What parents say

My son was in a daycare prior to Goddard that closed. They struggled with constant turnover and my son had a new teacher every few months. I’m so happy we are now with Goddard! The turnover there is pretty much non-existent and I’m so happy to have the same people greeting me day in and day out, always with a smile. I truly LOVE Goddard Lakeway.

Goddard is a wonderful daycare. From the second we met Raul, the wonderful directors and teachers we knew we were in good hands! From the moment you arrive in the morning everyone is really friendly and outgoing. And genuinely so also! They truly care! Our children are always happy to arrive and have the best time. Thank you for being family!

We needed infant care for our daughter and Goddard Lakeway was highly recommended. We toured several places but ultimately settled on this one. From day 1, our daughter has been loved and cared for. She loves going to school and is happy and content both at drop off and pick up. The staff and teachers are all so kind and friendly. We cannot recommend this school enough!
