What Families Say About Us

"Riverhead Montessori was recommended to me by a few local parents and I can see why! Both my kids have benefited from the Montessori style of learning, caring and hands on teachers plus small classroom sizes. So special to see the connections they’ve made with the staff and skills they’ve helped foster. RMLC is a local gem!"
Beka Livick
Parent of Emily
"My two children have gone through Riverhead Montessori and they have both thrived in doing so. The calmness, patience and attentiveness from all the teachers is always so beautiful to see, every time I walk in the doors. I believe RMLC plays a huge role in my daughter excelling at school as a kind, empathetic, and caring human. I chose this Montessori because of the size of the amazing outdoor play area, but we have been rewarded with so much more 🥰"
Georgia Rose Rogers
Parent of Emily
"We’re having such a wonderful experience at Riverhead Montessori. The teachers are warm, attentive, and truly care for each child. The environment is calm, well set up, and has the best outdoor area (our son could spend all day in that huge sandpit 😅). It has been encouraging to see how much our boy has grown and developed since starting, and only makes me excited to see who he will be by the time he finishes."
