I just called and spoke with someone to schedule a tour (The Director- Jennifer- I think she goes by Jen?) She was very helpful and informative. I've been struggling with the thought of sending my daughter to daycare considering the current times but she made me feel at ease. Keeya and I can't wait to come in! Thank you!

I came in for a tour at this school about a week before I planned to enroll my 1 year old- I was still shopping around for a quality daycare center and I wanted to weigh my options. Unfortunately, my experience here was not like those who left reviews before me. The initial tour was fine for the most part (Jen, who I believe is the director, gave the tour). She wasn't very enthusiastic but she also wasn't rude or anything, but I assumed she had had a long day and with how crazy things are with COVID, I didn't think too much of it. She gave me an application and a health appraisal sheet (along with the schools brochure) to take with me, but she never gave me a price sheet or she didn't offer to at least write down the rates for me. She pulled out a price sheet on a clip board and told me I could copy down the rates or take a picture. I thought that wasn't very accommodating or \customer service friendly\ but I just took a picture of the rates and called it a day. Finally, when I called back a few days later to let her know that I wanted to enroll my son, Jen answered, and I asked her if there was anything else I needed to bring along with the application. This time, she was very short with me and made it very clear that she had no interest in answering any of my questions. I had to ask her three follow up questions just to get simple information/clarification about the registration process. When I finally asked her if they still had a space for my toddler, she actually 'sighed' into the phone and paused for about 7-10 seconds before saying \yes\ with an attitude. It's unfortunate because I was really looking forward to my son attending Goddard (this particular location since it's closest to home). As a person of color, this was a very unwelcoming experience, overall. However, maybe this happened for a reason. If she treats a prospective parent like that, I wouldn't want my baby there.
Seems like a nice pre school
My family and I love this daycare! The owner, Carl is such a nice man and very accommodating. I got the sense that he truly cares about all of the children who attend his facility and he cares a lot about their safety. In fact, all of the staff is very helpful and friendly. My son loves going there. Sometimes I will call and check in on him and Ms. Ashley and Ms. Michelle have always been so sweet and helpful. I would absolutely recommend Goddard School in Canton.
We send our 4 year old here, he has been coming for a little over a year. We were debating between here and a Montessori school. The proximity to our house made this choice better but we haven't had any regrets. We enjoy the teachers. Our son initially didn't like coming to school and ultimately now that he has friends, he doesn't mind. Carl does a great job running the program. As far as education goes, it has some structure. Our son now holds a crayon and pencil correctly. He isn't advancing fast with writing or reading, but my wife tells me that I just don't know what a four year old should be able to do :) My favorite part of this place is the sense of community I get. Our son has gone to many birthday parties and we've gotten to know a group of parents. They know my son and we've gotten to know the other kids and have been able to set up playdates and such.
