures they send, the artwork I get, and the funny stories I hear about what our baby did at school when I pick her up. Goddard has become an extension of our family!"

"Both our children go here and we just absolutely love it. The staff is really great and each of my kids gets individualized attention from their teachers. Any issues or things we need to know about are brought to our attention immediately. We just feel like there is a great level of care and genuine interest in their wellbeing. My kids think school is fun and look forward to going every day. We would definitely recommend this to our friends and family. Thanks Goddard! The Berger Family"
