We've been with La Petite for 7 years between both of my kids attending. Hands down the best facility to bring your kids. From Susie the director, to the teachers. They all do an incredible job each and everyday. The connection and passion they have taking care and teaching each child. I 10/10 recommend this facility. Thank you Susie and staff for all of your dedication and love to my kids.

Both of my children have been attending LPA since 2018. We chose them because they have great security measures before entering the site and their professionalism. My children have thrived from 2 years old up until now and they enjoy attending after the school program. The curriculum is well thought out, they promote independence and seem to genuinely care about the kids. Anytime I had any concerns, they were immediately addressed. All the staff were amazing during the pandemic and created normalcy for our kids. I highly recommend this location for anyone looking for a safe and fun environment for your child. Thank you to each of the staff for taking care of my girls.

I did a tour in this school for my child, let me start off by saying the school smells, floors are disgusting and the children sinks are extremely mucky. I noticed some kids with mucus , which is very concerning. I don't think the school keeps up with hygiene.

We just joined La Petite Academy in January and are SO happy we switched to this daycare! Our son is 1 1/2 yrs old and we were so nervous to switch daycares but we are beyond grateful we found La Petite. Our previous daycare is all we knew since my son was 5 months old so we didn't know anything different. The difference here is that this daycare cares about their kids and treat them like their own. They have are extremely organized and have a wonderful schedule of activities. My son has learned so much since attending La Petite. He comes home talking and doing new things everyday.I absolutely love that they have the messaging app to send pictures and videos throughout the day. The teachers communicate and text on the app so I always am in the loop. I also LOVE the live streaming video app that I can watch my son anytime during the day. However, I don't feel like I need to because I know he is in excellent hands. The center itself is beautiful and extremely well kept. There is so much space for the kids to play and the outdoor playground is awesome. They do lots of activities and even have picture day for the toddlers. If you are looking for a great daycare I would highly recommend! The owner Susie is very hands on and incredibly kind. The manager Kristen is also so caring and involved- you can tell they really love their job and take pride in running a great show. All the teachers are incredible! Cassia and Anna are so sweet with our Mason. I feel lucky we found our little boy a great school. Thank you!!

We've had our kids with La Petite for over 4 years and cannot express enough the appreciation we have for them. Especially with the last 2 years being so difficult for everyone. We've had some issues along the way with listening and biting with our son and they have always come up with a game plan with the teachers and director to make sure my son thrived and deterred from those habits. Susie and Renee have always done an amazing job to learn how to communicate with us and what works for our family. If we weren't moving our daughter would be finishing her time there like our son. It's hard to trust people with your kids and they have really gone above and beyond to make sure we know they are safe, healthy, learning, thriving, and loved. We're really going to miss every since teacher there that has made an impact on our kids lives while being there.

5 years and 2 kids! We enjoyed enrolling our children at LPA. My wife is a former preschool teacher so she was very picky about school selection. We checked a few other schools but had issues with the curriculum, price or cleanliness. None of those issues existed at LPA.We enjoyed the staff and instructors, approved of the curriculum, were quickly able to adjust to the COVID protocols and the price was competitive. Although we won't be sending any more children to LPA we will recommend it to others.

I had been looking for a preschool for my daughter and I filled out a few contact forms and I'm telling you what not a SINGLE other school had taken to harassment the way this school has. Sincerely they called four times yesterday like I have a job. So when I finally pick up I'm OK I'm at work I will totally give you a call back she's like don't worry about it I'll call you back in an hour, maaam I believe you are confused. And that's just be the second 24 hours the first day was actually hell. like I am gonna assume you either don't have enough work to do on site because you're probably starving for children or your neglecting the children doing office work.

Our family started at La Petite 5 years ago when my oldest was 2. Originally we started there for practical reasons: super close to home, flexible hours/days, reasonable prices, good vacation-time policy, and meals included. Over the years, we have come to realize how unique they are in the outstanding care they provide, the great communication, and excellent balance of "academic" content and play time. My son stayed there until he "graduated" and moved on to kindergarten and then my daughter started when she turned 2 (they do have care for younger ones too, we just prefer to keep them home until 2). Shortly after she started, COVID hit and we weren't sure what would happen since a lot of preschools shut down. Fortunately, La Petite stayed open (I am a health care worker and my husband works in education, so we still needed the childcare) and made changes along the way to make sure they were following the most up to date guidelines on safety. We have felt completely comfortable continuing to send our daughter there. We know that they are taking great precautions to keep everyone healthy while still maintaining a sense of normalcy for the kids. When baby number 3 is old enough, he will be joining his sister there too!

A school that cares more about the appearance than with the child! I do not recommend it especially for babies!

This is what we sent in to the Director (Susie) and also to their corporate headquarters.Ms. Susie,We had our final pick up at La Petite on Friday and it was just as bittersweet as I had anticipated. La Petite has been a part of our family for the last seven years. It has been a key part of the village that has helped us raise our children. It has been a comfortable home away from home for them.I noticed right away, when our oldest had just started, that there are no strangers at La Petite. Teachers from other classrooms made the effort to learn his name and say hello to him. Not only did you and the staff earn the trust of our children but also ours as well. Because we know that you run a tight ship, we have been able to drop our kids off each morning and turn our focus to our careers. We have never wondered or worried if our children were being treated with kindness and dignity-we knew they were, because that is simply the standard of care for all children at your center.Thank you for all of the years of consistent, wonderful care. Our children are truly better off for having spent so much of this formative time with the teachers and staff at La Petite. We will miss you all so much!Sincerely,James and Chrissie Ripa

We have been a La Petite family for nearly 13 years! Our eldest daughter started there when she was one. Both she and our second daughter went through their Kindergarten program and the School-Age program. They were both exceptionally well prepared for public elementary school both socailly and academically. As the wife of an active duty Marine, I have always been especially thankful that the staff members at La Petite feel more like members of an extended family than child care providers. Our children have flourished while attending La Petite. We are thankful to have found such excellent care for our children. Some of their fondest memories are of the fun and enriching experiences they had at La Petite.

I fell in love with this school the first time I went for a tour. We had viewed several other places, including a few Montessori schools for our daughter. We are very big on security, structure/education, and personal attention to our daughters needs. She previously had been with a nanny and I was very reluctant to enroll her in any daycare/pre-school. The three we looked out didn't even come close to La Petite. One didn't even acknowledge my daughter, but began with the list of fees and payment options. The La Petite Early Pre-School program (for 3 year olds) has a classroom like environment and they monitor your childs development with progress reports sent out every 9 weeks. Our daughter's progress in the past year has been incredible. She started out scribbling and by the end of the year could write her name and many other letters of the alphabet. Her verbal skills and fine motor skills skyrocketted. I highly recommend Ms. Sandra for a teacher....her observation and attentiveness with the kids is unparalleled! IF YOU ARE HESITANT ABOUT PUTTING YOUR CHILD IN A SCHOOL OR DAYCARE, REST ASSURED, THIS IS MILES ABOVE THE REST!
