We strive to maintain a healthy, nurturing and stimulating environment for our children from six weeks old to six-years-old.

Goddard’s Guide to Getting Along, our good manners program
CPAA – we are proud to introduce the Children’s Progress Academic Assessment for our Pre-K and Kindergarten children. This computerzied program individually assesses each child formatively, giving our teachers the ability to further tailor the curriculum to meet the needs of each child.

Utilizing Goddard’s unique FLEX Learning Program, our goal is to nurture each child’s emotional, social, cognitive and physical development. We appreciate that each child is an individual with their own interests and needs. Each of our teachers takes special consideration of children’s individual needs as they plan engaging and meaningful activities for the children. At our School, our activities are teacher-directed, but child-centered. We support our teachers in delivering meaningful, child-centered lessons. The addition of our new Interactive White Board will give our teachers the ability to add a new dimension to their lessons.

At our School, we know it is a special privilege to be entrusted with the care of your children. Therefore, we maintain open and ongoing communication with our families, who walk through our doors every morning. We communicate through the distribution of Daily Activity Reports, letters to parents, newsletters and an open-door policy with our administrative team.

We are conveniently located off of exit 109 on the Garden State Parkway and off of Shrewsbury Avenue in Tinton Falls. Whether arranging for a tour or simply dropping in, we look forward to having the opportunity to tell you more about our program, introduce you to our amazing faculty and learn more about what you are looking for in a preschool program.
