We have loved having our daughter here! The staff is caring and my little one adores everyone. They have managed and implemented Covid safety precautions well. Highly recommend !

I am so thankful The Goddard School was recommended to us! We are so happy with all the love and education our son receives. I feel like he is constantly changing, growing, and hitting all his milestones due to the curriculum that he receives while he is there. Miss Lisette and Miss Bralynn are so great with him! Truly the best the staff!

My daughter loves school and Ms. Consuelo is an angel. Due to COVID restrictions, we’ve had little correspondence but, I can tell she’s so kind and caring of my daughter and all of her students. She is very supportive. Ny daughter is learning a lot from her.I also could not be more satisfied with Ms. Meghan and Ms. Caitlin in the warmth, kindness and patience they always have with my daughter and me. It really makes all the difference!!

When looking for a center there are so many things that we as parents are concerned about. One of my biggest concerns right now is the way that schools are handling the health and safety within the school. The Goddard School Bethlehem have gone above and beyond making sure that things are clean, sanitized and the health of each child is monitored closely. I always see the teachers and administration with their masks on. Both of my children look forward to going each morning and talk all the way home about what a great day they had. The teachers are empathetic and nurturing making sure that the needs of parents and children are accommodated. Both my children have learned so much and everyone they meet comment on how smart they are. I owe that all to the school and the teachers, the curriculum includes so many hands on activities in all subject areas of school and life. The Administration is always willing to help and answer any and all questions we have. I highly recommend this school, all worries aside during these trying times.

It was a difficult decision for me deciding to put my son in daycare so I could go back to work part time but I have been so happy with the care he has gotten that I feel much more confident in my decision. The teachers in the infant room are great and make me feel like they care about my son. I also love the picture updates I get to my email throughout the day. The office has also been flexible and has let me switch a day here and there to accommodate my work schedule. Overall Im very happy with the care my son gets there and would recommend.

I was super excited about my daughter attending this school/daycare but realized during COVID-19 that it is only about money to the owner. The owner Dolly is super unprofessionally and disrespectful. During the most diffcult time of our lives, she only cared about money. They continued charging me even though they said they wouldnt. Everytime I was charged, i called and the staff apologized and said they would refund me or place a credit on my account. Well last week I was charged again and was told I had a balance. I then asked for a refund for all the times they charged when the daycare was closed and was told I was going to get the full amount. The owner Dolly, stated I was lying and that no one from her staff ever stated any of what I claimed. Well come to find out (for them) everything I said was true and they had no choice but to give me back what was due if they didnt want to be sued. The bad part about this whole experience is, my child wasnt ever considered - when it came to the owner. She only cared about - being money hunger, even though she got relief money from the state and recieved funding from other state programs. Now, i have to look for new private Kindergarten program that will take my daughter this upcoming school year. I would never go back there and would never recommend this place to anyone. As long as Dolly is the owner this business will continue to stay unethical, unlawful and unprofessional. If the head is corrupt than the business is already tainted. This school really broke my heart by the way I was treated. The LUST of money hardens the heart. FYI: The owner never called or apologized for calling me a liar

Goddard is a wonderful place! We adopted our daughter one year ago from an orphanage in India at age 18 months but developmentally she was approximately 13 to 16 months as assessed by a pediatrician specializing in international adoptions. She started Goddard School Bethlehem in January and she has loved every minute. She has learned so much, interacted with wonderful children and adults and has so much fun there that she doesnt want to leave at the end of the day. She has blossomed there and on an especially happy note, she was recently evaluated by the same pediatrician who she saw one year ago and at 32 months of age, she has been assessed to be at 33 to 35 months developmentally-so not only has she caught up but she has surpassed her development milestones. We absolutely know that Goddard was an essential part of her amazing progress.Thank you Goddard!

The staff and administration at The Goddard School are terrific. They are patient and understanding. They go above and beyond their responsibilities in an effort to help one of their students if they are struggling in an area. They provide both the parents and children with any type of assistance or support they may need. The teachers do an amazing job at educating the children as well as keeping them entertained throughout the day. I have been very happy with them for these past four years and my children and I will miss them dearly. I highly recommend The Goddard School to any family.

I just wanted to take a moment to say how much, both my little girl, and my family LOVES the Goddard School. When my daughter was born it was an interesting journey checking out many other daycare options before settling with the Goddard School. With all the others my gut just never felt right and I wasnt about to leave my most precious possession to anyone less than I thought would take care of her properly. Since being a part of the Goddard School we know a lot of the staff by name. My kid is constantly learning and having fun. She never fights to be let off and every time I pick her up I am greeted with a smile. Not only from my daughter Hazel but from the staff as well. Her knowledge has grown immensely being apart of their programs and I cant say Thank You enough to the Goddard School for taking proper care of my best Buddy. I would recommend this School to anyone!!! Thank you again!!! Brian Strauser - Hazels Daddy!!! :)

The Goddard School is just awesome!!! They offer a lot of activities throughout the day, the teachers provide a nice nurturing environment to the kids. The directors are wonderful and always with a smile on their faces. The owners are great and around mostly all the time. They still have the same teachers from 3 years ago, that means your child will feel safe coming every day to the same teacher, you don’t have a different person every week…My kids just love going to school, its that special place for then. I highly recommend Goddard School in Bethlehem.

I have had my son in The Goddard School for more than a year and without a doubt it is the best day care facility around. Before joining Goddard, my son had been in three other day cares in the Lehigh Valley and taken out within two weeks. I found the other day cares to be dirty, the staff was complacent and the children seemed to be miserable. I know my son was. I was thrilled when I took a tour and spoke with the administrative staff and the owners at Goddard. The staff is genuinely pleasant, courteous and caring. The owners are wonderful and helpful with any of your concerns. I leave my son in their care and have NO worries about his safety and well being. So far the teachers my son has had are happy, energetic, loving and caring. The fact that my son says his teachers names and that he misses them is an indication that their doing something right. At any point you can sit and talk with the teachers and/or any member of the staff and discuss your childs progress I highly recommend this school to anyone thinking of putting their child in day care. Its more than a day care, its an educational experience. The activities keep them busy and keep their minds constantly stimulated.

My daughter has been at the Goddard School for seven months, she arrived to the infant room being 6 months old. We are very happy with the School because they do care about both children and parents. I like the fact that we bring our daughters food so we are sure about the quality of the meals she is getting and also that she is eating what we eat at home. At the infant room teachers work to accommodate parents and childrens needs and follow the schedule that you keep at home. We also like the fact that children get exposed to other languages, particularly Spanish, that they work with art and music, and spend time reading. Teachers are very good at engaging infants so they are not just been looked after, children are learning and developing both physical and intellectual skills. The Goddard School in Bethlehem has diversity both in terms of staff and children, which is plus to us. The ratio between children and teachers is ideal: 4/1. We also like the facilities, which in opposition to some day cares in which a house has been converted into a school, here everything has been designed for its purpose and is clean and well kept. I am having another baby soon and would love to keep both children at the Goddard School. I would highly recommend it!

The hardest thing in this world is to leave your precious gift all day 5 days a week! Knowing they are in the hands of wonderful teachers that love them so much and want them to succeed is so incredibly comforting to me! It makes it easier to say goodbye to my little munchkin!

Our older son has been a student at the Goddard School, Bethlehem since it opened in August 2007. He has received a quality education and looks forward to going to school each day. Academically, he is well prepared for 1st grade and continues to amaze us with what he has learned.We were confident sending our younger son to join him at Goddard at 3 months of age. He is now 18 months old and his teachers have been very caring and fun.Wed recommend Goddard School, Bethlehem to anyone looking for the best care for their little ones.

Our two year old daughter has been at the Goddard School for just over a year. In that time, weve been extremely pleased and impressed with the care shes been given there. Her teachers have all been attentive, kind, and genuinely caring, and she looks forward to going each day. The curriculum is incredibly good as well - she isnt just being baby-sat there, shes learning quite a bit as well. I can honestly say that our daughter has received nothing but positive attention and growth while shes been there, and her experiences there have all benefited her tremendously. I would recommend this facility without any hesitation to anyone looking for daycare in the Bethlehem area.

Our daughter has been coming to the Goddard School (Bethlehem) since August 2011. Weve had an amazing experience. When our daughter first started she was very shy, quiet and almost always unwilling to go to school due to her new environment & her first time being away from her parents. However the faculty staff were very understanding and compassionate to her feelings and she eventually became excited to go to school. Her current teacher has instilled a love for learning in her so much that if she doesnt know something she looks it up even at 5 yrs old its incredible. Our daughter is about to start kindergarten and there is no other place we would want her to be. Another aspect of Goddard we like is how welcoming and approachable the owners and faculty are to any issues. Weve noticed a significant improvement in our daughters social development; gaining confidence, making friends, learning the social sciences, earth science, arts, crafts, & basic things that all pre-K kids should really experience as part of the curriculum and not just the academics. Its made our daughter more well rounded.Overall weve had a good experience with Goddard and I would recommend it to parents who are looking for day care program.

The Goddard school is one of the best things that I invested in for my son. His teachers were amazing. His kindergarten experience far exceeded my expectations. We consider Goddard family not just a school/learning center. The relationships my son and I have developed with other children,parents and staff are sure to last a lifetime. The school is clean, organized, healthy snacks are provided. They even accommodate my sons allergies to peanuts and sesame ( even went as far as making homemade hummus so there was no tahini in it). I love the Bethlehem Goddard school family. If I had to do it all over again I just wish we would have started my son there sooner!

Wonderful staff and teachers! Always feel welcomed and excited to have my son there. Great focus on education and learning through experience. My son has grown ten folds since starting at Goddard! He surprises me everyday with songs or silly chats. Ill never forget the reaction on his grandmothers face when he, a 3 year old, started spouting off all the different continents and something special about each place.A companies success starts at the top and they have a fabulous director (Jenna) who leads the school with love, energy and excitement.I couldnt ask for a better place for my son to be while I work!

EXCELLENT! My daughter has attended the Goddard School for over a year now, and I wouldnt have it any other way. She enjoys waking up everyday with excitement to go see her teachers and friends. They spend a lot of one on one time with her, she always mentions fun things that happen during the day, and parents also recieve a daily report of all activities she participated in! The management at The Goddard School is very flexible..they are always willing to work with you! I am very pleased with the curriculum that Goddard has to offer, her knowledge seems to impress me more and more each day.

My daughter started there when she was three part time. We have been going back for summer camp since she has reached school age. The staff is professional and the facility is well operated. I have never had a significant problem or concern. I would highly recommend this center.

When my daughter entered The Goddard School at ten months I was extremely worried. Being my first child and returning to work I was worried about her care and the fact that there would be eight hours a day five days a week I would not be with her. I quickly watched my daughter fall in love with her teachers, be provided with exceptional care and thrive. She learned so many new skills and was able to socialize with kids her own age all in a truly caring environment. Flash forward almost three years we are so pleased to call The Goddard School and their staff a part of our extended family. Our daughter has continued to thrive, some days she is having so much fun she is upset when it is time to come home! My husband and I would highly recommend The Goddard School to anyone looking for exceptional childcare!

Our son has been going to the Goddard School at Bethlehem for the past 2+ years and I must say he thoroughly enjoys his time at the school. Be it his friends (and hes got a bunch), or his teachers or the director(s)...he is very comfortable with them all. The curriculum that hes gone through so far (hes yet to turn 3, by the way) has been very educational and fun. I have had my little complaints that I usually take up with the directors and/or the owners directly, without any hesitation. They listen to you patiently and try to soak in your ideas where necessary.I read other reviews about frequently changing faces (teachers), which, fortunately, my son has not experienced much.Overall, weve had a good experience and we do look forward to our sons continual journey at the school...

Our daughter attended the pre-k program at the Goddard School in Bethlehem last year and had an amazing and memorable experience. The faculty provided a safe, healthy and enjoyable environment for our daughter to learn and socialize. We have just recently enrolled our daughter in the Summer Program and she is very excited to return to see her friends and teachers. We were very pleased to learn that the Goddard School has enhanced their Summer Program to provide an even more diversified learning experience. The school has also introduced new technology that will allow us to receive updates on our daughter’s activities and memorable moments throughout the day via e-mail incorporating her day with ours. As other parents know, leaving your child in someone elses care is one of the hardest choices to make but this school has earned our trust and partnership for our daughters care and development.

Our daughter has been coming to the Goddard School at Bethlehem since June 2014. She was about 18 month old that time when she first started. The owner, director, and her teacheres were very supportive, approachable, friendly, and caring to her, and soon I noted that our daughter started to look forward to going to the school each day. I also noticed a cheerful improvement in our daughters language and social development. I love to read the daily reports from the school, and seeing our daughters happy face everytime I pick her up from the school comforting to me! No doubt it is the best day care facility around this area, and I highly recommend the Goddard School at Bethlehem to the parents who are looking for a day care with an educational, fun, and safe environment for their children.

I feel The Godard school provides an enriched environment, which allows my daughter to grow. My daughter has been there for about two years, and has blossomed tremendously. The environment provided by The Goddard School has fed her desire to learn and blossom.The curiculum at The Goddard School continues to encourage her zest for knowledge, and allows her to express herself in a more creative manner.The teachers,and staff members have been WONDERFUL in making me feel more than comfortable in knowing she is cared for in the utmost way.Needless to say, I highly recommend Goddard school to all who have a desire for excellent education for their children. :-)Sincerely,Gias Mom

I am looking into this daycare I have a tour coming up this week. I am extremely nervous and very over protective. I attended daycare when I was younger and it was not the best, from my experiences I am very scared of putting him in somebody elses care. I read some very good things but also some very alarming reviews. Can parents who have their child attending or have had children attend people let me know. He is only a year and a half he will be two in November. Thank you very much.

Our two children, ages 5 and 2, have been attending The Goddard School - Bethlehem PA since August 2012. The owners, the Director/Assistant Director and the teacherse have been exceptional. Our children had a great transition to the new school and everyone at the school went above and beyond to make them feel comfortable. The curriculum has been great as our kids are exposed to more than reading and math but science, arts, computers etc. The PreK room has a smart board which has taken the curriculum to a new level. We love to hear about our childrens days and what they learned is always more than I expected them to learn.The school is on top of our childrens medical needs due to their allergies and they keep up-to-date records and the entire staff is notified of all of the kids with allergies so there are never any issues. The staff is quick to call if they have a question or would like to tell us something. We love receiving a daily report about our childrens day with a special note about their date so I feel up-to-date on what happened during their day. The entire staff is caring, loving and seem to love being at the school and that makes a world of difference to us a parents. We cant say enough about how great this school has been for our children.

This school is ok, but Ive had better, I found the owners to be money minded, the biggest issue Ive had is with the snacks they serve to children - it is the cheapest junk food you can get. And the teachers seem to be under a quantity limit. My son was in kindergarten there and he would be given 5-6 popcorns as eve snack. He was hungry hungry even if I picked him up right after snack time. I pay thousands in child care fees and feel it is very unfair that they do this. I also suspect staff is very unhappy, they leave all the time and you end up having new teachers many times a year. I am glad I am done with them.

This school was ok when it started, but has seriously deteriorated in the past. They give the cheapest junk food to kids as snacks and rations that too. Their fees are in the highest spectrum among all goddards Ive seen. Recently they brought ipads for their teachers with the obscene registration fee they change yearly and now all teachers are glued to the ipads instead of interacting with the kids. The teacher are grossly underpaid and change very often. The lawn is a big clover patch and they dont even pay someone to clear the snow from their parking lots. We had to park outside for a long time till the snow melted out. The owners are very money minded and try to squeeze the max in fees and registration fees while giving the least in return.

Used to be much better, over inflated pricing, inflexible, most staff do not have education degrees, despite what they say.

Love the staff and school!
