Best Emergency Childcare in Garland, TX

Infants

Families love the balance of nurturing care and milestone development in this program. In a warm, safe, stimulating classroom, children have a primary caregiver to attend to their needs. Plus, our exclusive, milestone-focused curriculum, Learn from the Start™, was developed by our educational experts to focus on key developmental milestones specific to infants. We emphasize each child’s development, rather than specific age, because all children grow and learn at their own pace, and in their own unique way. We’re also here when you need us. Ask your school about flexible enrollment options to fit your family’s schedule.

Infant Classroom

In the Infant program, our teachers provide your baby with all the cuddles and care they need, as well as opportunities to begin learning about the world around them. Our proprietary education program, Wonder of Learning™, celebrates your baby’s natural curiosity within the classroom environment and models how to explore safely. Nurturing teachers narrate your baby’s experiences to build a strong foundation in 21st century skills for problem solving and building relationships.

Twos Classroom

In the Twos classroom, patient, caring teachers guide children through playful exploration. They help your little one navigate big emotions while providing hands-on learning experiences that nurture their innate curiosity. Your toddler is constantly learning new things about the world around them. At The Goddard School®, our team is here to work with your little one every day as they play, learn and gain the skills they need to prepare for preschool. Our Wonder of Learning™ education program will immerse your child in literacy, science, arts and math brought together in one activity for a more holistic—and fun—approach to learning.

Infant Program

At this age, your infant is mainly learning through observation and exploration. For example, as our Infant teachers talk and sing with your child during feeding, diaper changes and playtime, your little one is beginning to understand language and conversation. Nurturing interactions like these will fill your child’s day and can be adapted and personalized to meet their individual needs.

Toddler Program

In our Toddler program, you’ll find carefully selected equipment that our newest walkers love to climb on, crawl through and hide in while stretching their gross motor skills. Teachers also use books, toys, games and other materials to create exciting explorations into colors, shapes, science and more.

Ladybugs

Step inside the Ladybugs Classroom, and you’ll find a space filled with warmth, wonder, and the gentle hum of giggles as tiny hands explore new textures, shapes, and sounds. Soft rugs invite curious crawlers and wobbly walkers to take their next confident step, while low, child-friendly shelves brim with colorful board books, sensory bins, and plush toys. Our nurturing teachers guide little ones through sing-alongs, baby sign language, and interactive storytelling, helping them find their voice and express emotions. Through gentle routines, your child will gain a sense of security while beginning their exciting journey of discovery.

Butterflies

Welcome to the Butterflies Classroom, where boundless energy meets endless discovery! Bright, sunlit spaces filled with puzzles, sensory tables, and pretend play areas spark the imagination of our eager two-year-olds. Here, every moment is an opportunity to learn, from building towers that teach early engineering skills to finger painting sessions that develop fine motor coordination. This is a place where words begin to flow, as little learners expand their vocabulary through story time, songs, and hands-on play. Teachers gently encourage self-help skills like handwashing, sharing, and putting on their shoes—small but mighty steps toward independence.
