The Goddard School

Our mission is to exceed every parent’s expectations while creating a personalized learning experience for each individual child. We look forward to showing you our beautiful school and how we implement our mission!

In support of our mission, areas of growth and development are highlighted through our daily lesson plans, which our faculty brings to life in appropriate and attainable ways. Utilizing the Goddard FLEX Learning Program, teachers encourage each child to progress at his or her own pace in accordance with his or her individual needs and abilities. For more information about our curriculum, please click on the “Curriculum” link at the top of this page and schedule a tour to see play-based learning in action!

We are Dona and Tim Lawler, on-site owners and operators of both this school and our first Naperville location on 104th Street at Plainfield-Naperville Road. We value family and education and were inspired to open our schools by our own three children, who showed us the importance of high-quality education in a fun, loving and caring environment.

A Jungle Safari is the theme at our school and we have beautiful murals throughout our new building. Whether your child is a Snuggle Bear, a Romping Rhino, an Earnest Elephant or a Zany Zebra, The Goddard School will make a positive difference in your childs life. Our warm, loving atmosphere features year round half-day and extended day programs from 6:30 AM to 6:30 PM, Monday through Friday. Our programs are designed to enhance the emotional, social, intellectual, and physical development of your child from six weeks to six years of age. Two separate playgrounds and an indoor gym will challenge and delight your child at every age. We also offer after-school enrichment and a summer program for children up to seven years of age.
