My child loves it here! I can tell she has fun and enjoys spending time with her teachers and other kids in her class. I also love how much the teachers and staff care about children. It is really apparent that they want what’s best for them.

I wanted to share my overwhelmingly positive experience with La Petite Academy - Federal Way South. We recently started our 2 year old son at this daycare after a traumatic time at a previous facility, and I cannot express how grateful we are for the incredible care and support we've received here.From our first meeting with Assistant Director Itzy to the compassionate interactions with Director Ann, and teachers such as Ms. Elena, Ms. Inas, Ms. Leslie, and Ms. Yessi, every moment at this daycare has been exceptional. Leadership at this school has done a truly exceptional job fostering a positive and uplifting culture where teamwork, kindness, and loving care is the standard. The staff have gone above and beyond to ensure our son's safety and well-being during this transition, showing him the compassion, love, and kindness he needs.In just a week, we've seen amazing progress in our son's development - from learning colors to adapting quickly to the daycare routine. The Sprout About app's live video feed and regular updates have given us peace of mind and a way to stay connected throughout the day.I have been impressed by the dedication of the leadership team, who are always present in the classes, supporting both the children and the teachers. It's clear that they are deeply committed to creating a nurturing environment for everyone.Our experience at La Petite Academy - Federal Way South has been nothing short of wonderful, and I only wish we had started our son here sooner. I can't recommend this facility, its teachers, and leadership enough. We look forward to continuing this positive journey with them.

My son has been going here since he was 6 months old and now he is 3. We have nothing but positive feedback. The director and all the staff are attentive, nice and take such good care of my kiddo. I definitely recommend this location to anyone.

I walk in for tour I couldn't believe my eyes how they treat young kids there. Baby's are sleeping on the floor with no blanket on them. Very very nasty floor, they don't have enough toys .very poor hygiene. 1 babysitter for 12 kids. Whole Daycare was smells so bad.

Where do I start? This place is so incredibly mismanaged that I wonder how the children are treated. At multiple times, the director forgets to reply to your inqueries even after they take your nonrefunable registration fee. I never knew whether my kiddo was enrolled. This business is a sham. Watch out, and I would recommend taking your previous child elsewhere!!

Pros: The staffs were very friendly always. The director Nicky was very helpful and flexible in terms of changing our toddler's schedule around. They also have an app that allows you to communicate directly with your child's teacher and view some photos/videos throughout the day, though it depends on who's working that day. Some days I'd get 10 pictures and a video while some days I wouldn't get any pictures.Cons: My toddler always comes out at pick up in the afternoon with a dirty, sticky face and/or hands with maybe food from lunch or snack? There were two times when she got a pretty big bruised-up bump on her forehead and a scratch on her face that staffs weren't sure where she got them from.

my son has been attending la petite sense he was 7 months he is now 3.The teachers are very attentive and responsive too any concerns you have as a parent. Days filled with learning curriculums make his days very enjoyable. I love the system they have implemented & the app they have I appreciate so much because we know it’s hard being away from our little ones but they are able to update us with awesome pictures and activity throughout the day.

20 years ago when I had my daughter here I was really impressed but now I am unimpressed with how they treated my 3 year old Grandson. Many young workers that have no idea what they are doing and had no idea how to work with a hyper child and they kicked my Grandson out of the daycare after only 2 months because he didn't fit their mold. Appalling!!! Never will refer anyone there again!

My three kids have gone to this daycare since my youngest was born and she just turned 5. Over the course of their time here I have seen vast improvements in the environment and teachers. The director and assistant director are the best! They don’t hesitate to contact me if there are any issues or concerns, and they truly value and care about my children. I know that they are in good hands while I am at work and that peace of mind is invaluable! I would recommend La Petite to all my friends and family that are seeking quality care for their children.

My children have been attending this particular facility for 5 years now. It began with my son and daughter and now my twin boys have been there for a year. I have built great relationships with the Director and her Co-Management team. It doesn't stop there, the teachers have been a phenomenal effort in keeping communication and relationships strong with me. Nonetheless, the teachers have constantly provided me support with the transitional periods of my children's lives and we work together in making sure all runs smoothly. I never doubt the time that my children are in their care. If and or when I do have any concern, I express it immediately and it is taken care of immediately. Additionally, I have received constant support from the staff there when it comes to assisting me with my own children. Twins can be tough! :) All in all, I would highly recommend this particular location to any parent.

We have been taking our son to this school for about three months now and I cannot say enough good things about this academy. They were the only ones in our daycare search to address how it would be hard for me and to have tools like Brightwheel to help me feel connected with our kiddo. Every day the teachers send pictures and videos and answer my (sometimes numerous) questions about his day. I love the Brightwheel app and how it documents every aspect of his day, even when he reads a book! The director and support staff are awesome. I would highly recommend this daycare!

My daughter started here when she was 8 weeks old. She loved it instantly. She loved her teachers and made friends. We loved it because we got updates everytime she ate, slept, and went potty. And they have the weeks lesson plans up. I love to see what they are going to learn that week.We switched daycares when my daughter was almost 6 months old. We wanted someplace closer to our work. After one week we realized it wasn't the place for us. We contacted Nicky and she said yes come back! So we brought her back.The transition was easy. Our daughter was so happy to be back with her friends and teachers. We love everyone there, especially Ms. Toya, Ms. Stephanie, and Ms. Ana.Thank you all so much for taking such great care of my baby girl!

This is the best place for my son; Bentley who is 4 years old. His teachers are the best, they are very attentive, and makes his days very enjoyable. I love the system they have implemented with the IPads and showing parents throughout the day what their kid is doing and updating them. My son loves it here and I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a place for their kids. Lastly, their director is very friendly and is easy to talk to.
