I’m Taylor Pope, the on-site owner of The Goddard School at The Wharf in Washington, DC—and a proud third-generation Goddard franchisee. Born and raised in Hampton Roads, VA, my family also runs a Goddard School in Virginia Beach. I met my wife, Ashley, at Marymount University, where I earned my Business degree. We live in Alexandria with our playful pups, Penelope and Nelson, and our two daughters, Lyla and Nora, who both attend the school—giving me the chance to provide families with the same high expectations I have for quality childcare. We have two great locations at The Wharf welcoming little ones as young as 6 weeks, featuring an indoor playground and a private outdoor space perfect for play and learning. As a big Capitals fan, I’m excited to bring quality childcare to Southwest DC. Come join the Goddard @ The Wharf family—let’s grow together!
Assistant Director of Education at the 7th Street location - Toddlers (Two's) and Preschool (3-5)
Hi, I'm Nita. I am the Executive Director of Operations over our 7th Street and Maine Avenue locations in SW DC. I have worked with children ages 0-5 years old for over 20 years in various capacities. My degree is in Interdisciplinary Studies with a concentration in Early Childhood from Kaplan University. I have a passion for children and creating an amazing learning experience for them. I enjoy working with children because they teach me to slow down and enjoy the little things. You will find me in the classrooms often building with blocks, drawing pictures, dancing or reading books. I am a native Washingtonian. I have a daughter who is in college studying veterinary medicine. My favorite children's book is "Oh The Places You'll Go" by Dr. Seuss.
