Safety & Security

Providing a safe and secure child care environment is our No. 1 priority. It’s as simple as that.

Whether it’s the little details like wearing booties over our shoes to prevent germs in our infant daycare rooms, or the big ones like our electronic locks system — they all add up to a safe and clean environment in which you can feel every effort is being made to keep your child safe, happy and healthy.

Each La Petite Academy has a set of safety and security procedures and standards that we strictly enforce. Some of the highlights include:

• Secure lobby and classrooms. Every entrance to a La Petite Academy is equipped with an electronic lock. All parents must know the PIN number to enter, while all visitors are greeted at the door to sign in and be assisted.
• Visitor precautions. Photo identification is required from all unfamiliar visitors. A visitor listed as an authorized person to pick up a child must still show photo identification if the school director and/or associate do not know him/her.
• Equipment safety. Some of the many equipment precautions we take include child-sized tables that are “non-tippable” and regular monitoring of equipment to ensure it is in good working order.
