I love La Petite! When I drop my son, I have no doubt he will be taken care of and he will enjoy his time there. He is always so excited to tell me about art time and singing songs. The staff is very respectful and professional while maintaining a family friendly environment. They do an excellent job at recording and keeping me updated on the Brightwheel app and the Watch Me Grow live stream. My mind is at ease knowing my son is safe and happy while I am working as should any other parents be if they were to enroll their child/children here!

Both of my sons attend this school, and they both love it. The whole staff is so caring, and theyre always going above and beyond for all of the kids. Ive been a part of the school for almost 3 years now, and we couldnt be happier! My youngest learns so much, and always has a great time; my oldest, is being accommodated for and is able to do his remote learning with no trouble, and all the help if he needs it.

This has been our childcare for close to ten years now with each of our three children attending. The staff treat us like family and it is so comforting to know that my children are being well cared for while we are at work. Our now toddler is the only one attending as the older two are now school age. Our toddler truly gets excited to see his teacher and the other staff members. The love and compassion that the teachers starting from the infant room on up is comforting because ultimately your trusting them with your most precious babies. I love that they have an app that sends us pictures throughout the day that makes us feel still connected with him when he is there. I highly recommend LaPetite to anyone looking for a great place for childcare.

I couldn’t say enough great things about La Petite! My oldest daughter started here when she was only 2 years old and I then enrolled my second daughter after she was born. There was no shortage of care or love for both my children! I loved that the Staff incorporated outside activities and learning while there. La Petite is more than just a daycare, it was somewhere I felt safe bringing my children every day, and somewhere I truly felt they were learning and growing in all aspects. The staff is wonderful, and they truly take time to invest in the children and the parents. I loved getting pictures and taking home projects they did during the day. Summer camps and additional activities were so beneficial! It was so hard to say goodbye when my oldest went onto kindergarten and we eventually moved. Christine and Shannon were always so easy to work with and truly felt more like family than anything. Would send my kids back in a heartbeat!

The staff at this location are some of the most caring and loving people I know. My kids attended here for 8 years, and I couldn’t have ask for any more amazing teachers. From infant to school age they created a loving secure environment where learning was fun and crafts were abundant. When my son started school we switch to another big name center closer to us after a couple months of hell there we called Shannon and she opened spots for us right away to come back to La Petite. Even though our kids aged out we still consider Shannon, Christine and many of the teachers family.

Both my son Ren (5) and my daughter Maya (8) have been at La Petite since they were infants. Today effectively ends their time there, as this La Petite no longer accepts school age kids. We will really miss the teachers, kids, and parents we’ve met throughout the years.We’ve had such a great experience there. The kids have made some really good friends. The teachers took such good care of the kids. They were treated quite lovingly. We got to know some really great parents along the way too. You end up going to a lot of birthday parties together. :)We can completely recommend this La Petite as a happy place for kids. Good friends, fun activities, lots of learning, and kind people.Thank you, La Petite. We’re really going to miss you!

I would not recommend this daycare even to my enemies. If you want to have lots of stress and headache everyday then go ahead and enroll your child at La petite. The staff and the teachers are extremely unprofessional. Starting with Christine Harwood who has anger issues and attitude problems. And the so called teacher Tammie Benoit always has excuses to her neglect and failure to meet her basic job standards as a preschool teacher. Aside from my toddler telling me about her use of bad words in class, I have noticed zero advancement when it comes to my son’s behavioral and educational development. Don’t waste your time and money. This daycare is a disaster and bad from every level.

After moving halfway across the country the daycare I had originally lined up gave our spot away and I was left scrambling to find care for my 2 year old. La Petite had a spot available and showed excellent attention to detail during our tour and made sure I felt comfortable moving forward. My daughter has been there for six months now and theyve been fantastic from day one. You can tell the staff really cares about what they do and my daughter has been flourishing here even with all of the changes that come with a cross country move. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking!

My son has been at this school since he was 3 months old and is currently 15 months old. I love this daycare. Not only are the staff very friendly and professional, the school offers a curriculum designed for the kids as they learn and grow. As a teacher, this is really important to me. My son is safe, happy and learning everyday.The teachers keep you up to date on what your child does during the day through an app. I know when my kid eats, sleeps, plays, partakes in learning activities and so in. They send photos, videos and communicate through personal messages. My son is so obviously loved at his school.Also, for anyone with my commute North, this school is easily accessible off of I5 and allows me to get onto 18, 167, 99 or back on 5 depending on the traffic.Go in and meet the staff, see the classrooms and talk to parents before making daycare decisions.

My daughter has attended this daycare for over a year now. She loves going. She loves her teachers. I like how the teachers are patient with the kids. My daughter doesnt do well with changes and I have seen the teachers slowly ease my daughter through each class as she gets older. I really appreciate that. I also like that they meet with me and let me know how she is doing and what her strong points are as well as things she is struggling with. This daycare is great.

My two boys have been coming here for almost a year and I must say I love this team. My boys learn so much and absolutely adore their teachers. I would 100% recommend this daycare to anyone looking. I get anxiety starting new daycares and this was the best decision ever.

My child has been attending La Petite Academy for almost 4 years. From the day she started, we were treated like family. The teachers clearly love their students, and love what they do. The facility is clean, and you can really see the learning that takes place there. We love La Petite!

My 1 and a half year old goes here and she loves it. She is always excited to go every morning and her teachers are always welcoming and friendly. They also send lots of pictures of her on the app and I love being able to see that she is happy all day.

I enrolled my 7yo daughter here for their summer camp. They had a field trip and a in-house vendor that came in every week. Her favorite field trip was when they went skating and when the Disney princess Belle came. She very much liked her teachers and everyone in the office is friendly and helpful.

My children have attended this Academy for 5 years. My 5 and 3 year olds have been there since they were 6 weeks old. Since the infant room we have felt like the teachers and staff are family. They have an app they communicate with us hourly that is great. We get photos, videos and updates on how are kids are doing through out the day. Our 5 year old starts kindergarten the fall and she is ready! Her Pre K teachers were very patient and taught her so much. We are very thankful for the great care we have received over the years. If we ever had a concern the Director and her management team have dealt with any concern (very few) that we ever had. We highly recommend this pre school!

Both my son and my daughter have been attending La Pettite for almost 3 years. All the teachers are very nice. There was a kid in my sons class that bit my son on his hand and leg, Im not sure if he was also biting others but La Pettite quickly took care of the issue by un-enrolling the child from the academy. It was unfortunate for that kids parents but a relief for my as a mother and for my son as well. Im very happy and most importantly thankful for the academys fast results in the matter.
