Case Study: The Goddard School (Early Childhood Franchise) streamlines payroll and timekeeping with Paycor

How Paycor Helps Goddard Schools Focus on Serving Their Students

The Goddard School for Early Childhood Development is a top U.S. childcare franchise serving more than 65,000 students across 470 locations; the Arnold, Missouri franchise owned by Andria Barbieri employs 27 teachers and staff. The school struggled with manual timekeeping and payroll processes, frequent administrative updates from employees, and a poor experience with an alternate local provider that lacked technology and customer support.

Paycor implemented Payroll, Perform Time, Reporting and self‑service tools, plus dedicated account support, to automate clock‑in/out tracking, approve hours with one click, and transfer data seamlessly to payroll. The result: fewer timesheet errors and employee questions, several hours saved weekly for managers, secure role‑based access, custom reporting for pay and recognition, and a smoother overall payroll and HR experience.
