School In the Pines

My daughter attended School in the Pines briefly when she was 18 months old, and it was her first daycare experience. The staff was amazing—kind, patient, and very communicative, which made the transition so easy for us. We only stopped attending because we moved; otherwise, we would have gladly stayed. Overall, a wonderful experience and I highly recommend them.

Our daughter has been going here since she was 13 months old, she’s now six. We couldn’t be happier with SITP and they love care they have over the children.

My son has been attending School in the Pines since he was a infant and it has been an exceptional experience for our family! The staff are nurturing, caring, and are very responsive to communication. I couldn't be more pleased with School in the Pines!

5 stars!!!!! As a parent who has experienced two other daycare settings—Blossoms Montessori and Kids R Kids Holzworth—I can confidently say that School in the Pines is a true gem. We left those other schools for two main reasons: constant teacher turnover and overcrowded classrooms that left us feeling invisible and our children stressed out. At both places, we never saw the same faces, and our kids didn't know who to trust as the adults in their lives were always changing. That all changed when we found School in the Pines. From day one, I've been impressed by the consistency and care the teachers offer. My children have the same teachers every day, and I can tell that the teachers genuinely love and care for them. These are the teachers I look forward to chatting with, and it has been so comforting to know that my kids are being nurtured by people who truly care. What’s even better is that my children now love going to school! It’s such a relief as a parent to see them excited every morning instead of stressed or anxious. Not only that, but they’ve developed meaningful friendships with their classmates, and those friendships have extended beyond school—now they’re having playdates outside of class too! The curriculum, especially the Treetop program, has been a game-changer. It introduces learning objectives that I know would have been introduced much later, but now my children are excelling in skills like numbers, letters, sounds, and even writing their names—well before elementary school! The lessons are consistent, fun, and clearly designed to foster both educational growth and emotional well-being. I used to dread daycare drop-offs at previous schools because I felt so uncertain about the care my children were receiving. But at School in the Pines, not a single day has gone by where I’ve been stressed. The teachers go above and beyond to make the classrooms warm, welcoming, and personalized, with every student’s artwork proudly displayed. The atmosphere is like a real school, not just daycare, and it’s been such a joy to witness my children thrive in this environment. I honestly never thought I’d say this, but I now get sad thinking about them aging out of childcare and moving on to elementary school. I wish I could keep them here forever! I cannot recommend School in the Pines enough. If you’re looking for a daycare or early education program that provides exceptional care, consistency, and an enriching learning experience, look no further. This place truly feels like a second home for my children.

We used School in the Pines for before and after care for my 2 boys, as well as childcare for our youngest through pregnancy. The staff us amazing, and it felt like dropping the kids off with friends. We moved changing our school zoning, so we had to stop using them, buyt I strongly recommend this daycare! Whenever we run into Amanda, the owner, in public, she still remembers our children's ages and asks how they are doing.
