Under new management and the new director is great. She cares about the kids and the school. She is doing a overhaul of the school and it looks like a real learning facility. The teachers are great and love the children.

As a first mom I am very particular. They have been patient and accommodating to my every request. I feel like my little one is safe and happy at La Petite. I like their brightwheel app for daily updates as well. I would recommend!

Not impressed. They definitely treat non custodial parents as 2nd class citizens.

I would never recommend to anyone to take their children here. It is dirty. It is loud. It is chaotic. My poor 18 month old was so sad to be dropped off here and could not wait to leave. She was constantly sick because its unclean. The teachers rotate continuously. We were there a month and I didnt even learn a single teachers name because it was always someone new.This was a terrible experience. I feel so ashamed that I ever took my little one here.If you care about your childrens well being and emotional happiness, do not take them here.

We have loved having our son at La Petite Academy! He has attended the school for almost 4 years and we love the teachers and directors. Any issues we’ve ever had the director has always dealt with quickly and kindly. My son wakes up every morning excited to go to school. I hate to see so many negatives reviews but have to remember that most people only write down the bad things that happen and never post the good. There’s seriously some amazing teachers at this school that any child would be lucky to have! We love Mrs. Tammy, Mrs. Emily, Mrs. Hailey, Mrs. Janice, Mrs. Susie and Mrs. Mollie.

A teacher here tested positive for covid and the facility has done nothing to inform parents. They do not care about the kids.. only making money.

The Director Here Is Very Unprofessional

I had to pull my son out of this school. We only made it two months. I was sent home with someone elses breast milk on a couple occasions so it seriously made me question what my son was being fed each day. Also, I would pick him up at different times of the day and just about every single time the ratios were way too high! They never follow code! I am not at all a confrontational person so I always gave them them the benefit of the doubt. After numerous issues I decided to speak with management. When confronted with all of this they just made excuses and tried to cover everything up. Unfortunately I believe there are good teachers at this facility just working for poor management and supervision. Our son has now been at Just Like Home Childcare for almost three years and we could not be happier. Our 5 week old daughter will start attending JLH in a couple months.

Molly is so sweet and personable makes you feel like family. Love all the workers and the atmosphere!

Unfortunately I ignored friends & reviews but DO NOT GO HERE.It started with my son (who was then 3) being talked to for bringing a water gun to school for show and tell. I found out when I picked him up & it was locked in a closet. He proceeded to tell me how he isnt allowed to bring it to school because its bad. They then went to make an addition to the monthly calendar on the day of Show & Tell to put NO TOY GUNS. I personally thought this was a bit tacky seeing as it was really an easy conversation to have with the parent (whether that be myself or others). Multiples times my son had other kids clothes and vice versa, but that was honestly the least of my concerns. I told them he is smart and would need to be challenged & they told me we could look at moving him up early which never happened because he wasnt 4. They were learning shapes, colors, letter recognition.. basic things which he had long known. I asked they challenge him with SOMETHING new (which never happened). He hadnt napped since he was 2, but they still never did anything to entertain him in other ways. He finally moved to the older class and things were better. I did like his teacher, but the management needs some work (which the ONE positive thing I will say is the assistant director is now moving to Bentonville). There were several occasions Whitney would say insanely rude things and back track the moment I questioned her comments. For always used the most negative words: issues, trouble, problems... She even went as far once to question me if he was in counseling. We DID NOT have a relationship to warrant that. Fun times!To make things better, out of nowhere my son started getting 3+ incident reports a day. When I asked about the details of the situation, no one had an answer. These are basic questions such as What happened leading up to this?. Some examples of reports: tossing his socks/shoes during nap time, climbing into the sandbox and dumping sand on his head, climbing on things outside, calling someone a poopy head ... Again, maybe Im more laid back than some parents, but it sounds like typical 4 year old boy things to me! His teachers would apologize to me every time I would pick him up and say they were sorry and didnt think these were big things or write up worthy but that management was making them.The final straw came about 2 weeks after the initial write ups started. My son started getting written up for yelling, walking out of the classroom, hitting and throwing things. He may do a lot of things that annoy some people because of his energy level, but yelling out of anger or hurting someone is NOT like my son AT ALL. Im unsure exactly where to pin point the issue because his classroom teacher watched him at my home and agreed with me that it was completely out of character for him. My very intuitive guess is management, which unfortunately I cant prove because I cant sit in the school all day to supervise. They then began to ask ME what to do to correct it. I explained to them that he doesnt act out at home like this so its not an issue I ever have to deal with, but if there are times that call for it we do time out (which they dont do). I put the ball back in their court and asked for some sort of direction since this is supposed to be their area of expertise (theres a reason I do not work in childcare), but nothing was ever given. It just escalated to more write ups and eventually calling me at work all the time and even making me pick him up. It was pretty obvious they wanted to wash their hands of him, but I still am bewildered at why or how it got to that point. Ill be very transparent, I am not managements biggest fan and unfortunately I think they took that out on my son.He has been out of this school less than 2 weeks and is already back to his happy, NORMAL self and is loving his new school. Do not go here. Its a huge waste of time and money. The teachers do not have the training or support that they need, and management has very little clue on how to operate.

Terrible management!! My child was miserable here.. The manager gets the teachers to lie to parents.. just look at their constant hiring on indeed and youll understand this place is terrible

I would not recommend this school to anyone. Last year i almost pulled my child out because i witnessed my child getting bullied and her teacher didnt say a word. But after moving to a new class my daughter loved it ms amanda was the only teacher i liked.I drop my child off at different times of the day and ive heard teachers snapping some alarming things to the children. My child has said that if she doesnt take a nap or if she isnt quiet enough she has to lay on the cold ground.Recently ive had many calls of my child throwing tantrums and i have not witnessed a tantrum since she was three. Today i got a phone call saying my child slapped her teacher across the face but when i got there and was noticeably angry she changed the story. I dont trust this school and the fact they cant seem to keep staff is also a red flag to me.

The teachers in the twos room are neglectful and they do not have a system to prevent bullying

Terrible management! Never trust! This is not the right decision for you!!

Terrible waste of money looking for somewhere else
