Both of my daughters have attended La Petite over the course of the past 6 years, the youngest has been there since she was an infant. I highly recommend, ALL the teachers know the kids by name and personality. We tried other day cares prior to finding La Petite and there is a noticeable difference in quality of care. It costs a little more but it’s worth the peace of mind, especially when handing over your 3 mo old baby (probably one of the hardest things for a mother to do).

I sent my one year old son here for almost 2 months. My son is a very picky eater and he has to be fed. I understand that the teachers cannot feed each child so I requested the teacher to give him milk at least. He didn’t drink whole milk so i requested the teachers to give him toddler Enfamil which is the only milk he drank at that time. They have no food from home policy. So they strictly denied my request. After him getting sick for couple of times in few weeks, I requested again and explained the situation but they still denied. So i decided to remove him from the daycare. I think they should consider few things for child like mine.

Our daughter just started in March and we already feel like the teachers are family. She is 5 months in the infant room and Miss Heather is great!! Being a first time mom navigating daycare is scary but Kelley, Tricia, and her teacher Heather all make it so easy. The Brightwheel app they use is amazing!! They will update you with pictures, fun activities, meals, diapers, naps, etc. Miss Amy, Miss Missy, and Miss Nora all spend time in the infant room as well and they each love these babies like they are their own. Someone told me “you know you found a great daycare when your child gets excited to see their teacher every day”. From the moment we walk in Carly is all smiles for her teachers and we are so thankful for them!

Our daughter has been attending since she was 6 months old, and we absolutely LOVE everyone here. With the use of the Cartwheel mobile app they track absolutely everything and we get tons of photos throughout the week. They are great at keeping an open line of communication so we know exactly what her day has entailed.

Ms. Katie is the best at La Petite! She cares for my son with love, the way Id hope any of my family or friends would if they were caring for him. The daily app updates are awesome and she sends pictures of him throughout the day to show me what hes up to while Im at work! Love her and La Petite Academy.

A great place to take you children for child care. You never have to worry if you child is being taken care of or not. All the teachers know my kids by name and the front staff always know what is going on. They do parent teacher conferences to let you know how you child is doing, and they use an app that lets you stay informed with pictures and notifications throughout the day. Everyone is friendly, it is clean, and I wouldnt want to take my kids anywhere else.

My daughter and son LOVE going to school at La Petitie Academy. They have lots of great activities and I cant believe how much they learn everyday. Mrs.Emily is our favorite and knows how to connect with our son Liam. But they all give a lot of personal attention to each child - which I think is so important. I couldnt be more happy with our experience!

Everyone here is so great! The directors know every single student by name and you can see they care. We love Ms. Taylor Ms. Kayleigh and Ms. Kirstie. Thank you for all that you do! Would recommend this this place to a friend.

We had a terrible experience with this daycare. Our daughter was consistently sent home for illnesses she did not have (fever, “contagious” diaper rash, hand foot and mouth) and was only allowed to return with a doctors note (costing us nearly $400.00 in copays for unnecessary sick visits) Her pediatrician actually laughed at the daycare for sending her home when we came in for the second time due to yet another “contagious” diaper rash she didn’t have. In all reality, our daughter was there for 8-9 hours a day and on some days was changed only 2-3 times which caused said diaper rashes. She was also bitten to the point of bruising by an unknown child. There was no accident report provided and none of the classroom teachers were even aware she had been bitten. The only positive thing I have to say about La Petite is that Ms. Tricia is truly amazing.After nearly 6 months at La Petite we moved our daughter to The Learning Experience and have never been happier. Our daughter adores her classroom teacher, is finally excited to go to school, and is diaper rash free due to being changed 5-6 times a day. I would recommend The Learning Experience to anyone with a 1-2 year old as their care has been far superior to that of La Petite.

The director was unfriendly. Also found my daughter playing on a tablet 3 different times through the week when I picked her up. The 30$ charge if you do not pay on a Monday was a little frustrating. I am paid on Fridays and unfortunately was not able to pay a week ahead. I wish the company could work with you better. I would not recommend this school with the current director.

Overall we LOVE La P. Weve been there with our 6yr old since it opened and she was 18months old and our 19month old has been there since she was 4months. The teachers and staff are on the whole, excellent (there are a very few occassional exceptions.) I like the structure & the facilities. Our daughter was so well prepared for KG by the time she left La P - she learned all the ABCs and counting, writing basics plus so much more. She has made many good friends there (as have I, her mum!) We have occasional administrative challenges with payments and discounts but thats less important than our childs care. We are always sad when the teachers leave but the turnover rate is not crazy. We have some long time favorite teachers who even offer to babysit. One such teacher is looking after our daughter for a wk in March for us while we are out of town! The opening hours are very good and the rates competitive. We were very pleased with the infant care we got for our youngest daughter most recently.

Our daughter loves this place. She has been going there since she was 1 and a half and she is now 4 and a half. She has developed so much and is far further along than other children in the neighborhood who either dont go to daycare or dont go to a daycare as structured as LaP. Our second daughter is due in June and she will be going to LaP with her big sister when she is 4 months old. Highly recommended.
