Review №1

Dont take your kids here. There was a situation where the director (Brianna) called me on speaker phone with my ex-wife and my KIDS PRESENT to accuse me of lying. Totally unprofessional and immature, I cannot believe the higher-ups put this girl in charge of a daycare facility. Reading other reviews Im not alone in people who have had bad experiences with her.

First I am going to start with something that shouldnt even be an issue, the director. She was extremely unfriendly. I was rarely greeted (let alone with a smile) when I walked into the lobby. There were numerous times she didnt even lift her head up from whatever she was working on to say hi. Pretty rude and not to mention a lack of security! Thats not being diligent at all. A key pad code is great and all, but an observant face is even better!Secondly, the staff is ever revolving. On any given day there could be 2-4 different staff workers in the room when I dropped off then when I picked up my child. How do you develop a sense of safety when there is rarely the same person watching you? Its a bummer to think that these children dont have a consistent and familiar face to go to all day. The high turn around is an internal issue not a typical day care issue. Ive been to day care centers with employee who have worked there for years.Lastly, and the major reason I am writing this review is because its been 3 weeks since I withdrew my child from the center and I STILL havent received a refund for the week I prepaid. I havent even received a SINGLE call from them. I had to call them every time to figure out if they were going to do what they said they would do. Give me a refund. Dont you think 3 weeks is a long time to wonder where your money is? Its hundreds of dollars of your hard earned money they essentially dont give a crap if you ever see it or not. I realize a timely refund may not be the sole issue from this location and more of a corporate problem, but a little bit of communication from the director with a status update would be nice. Or am I expecting too much?On a positive note, Jennifer, the Assistant Director, was awesome. She really shows you that she enjoys her job. She is great to have as the first face you see when you enter the lobby. There were a few other staff workers who I liked, but I couldnt remember their names. They keep the classrooms clean and organized and always have an interactive activity going on when I entered the room. Aside from the negative attitude I got from the director and the not getting an answer about my refund, its a decent place...

Horrible place my 3 month old was injured and the teacher wasnt apologic or sympathetic! She left my daughter unattended on an activity mat on the floor while she changed a childs diaper. Thats when another child was able to scratch her in the face in 2 different places! The incident report did indicate blood was exposed however, the teacher only wiped the area with a wet cloth? I reported my concern with the director about the abilities of the teacher expressed concern that proper protocol wasnt followed. After investigation I was told the concerns are a training opportunity. I disagree because you cant train someone to have emotions and common sense either they have it or they dont. Also not following protocol when injuries occur should be grounds for termination!!

Amy and Kathy are always very kind and allow me to talk with my daughter whenever I call to chat with her. They go out of their way to bring her to the phone so that I can enjoy some special time with her throughout our day.Thank you SO much, Amy and Kathy!! :)

I love the infant teachers(BARB)!! And Ms Mona shes great!!!The front lady in the morning is very rude. My older kids say they yell them all day in school age and the biggest issue is the inconsistency in teachers.

Clean friendly and active with the kids. I have a child in the infant room and he is all smiles when I drop him off.

We began taking Olliver to this location about 6 months ago. He loves it! He is happy, interactive and learning all kinds of wonderful things. He seemed depressed at the previous day care (not a La Petite) he was going to, as did all the other children there. La Petite is clean, happy and the teachers are so caring and loving. Ollivers mama was a Petie when she was young too and were so happy to have a 2nd generation back at La Petite!Thank you all for going the extra mile for the children!Holly, Natalie and Olliver
