Hours of Operation

Most La Petite Academy locations operate between the hours of 6:30 am and 6:30 pm. Hours may vary, so please inquire about the specific hours of your Academy.

Childcare Programs

The health and well-being of your infant and toddler are our highest priority. Due to state regulations, strict child-to-staff ratios, our one-child-per-crib policy and other health considerations, Infant and Toddler Programs cannot be funded by part-time tuition. Therefore, La Petite Academy Infant and Toddler Programs can only accept enrollments for a full-week (M-F) schedule.

Consistency in Enrollment

La Petite Academy is committed to offering families quality programming. Our carefully planned programs and curriculum are designed with learning activities scheduled in the morning and afternoon for a full day and week of development and growth. When classroom schedules are consistent, learning objectives can be planned and delivered.

Just as important, consistency benefits children, teachers and staff by providing an environment that provides nurturing and enhances learning.

For these reasons, we ask parents to commit to maintaining schedules. In addition, the Academy has created the following policies to help us keep our commitment to quality for all of the children:

• Two-Year-Olds, Early Preschool, Preschool, Pre-kindergarten, School Age Parents can choose either a full-week schedule or an am or pm half-day schedule. However, that schedule must be locked in and cannot be changed week to week. Please see your Academy director for additional details.
• Notification of Schedule Change - Should you decide to reduce your child's schedule, La Petite Academy requires a two-week notice. After notice is given, please note that, if there are families on a full-time schedule wait-list, we will be unable to reduce your billing to less than full-time. Should that occur, you have the right to withdraw your notice and keep your child's full-time schedule. In the event that notice is not given, your weekly tuition will be charged and payment expected. If you decide to add to your child's existing schedule, La Petite Academy requires one-week notice. Once notice has been accepted, billing for the current tuition rate will continue for the week in which the notice was given. Additions will be handled on a space available basis.
• Notification of Withdrawal from Program - Should you decide to withdraw your child from his scheduled program, La Petite Academy requires a two-week notice.
