We also wanted to take this opportunity to tell you, as well as the rest of the staff, that we have certainly enjoyed our many years in the Goddard system. The girls have had wonderful experiences with many great teachers and have developed life long friendships along the way. We will miss the school and the people. The programs have laid a solid foundation for learning and interacting with others that continue to expand as the kids grow. We thank all of the staff for the pleasant environment and effort that has been given over the years while working with our family.

Common questions

The answers people ask us for most often.

How do I contact a provider I found here?

In most cases the provider’s direct number is included in their listing. When it is not, we list the number of the Child Care Licensing Program — you may call that number for more information, or search for the provider online.

Will ChildcareCenter pass a message on to a provider for me?

No. ChildcareCenter only provides information, so enrolment questions, tuition questions and job enquiries need to go to the provider directly using the contact details on their listing. We cannot forward them and we cannot share contact details a provider has not published.

I run a daycare — how do I correct or remove my listing?

Use suggest an update on your listing to correct any detail, or claim the listing to manage it yourself. If you have closed or no longer provide care, contact us and we will update the listing to show that.
