My son started school at La Petite in early May and talks about how much he loves to go to this school ? The ladies in the front Ms. Tecia (school Director) and Ms. O are always very polite , highly professional and truly care about every child who attends this school. Also, to mention my son loves his teachers Ms. Judy and Ms. Shandiz!!! I recommend this School to all parents!!! ?☺️?

My 3 year old son just started last month, and I'm in awe of the amount of progress I've seen from him. Naturally shy, he normally clings to my side, but with in a matter of days he was waving me out the door. Ms. Ciara and Ms. Iyanna have made a huge impact on him and are great communicators. My baby is dropped off in good spirits and he is picked up in better spirits. It puts this single mom's heart at ease. I gladly drive 40 mins out of the way daily knowing the love, care, patience, and understanding the teachers, and director (Ms. Tecia) included, have shown to not just my child but all the children. During my tour with Ms. Tecia I was able to see the happy disposition of the other children, as well as observed how they responded to their teachers. I enrolled my son that same day. Best decision. Sometimes convenience is not worth it. The drive is longer for me but I can go to work and be productive knowing my baby is in good hands.

Our daughter started at La Petite about a year ago and it has been such a wonderful experience. All the teachers and staff have been so loving and caring towards her and she has grown and learned so much. She looks forward to going everyday and we love getting to see the smile on her face in the pictures they send us. I'm very thankful for La Petite for being a fun and safe place to bring my daughter to each day.

My little girl started going to LaPetite at 4 months old (approximately 7 months now). We couldn't be happier with our decision to go to LaPetite! The teachers are so knowledgeable, friendly, and loving - and made my little girl feel at home. She has learned to socialize with other kids very well, and she was eased through the many transitions infants face seamlessly (bottle, solids, drinking water, rolling, crawling, standing). We are so impressed! We also get fun arts and crafts and theme days that the whole school participates in.Ms Stephanie and Ms Tecia at the front know their stuff and are super organized. Ms Nicole, Ms Kiyah, and Ms Mikaela in the infant room are the absolute best and we would be lost without them. It will be bittersweet when my daughter moves out of the infant room. But the other teachers know her as well and the next skills are prepared for her!A big appeal for me when deciding between daycares was the fact that LaPetite is nationally known and has incredibly high standards for their facility and teachers. In addition to this, included in your weekly tuition is diapers, wipes, formula, and food.We are so happy we are at LaPetite Leesville and encourage others to look into them as well.

My daughter went to this school when she was in pre K and now my Son is going here they have helped him develop into this little man that's ready for his next adventure in life. My son was always shy and very closed off to new people and even to some family members. He was only open to Myself, my daughter his Uncle and Grandmother and every since he has been coming here he talks to others we will be outside and he loves to just say hey to random people lol .it's so amazing seeing how this school jas helped him grow and get ready for kindergarten.

It is going to be hard to write in words how much we love this facility and the staff that works there! They have truly became like family and we were SO UPSET when we had to leave due to moving out of the area (tried to convince my husband to drive the 30 minutes, but that was a no go!) We started here when my son was about a year old, and he is now 4. Every time it was time for him to move up another class- I didn't think we could love the next teacher as much, but we always loved them as much!!!! Some honorable mentions- without getting into too much detail and writing the novel I know I could if I went on and on about how great they all are- Ms. Tecia, Ms. Kathleen, Ms. Stephanie, Ms Bianca, Ms. McDowell and Ms. VIrmeche- Thank you all SO MUCH for what you have done for my children and my family. We are truly blessed to have had you guys in our lives. The rest of the staff is JUST as amazing as well.The facility also uses an app for communication which is great... i loved getting updates and pictures throughout the day.

My children have had an absolutely wonderful experience at La Petite Academy on Leesville Road. My two younger children are in Pre-K. Because they had attended a private preschool since they were two, I was a bit concerned they would not get the academics to which they were accustomed. I need not have worried. Their teacher, Ms. Corrinne, has themes around which their work is based. For example, one theme was "weather" and they learned all about different types of weather, such as hurricanes, and drew pictures of their favorite types of weather, played with "snow," made windsocks, etc. In addition, Ms. Corrine is working with them on writing their names, which had not been done previously. I am so thrilled. More importantly, my children love their teachers and do not want to leave when I come to pick them up. Even on the weekends, they ask if they are going to school - clearly their favorite activity!My older two children are attending the summer camp at La Petite and enjoy it immensely. They absolutely love the field trips they go on, especially the special events like the 3-D magic show they saw, and enjoy going to the pool each week. In addition, they keep up with their schoolwork because part of each day is dedicated to working in special workbooks, selected by their teacher, Ms. Glenda, to make sure that they are ready for the grade into which they are about to enter. Academics and fun learning? Sign me up! The children have been exposed to so much this summer and have learned without even realizing that's what they have been doing.I must comment, too, on how fabulous the Academy's Director, Ms. Vanessa Price, is. From the moment I called her to the tour to my children's first day, Ms. Vanessa has been extraordinary. When we went on our tour, she immediately put my two younger children at ease, as well as any concerns or worries I might have had. Moreover, Ms. Vanessa knows each child, knows what is going on with him/her, and knows what is going on in their classroom. She is an extremely involved Director, one who manages to keep everything running seemlessly while still being present and caring to each teacher, parent and, most importantly, child.If you are looking for quality daycare, summer camp, or before and after school care, I highly recommend La Petite Academy on Leesville Road. Call Ms. Vanessa to set up a tour to see for yourself - you won't go wrong.
