The Goddard School of Celina

"We’ve had an excellent experience so far. Ms. Nubia, Ms Donna and all the Directors have made our daughters transition seamless. Our daughter started off very anxious, throwing up and crying repeatedly. This made us super anxious and if we didn’t have the intentional support of everyone who dealt directly with her through out the day, we would certainly have had a rougher time. We got great updates during the day, her teachers remained patient and the directors continued to assure us that she will acclimatize. We had discussions of how best to get her comfortable and we could feel the genuine care. The strategies discussed worked! She is acclimatizing, and her daily updates give us so much joy (we eagerly look forward to them). She is thriving daily, learning and expressing new words/gestures… so great to see the positive influence so soon. We look forward to her growing and learning more within this amazing setting."

"Our daughter has attended since she was 2 years old and will be moving on to elementary school in September. She loves her school so much she is sad when it’s not a school day. The educational activities in the classroom are always so fun and hands on. Ms Amber and Ms. Amy do an amazing job with the pre-k class. We have our 9 month old in the nursery with Ms. Eden, Ms. Michelle, Ms. Dottie who care for and love those babies as their own family. We could not be more grateful to have the love and care our kiddos receive at Goddard. The owners and directors are very thoughtful and hands on to support the families and staff."

"My granddaughter loves her school and is learning so much! We are so thankful for the PreK teachers (Amy, Amber, Jackie, and Samantha) who teach her and make learning exciting. Jordan is a wonderful floating teacher who helps keep her on track with her daily visits. We highly recommend Goddard to anyone looking for childcare in the area."

"I definitely cannot say enough good things about Goddard Celina! I have high standards when it comes to childcare. After trying out many of the daycares in the area, we were finally able to happily settle in at Goddard Celina, where we truly felt comfortable leaving our kids. My daughters (one in the infant room and one in Pre-k 2) are absolutely THRIVING. Not only do I feel like the staff is helping them learn and grow, but I know they love my babies like their own. Ms. Eden, Ms. Michelle, and Ms. Dottie are so great with the littlest baby's. They are constantly moving around the room, feeding, changing, cleaning, teaching, and entertaining. They never seem frustrated or flustered, they just knock it all out with such ease. They are THE SWEETEST! My daughter in pre-k 2 seems so happy to go to school each day. Ms. G and Ms. Jackie have already taught her so much in the short time she's been in their class. Additionally, their class room management is AMAZING! They have a lot of kiddos to teach and every time I'm there, the kids in their class are well behaved, on task, and smiling. To top it all off, the owners, Justin and Smitha, as well as the entire front office staff are the best! They truly care about kids and are so down to earth. They know each kid by name and do soooo much for the families there. THANK YOU GODDARD CELINA!"

"As a parent I wouldn’t possibly choose any other place for my son to go to school. Each one of the teachers are more than amazing! From Ms. Hannah that was very patient passing to Ms. Donna that he adores and Ms. Nubia that made it so fun for him. He talks about how smiley is Ms. Summon and I love how Ms. Kavitha takes care of him. Whenever Ms. Kim says goodbye she is loving and always very respectful to the parents. Even teachers that are not his teachers like Ms. Burris are loving and say hi whenever they encounter him. My other kids that have participated in summer camp loved having Ms. Barbara, Ms. Jordan and my now kindergarten kid says of all his teachers Ms. Jackie is his favorite teacher ever and he always had fun with Ms. Sam as well. Ms. Shelsy always greeted them very politely in her class every morning. To be honest it’s a great group of amazing educators! And it just shows the great work that is put in from the top. Biggest shout out to the Director Ms Ashley! Cherry on top the owners are just a blessing for the school!"
