We have had a wonderful experience at Goddard school, Kirkland. The teachers are warm and attentive and clearly love what they do. My son has been through 2 classes and just transitioned to the third and what stood out most to us is that they hold kids to consistent expectations and follow through. Discipline here is steady and fair, and the kids respond to it. Communication with parents has been excellent. We get regular, specific updates about how the day went, not just generic notes, and the teachers are always approachable at drop-off and pickup. When we’ve had questions or concerns, they’ve listened and followed up. A special shout out to Miss Min and Miss Navkiran. At bedtime, our son tells us all about his day what he made, what they sang, what they played and the teacher’s names come up every single night. That says more than anything we could write. They’re patient, encouraging, and genuinely invested in each child.

Choosing a first daycare for your little one is never easy, but Mrs. Daisy and Mariah made the transition for our son, completely seamless. From the time he was 1 until turning 2, this was his very first daycare experience, and we could not have asked for a more nurturing, loving environment. Words cannot express the peace of mind we had every single day knowing he was in their care. The dedication, warmth, and genuine affection they showed him were extraordinary. Our son grew and learned so much during his time here, and his face would light up with the biggest smile the moment he saw Mrs. Daisy and Mariah. They didn't just care for him; they felt like an extension of our family. We are endlessly grateful for the foundation they helped build for him. Highly, highly recommended!

Our son started at this school when he was just one year old, and after a year here, we couldn’t be happier. Miss Daisy and Miss Maria have been amazing teachers, so kind and patient. They truly care about the children and make them feel safe and loved. The school has a calm, nurturing environment, and everyone is incredibly accommodating and supportive of the different needs of children and their families. We’re so grateful for everything they’ve done and highly recommend this school.

We have had a great experience with the Goddard School in Kirkland! I want to highlight the teachers here, who give so much care and attention to the children, and the curriculum that offers great hands-on learning for the little ones. We've seen a ton of positive progress in our son's development since he joined, and we really appreciate the diligence of the staff here!

"We absolutely love Goddard Kirkland! It was our son’s first time in daycare at age 2, and he adjusted so quickly thanks to teacher Mylene. Mylene is nurturing, attentive, and truly cares about the children. Thank you for making this milestone so smooth for our family."

Goddard Kirkland has been amazing for our 2-year-old, especially teacher Mylene! She guides the kids through fun classes where they learn a ton, while also teaching them essential life skills. Thanks to her care and great communication, our son has gained so much independence.

Our family has had an absolutely wonderful experience with Goddard. Our son started here when he was just 4.5 months old and is now 3, and our daughter began at 3 months and still attends as well. Having both of our children here for such an important stage of their lives has given us so much peace of mind. The teachers and staff are truly exceptional - caring, attentive, and genuinely invested in the children. They create a warm, nurturing environment where our kids feel safe, loved, and excited to learn each day. It’s clear how much thought and care goes into everything they do, from daily routines to developmental support. We are incredibly grateful for the love and consistency they’ve provided our children over the years. We couldn’t recommend this daycare more highly and feel so lucky to be part of this community.

My 5-year-old daughter loves going to school every day. The teachers are caring, supportive, and have helped her grow in confidence, learning, and social skills. The school provides a safe, clean, and positive environment for children. Ms.Shweta, Ms.Penny, and management team are also very supportive and approachable, and they truly care about the children and families. Overall, we are very happy with our experience and would highly recommend the school to others.
