There are so many good things to tell about this place. My kid has been here for a year and she loves it. Everyone cares for her and she greets all teachers and staff by their name. I think this shows how much they are connected with her. I appreciate that they teach age appropriate subjects in a fun environment without relying on kids using screens like tablets. Also, communication through the app with the details of her day and access to cameras is very reassuring to me. Thank you La Petite Academy of Fenton!

If you want a daycare that truly cares about your kids, stay away from this place. They do not follow proper licensing procedures or their own policies. Jill somewhat cares about the kids. But Rae is the most horrible, heartless person I have met in my entire life. Management, the PreK teacher, and the preschool teacher have absolutely no clue on how to handle children that are having a hard time and their solution is to send kids home or kick them out instead of helping that child. This place is an absolute joke. They also have easily accessible locks on the exterior playground gate that leads to the parking lot and blame children for being able to open the gate.

The directors and staff at La Petite Academy of Fenton are amazing! They love and care for our babies so well. They guide us through curriculum and both of our children are thriving. They take safety, cleanliness, and health seriously. They are great communicators. They plan fun, interactive things for holidays that have created great memories for our family! We are so thankful for our La Petite family and we highly recommend this location to anyone looking for child care.

Our child has attended school here since 5 months old, and from the start the staff has made us feel very comfortable and confident in their care. He looks forward to seeing his teachers and friends every day and he's learning so much.

First week and they are on it. They truly love and understand children. My 3 year old is brilliant but he has challenges socializing and it's created problems at KinderCare. Within the first week they got my little boy shining his true colors and brought back his confidence. Love them so much! Ms Emma you are a rockstar and Ms Heather thank you for all you do!

My children have been at La Petite Fenton for several weeks while our full-time sitter was on maternity leave. My experience has been nothing short of amazing. All of the staff members are extremely nice, very professional, and take great care of my children. They use an app that allows you to receive updates on your children throughout the day, photos of the activities they do, and they even have a live camera so you can check in on them if you'd like. I've never felt the need to constantly watch the cameras, but it is nice to be able to look in when I'm missing them at work. Our sitter is back from leave today, so it's a bittersweet goodbye. If we're ever in need of care again, La Petite of Fenton is the first place we'll go. Highly recommend!!

DO NOT WORK THERE unless you want to be treated the wrong way! They steal your stuff, and the assistant director makes lesson plans out of you that tell you to go away, which you do not have access to the passwords, and she makes false state reports on you.

"Good quality/value" feels like an understatement when it comes to the place that is helping you raise your family. We started at La Petite earlier this year after our first daycare closed unexpectedly with less than a months notice. The price is slightly more than we were paying previously, but the level of care is more than worth it. The access and oversight given to parents on a daily basis is unmatched in my opinion, and I feel genuinely close to my child throughout the day. The Director and Assistant Director have also taken every concern I have about being away from my child with the utmost sincerity, and keep me more informed than I ever expected to be. I can see that my child is safe, genuinely happy, and loved! I am so grateful we ended up here.

My 5 year old son loves it here. He goes 3 days a week and always ask if it's a school day when he wakes up! He loves his teacher and the things they learn. His old daycare closed due to covid and never re opened. This was a great find when we were in need! Theres cameras in the rooms and a great app that sends updates/photos/videos throughout the day

We have gone to various childcare providers in the Fenton area, and Lapetite is by far the cleanest, happiest, most high quality childcare that we have experienced in Fenton. One of our children has asthma and needed a space that took health and cleanliness seriously, and this was the only place we found in the area that truly practiced high quality cleanliness standards. Our youngest child is now in the pre-K program and is more than ready for kindergarten; her skills are beyond with pre-K usually expects, all because of the curriculum at La petite. The teachers are friendly and wonderful and they work together as a team. They also have a good social emotional focus as well. We will be sending our 3rd/4th grader to the summer program this summer coming up because we are so impressed.

My daughter has been going to LA Petite Academy since she was an infant and we couldn't be more happy to be here! The teachers are very personable and polite. I can see my daughter developing new skills everyday! The families are also very polite to each other, which is a Bonus! The Director is the Best! She is always in high spirits, she keeps up with all of the families, and she will always stop what she is doing to answer or talk to you about any problems or concerns. I would highly recommend La Petite Academy for anyone looking for a Great place to take their kiddos! :)

Our family loves La Petite Academy in Fenton. Our son has loved both teachers he has had the past 2 years, Ms. Katelyn, and Ms. Donna. My wife and I love the app "PresiousStatus" that they use to keep us up to date daily on what he's eating, pictures of special activities, and just his normal daily schedule. I have always felt very secure leaving him with the staff. Cannot say enough nice things about La Petite!

I cannot say enough great things about this location of La Petite! Everyone is friendly to me each time I walk in the door, they love my son who is a wild toddler boy :), they work with me on my ever-changing schedule, they do countless activities indoor and outdoor that have helped my son's gross and fine motor skills and they always keep me informed of every detail of his days! They make a difficult task, a mom leaving her baby, an easy one-day in and day out!!!

I can't add a new review, so I am editing my original review from almost 3 years ago. My daughter still attends LPA, and now my almost 8 month old son does, too. Today is their last day there, and we are all heartbroken. We moved to St. Peters over a month ago, and the drive has been treacherous. I know I am going to cry when I pick my kids up tonight! I have been so anxious at the thought of bringing them anywhere else. All of the teachers are so amazing - they are the only childcare I have seen that really treats your kids like family instead of a paycheck. I am going to miss the awesome atmosphere, the app has me COMPLETELY spoiled - knowing what is going on with them all day is amazing - even the other children and their parents. But, I know that I always have a great place to go back to if I ever need it! Thank you to Lejna, Terry, Beckie, Margaret, Ashley, Donna, Katelyn, Danielle, Megan, Nikki, Nicki, and all of the other teachers there! We will really miss you!Our 2 year old started at La Petite just 3 months ago, and we love it! Our previous daycare provider was not good at all, so it was very refreshing to walk in the door and see how happy everyone here is. Mary, the director, is a wonderful person, always cheerful, knows all of the children by name, who they are friends with, and other little mannerisms. Our daughter is always happy when I drop her off, and happy and stimulated when we pick her up. We are very pleased with our decision to move to this daycare!

Dropping your kids off at a facility everyday, that you're confident in and happy with is an amazing feeling. We've had a fair share of day cares that needed help. We have two kids here, and couldn't be happier. The staff from the Teachers, Asst Director, and Director, are great people! =)
