The teachers are horrendous, ghetto, do not take care of the kids like they should. It's a disgrace. The staff are like children themselves.

My daughter would be left in a stroller when paying for early drop off cause they only have one staff member attending to all children coming into the daycare.

Moving to a new area means finding a new school which is nerve racking. We have searched high and…read morelow and finally I went on a tour at this school and liked what they had to offer compared to other schools in the area. But it wasn't until my daughter actually started to attend COA Smithtown that's when we knew we made the right decision. Management is awesome Miss Kelly and Miss Amy manages the center very well. COA have a great and friendly staff. The teachers are awesome. My daughter teacher is Miss Michelle and she absolutely great. Her method of teaching and curriculum is outstanding. My daughter has learned so much since the beginning of school. Miss Michelle is definitely preparing her class for Kindergarten with out a doubt. Just knowing your child is in a safe environment while you are at work is every parents concern, being able to drop my daughter off knowing that she is in good hands put my heart at ease. I know she is being taken well care of, she is receiving nutritions meals and snacks through out the day, learning and having fun while doing it. I would highly recommend COA to anyone in the area looking for a Daycare/ Preschool. The hours are accommodating and they do not follow the public school calendar which is also a plus for me. COA emails you an electronic report when you sign your child out of what they learned and was feed and sends you photos of them throughout the day. They also have camera access. I can go on and on about this school.

When we relocated to Long Island, the first thing we wanted to look for was a place for our son. We…read morewere worried about the transition and if he would adapt to this new environment. We found COA and from the day we met everyone they welcomed us with open arms and have taken amazing care of him and have poured so much love and knowledge into him.

Thank you to the amazing team at COA for doing what you do. We appreciate you all so much!

As a first time mom, I was very nervous about sending my baby to daycare. By day two, the Pride and…read moreJoy family had already made me feel so comfortable and reassured. Everyone is kind, caring, and welcoming. During his time in the infant classroom, he celebrated his first birthday, started crawling, learned sign language, began counting, took his first steps, brought home the cutest crafts, and reached so many other milestones. He comes home every day saying his friends and teachers names, and he is genuinely excited to go to school every morning. As a parent, that's truly all I could ever ask for!! We are so grateful for the love and care they've given him and would absolutely recommend Pride and Joy to any family!

The teachers are so kind, loving, and genuinely invested in each child. It brings me so much comfort knowing he is in such a safe and nurturing environment every day. We're incredibly grateful for the entire team at Pride and Joy.

For the most part these people are all loving and caring. This is our 3rd daycare and it has been going great so far. Always cleaned and they go as far as helping wash blankets and sheets for the kids when there is an accident. Definitely consider this place if you are looking for a daycare! You won't regret it. My only suggestion is to inquire within and take the chance like I did. I couldn't be more comfortable with any other daycare at this time.

My rating is a pretty clear statement about my family's experience using this facility. The two…read morestar rating is because "Ms. D" and "Ms. Stacey" showed genuine care for our son while he was enrolled. Our experience started in early August 2019 when my Wife returned to work after maternity. We scouted a few day care facilities prior to landing with KinderCare and though they were the most expensive of the ones we researched, we went with them because of their stellar reviews, personal recommendation, and proximity to our place of work. Our (then) four month old son started his first week with three incident reports, all in his first three days at KinderCare. All of the incident reports entailed wounds to his face; two self inflicted and one by another child. As concerned parents, we addressed this with the facility director and assistant director immediately. We were assured that we would be contacted asap should our son be hurt again while under their supervision. Though they made good (for the most part) on this assurance, the incident reports continued to flow. In addition to the numerous incident reports, the daily reports they sent to us were inaccurate and lacked detail most of the time. More recently, when I picked-up my son from KinderCare, I noticed a series of scratches around his right eye. I immediately called my wife and she said that she did not receive a call regarding an incident from the day. When she went to follow-up, she was informed (by Ms. Pat) that he had those scratches when she dropped him off in the morning. In addition it was explained (by Ms. Pat) that the staff is "unable to give him the attention he wants when they are with another kid, so we leave him in the crib crying and he flails his arms." In other words, you choose dereliction of duty. If you have read the review to here, I think you can digress that we are attentive parents. As we began to scout other options for daycare, our anxiety increased every day we dropped him off. For two working parents, it is not easy leaving your child in the care of folks you barely know; it is even more frustrating knowing that you are paying for subpar care. His last day at KinderCare (in early October) entailed another sloppy daily report, consisting of mostly vague/incomplete details. The facility wasn't sure if they forgot to feed him (for six hours) or if they gave him another child's formula? To this day it remains a question mark and a scar on two new parents and their five month old son. We are just happy that he is not there anymore.
