“McGuire Family Experience:
”Our experience with Good Shepherd has been life changing. We found GSA after trying two other local daycares that had let us down and left us feeling unsure if we could leave our child with someone again.
We were so relieved by the end of the tour with GSA knowing we had found the place! The very first day my daughter ran right inside smiling and didn’t fuss about drop off at all. I was blown away by how comfortable she immediately was compared to the other two daycares. They took her in as family and have always met her where she’s at. Whether that be educationally or emotionally. We have since had another child and she loves GSA too!”

“The best, most loyal daycare around! My kids have been here for almost four years. Best teachers you could get, a great director and owners. They are my second family.”

““We chose to enroll our son at Good Shepherd Academy after meeting with the director, Eartha, and touring the school. From our very first visit, we were deeply impressed by the teachers’ knowledge, warmth, and genuine care, as well as the exceptionally small class sizes.

Looking back, enrolling him at Good Shepherd Academy has been one of the best decisions we have made sense moving to Dayton. Eartha has become like family to us. The love and support our son—and our entire family—have received extend far beyond childcare. The school is built on a strong foundation of community, faith, and love.

The academic foundation they are providing is equally remarkable. We are often complimented by complete strangers on our son’s vocabulary, manners, and even his multiplication skills. These are a direct reflection of the nurturing environment, individualized attention, and professional teaching staff at Good Shepherd Academy.

Eartha and the entire Good Shepherd Academy community have been an incredible blessing in our lives. We would choose them again and again
without hesitation.”

“My three grandchildren go here. I am always impressed with what the 2 year old is learning. The two babies are given so much love and attention. Whenever I go there, I am greeted with so much warmth and love from everyone there. Thank you GSA!”

Programs at GSA

Small Classroom Ratios.

We want kids to be well equipped to learn and be loved every single day at Good Shepherd Academy. One way in which we do this, is by restricting classroom sizes to be lower than the state mandated sizing.

Hands On Learning.

We recognize the importance of balanced growth, so we provide opportunities for mental, physical, emotional and cognitive growth through inspiring lessons that provoke creativity, curiosity, and motivation to learn and explore in creative play-based experiences.
