Reviews
Excellent experience all around. If you're looking for a place to send your children for daycare, this is the one. Our two children loved the teachers, director Amy, and owners Laura and Joe. The teachers really get to know your children and attend to their needs. They listen to parental requests and if there are any problems, they immediately notify you via cell. We felt at ease when we sent our two children to Goddard of Piscataway. The Director, Amy, was a delight to speak to and made sure to communicate any important messages via email. Laura, the owner, was always a pleasure to speak to and courteous to our children. The app they use, called Tadpoles, was wonderful as we got to download photos/videos of our children daily and got a daily report of what was done. We loved the communication, the friendliness, the cohesiveness we received at Goddard School of Piscataway. Highly recommended!!
My Son attended Goddard school Piscataway for Pre K and later was at summer camp here. The staff,teachers and curriculum at this school is par excellence. Our teacher ,Ms Staci was phenomenal!! She works on each child's strength and weaknesses and provides regular updates. The school gives plenty of opportunities to kids and they have the most integrated curriculum .. We have had nothing but a great experience here. Ms Sonal,the kindergarten teacher is so patient and great with kids.We recommend it to anyone who is looking to set their kids up for a great future!
My son has been at goddard school since he was 12 weeks old. He just graduated pre-k. The staff has always been courteous, attentive and welcoming. I encourage anyone who is looking for a great daycare to come to goddard piscataway.
The Goddard School of Piscataway is excellent! The teachers are caring and compassionate, the administration is professional and helpful. There isn't anywhere else I would put my children. I'm looking forward to the summer to try out their summer camp program.
My child and I had a wonderful experience at the Goddard at Piscataway. All I would say is that I never picked up a unhappy child at the end of the day: The K programMs Anneabeth is intense and the child has an amazing learning curve.The teachers work very sincerely giving extra attention to each child's need.
I agree with the review from Tim Maguire. Had 1 child graduate from pre-K there and go to kindergarten at Metuchen public school. It was a blaze for her. She asked me to go to summer camp this year there. I had 1 child who joined briefly at infants/first steps 12 months and now is in pre-K, also having an excellent time there. And a child who joined at first steps and enjoyed every minute at the school. Ms Jill, Ms Lynn, Ms Caroline, Ms Jess, Ms Kristen, Ms Stacy are there for at least 6 years that I know them when I brought my first child there, They are absolutely amazing teachers and I would do it all over again with them. There are other great teachers for at least 4 years Ms Stephanie, Ms Laura. Its really nice to be greeted so nicely by them. Ms Laura the owner was once a teacher, the director and now owns the school together with Mr Joe, are always accommodating and go out of their way to help you. Ms Anneabeth, now director was also a teacher, has extremely high people skills and is an outstanding person. Once I walked to pick up my child and she was reading to the kids. The school is highly attractive to the kids and adults, the kids love it, they have a blast there while they learn about everything, from letters to planets and everything in between. I highly recommend. If I had more kids I would bring again to this school.
An amazing school for newborns, toddlers, and kids. Our daughter has been at this location for over 2 years. The teacher to student ratio is wonderful, as is the teacher retention. I would recommend this Goddard location to anyone.
Picking and choosing their enrolled children? Or are they racist? Advance warning - long post I am or use to be a huge Goddard School fan. My first born went to two Goddard Schools. As I was expecting my second born, I obviously turned to one as well which is near my work. Also a current co-worker has one of there children currently enrolled and soon to be expecting her second one soon. So with no question asked, my husband and I with another co-woker went to take a tour of this facility. We were looking for January/February 2018 enrollment but was told there was a waiting list and the next availability would be in March. I asked if there is anything we could do to ensure our spot for March, and was told by the owner Laura that taking a tour would put our name on the wait list automatically, nothing else needed. I went above and beyond with my work to get a delay start of March so my NB could go to the there as preferred. I recently called at the end of November to ensure my son's guaranteed spot for March was still available. First, I spoke with the director, who was very standoffish on the phone. She informed me there wasn't any spots available until April now. I was SHOCKED! I had asked for the director, Laura who at that time was not available. Few days later, I had called back to speak with her and left her a msg. She left me a voice mail, stating "My director had informed you about everything already, if you are still unsure give me a call back." She's lucky that I did not hear that voicemail until I had called her back already, otherwise she would have gotten a piece of my mind. When I called back, Laura informs me that the next availability is early Spring, once I asked what that means she says Early May!!! I was very disappointed. Still keeping my composure, I had asked how is that possible and when was anyone going to inform me about this change..? I had sacrificed my maternity leave to ensure my son had a spot in March. She stated during the time of the tour that they would contact us when a spot was available a deposit was not needed because the tour was sufficient. The story changed when I inquired further. She explained that we do not call to let you know, if you want to ensure your spot, you need to put in a deposit." I was stunned! I told her that this is new and this information was not told. I continued on by saying that I had specifically asked her about a deposit and had brought my checkbook as well to make one. Her response was, "I apologize if you did not understand me, but this is how we have been doing it for past 23 years, this is nothing new." Biting my tongue and keeping my chin in mind, I had asked her if she could email me the enrollment paperwork since I wanted to have a guaranteed spot for next availability, I would try to drop it off or drop it in the mail with check etc. Now, 24 hours later, the next day, I have NOTHING! Not a single paperwork in my email inbox. Later that day, I had confirmed with both my husband and my co-woker who went with us to confirm if I was having a Pregnancy Brain and totally misunderstand her during the tour of having a spot available in March and tour is sufficient enough OR she did NOT mention any deposit? Both confirmed my understanding. So clearly Laura, you had provided me with wrong info and two other people confirms it. To make this even more interesting, my co-worker whom I recommended this place to, took a tour, and during the tour, she was asked to make a deposit. Now, her NB has a guaranteed spot for March. As you can imagine, this is why I feel we are being ignored and purposely not provided a spot, interestingly enough, both of my co-workers are White. During the tour, I had noticed very little to hardly any minorities in the entire school. In the current New Born Classroom, there were zero minorities! And they are clearly going above and beyond to not only be very unprofessional, and providing me with wrong information to me just to ensure that my mixed African -American/ Asian child would not get into this facility.
