I truly feel that everyone who is in need of the most upcoming,caring,affordable and trustworthy daycare and are in the Riverhead area should absolutely consider Pine Tree. I moved to the Riverhead area about a year ago and after a while I needed two days of daycare service for my son who was about a year and half and was extremely speech delayed. Before going for my first appointment to see the daycare facility and to meet the owner and staff I did my research and read reviews. I had come across the "filtered" review that is beneath mine from June of last year. I will admit I was concerned after reading the review and not to mention there was only one other review that I had found. I decided to make my own decision and see for myself. Mrs. Carr, who is the owner took a half an hour out of her own time to speak with me the first time I had called to go over any concerns that I had as well as she had explained everything. By the end of the phone call that review that claimed she was "money hungry" just didnt seem realistic. When i visited the daycare it felt like home. My son immediately began to play and really grew to like one of the teachers, Ms. Amber (who is absolutely amazing with the kids and is such a pleasure to talk to). I decided to enroll my son two days a week. My son is extremely attached to me and I knew there would have been a difficult transition process. Believe it or not there wasn't. My son transitioned in 3 weeks and only going 2 days. Unfortunately due to financial issues that came forward I had to take my son out after a month. I was so upset because I found a place that I trusted with my son and that he truly enjoyed. The staff is so warming and Ryan Carr the owner, works with you with anything. Even with my financial issues, Ryan and Michelle Carr both worked with me to where my son could still go for half days and such. I dont see any other day care facility doing that. Thats when I looked back at that review that stated they were so "money hungry" and I laughed to myself. There is no way that it could be true. Pine tree was basically watching my son for nothing and he was getting the best treatment. He even started to say his first few words within that month of attending. Now they improving their facility and extending their services. A new playground for the kids, music throughout the place, inside and out. As well as getting new computers and reading programs. Im so upset that i cannot send my son there anymore. I am currently in the process of moving out of state and i am praying that I can find a daycare place like Pine Tree.. I know its difficult for parents to let go of their children without worrying. Please if daycare is what you need check them out, go for a tour and really get a feel for yourself. I know that you will not be disappointed. read more
