The Goddard School of Chicago (West Loop)

Great daycare. My child is learning new things everyday as he came home and said something new that the teacher taught him. This daycare is nice and clean, my child never get sick after joining this center. My child has been sick horribly from other daycare for 3 months, but after going to Goddard west loop, hes much happier and never get sick. Teachers are very nice, patient and willing to help the kids with getting them to involve with the group, keep them nice and clean everyday. I highly recommended to this daycare without any other consideration. My kid becomes much more outgoing and happier when go to school.

Goddard School has truly been a blessing for our family. Our daughter started at about 1 1/2 and it's been wonderful to see her grow and develop. She's almost 2 1/2 now, and it seems like she's always coming home with something new she learned at school. The staff has been great, everyone is always so friendly and welcoming. The teachers really seem to care about the kids in their class. The teachers communicate how our she's doing every pickup and we always look forward to the photos updates we get throughout the day. We'd recommend this daycare to anyone. Our child has thrived in the environment they've created.

Everyone at the school is phenomenal at caring for children. Its a joy dropping off our two year old, getting updates throughout the day, and picking him up.

New facility with very friendly teachers and staff. This was the first daycare that we sent our two-year old daughter to, and we felt that she was well taken care of. It felt safe with the biometric locks, and we really enjoyed the daily logs, videos, and pictures they send us. They also do a lot of art work and would send home some very heartwarming gifts sometimes. My wife and I also appreciated the weekend events they have every several months where they bring in a performer to entertain the kids. Most importantly though, our daughters teachers Ms Victoria and Ms Alyeyah are wonderful and have been very helpful in helping our daughter socially develop and be happy at school. Our daughter became very attached to them and would not want to go home sometimes. There was quite a bit of teacher turnover in the classroom when our daughter first started, but they seemed to have fixed that problem. We are moving to a Montessori this month though because an opening popped up and it is much closer and more convenient for us. Our family enjoyed the time at Goddard and will miss this place very much. All the staff here seem to work together like a family helping each other out.

As first time parents, the transition to school is an uneasy one, but the Goddard School West Loop made our experience enjoyable and relaxing by providing our baby with incredibly thoughtful care on a daily basis. My son was in the Infant Room 2 with Ms. Paolo and Ms. Yajayra. Every morning he would light up seeing the teachers at drop off. Receiving pictures of all the activities he was engaging in during the day was not only heartwarming, but pleasantly surprisingly - I never expected that you could do so much with a 9 month old! From music, to arts and crafts, learning about colors and shapes, the school's curriculum was very impressive and unexpected (in a good way). The stress of the workday would melt away every time I got a Tadpoles app notification! It's also important to mention the facilities and the administrative staff. The security, newness, and cleanliness of the facility is a bar above many of the daycares we toured in the surrounding areas. My son's toys were sanitized on a daily basis, and the class also had new toys coming in on rotation. Additionally, the administrative staff and owner were incredibly responsive & receptive to all my emails and calls - starting from the tour all the way to ending our time at the Goddard, much to our sadness. We have nothing but great things to say about the Goddard School of Chicago West Loop, and would like to thank everyone for being so wonderful to our family.
