Welcome to Our School

Welcome to La Petite Academy on Anaheim Avenue NE in Albuquerque, NM! Our daycare and preschool is home to an experienced team of teachers dedicated to helping children feel secure, supported, and excited to learn. Several of our staff members have been part of our school community for more than 20 years, bringing consistency and experience to the families we serve.

From a baby’s first experiences in Infant Care to the growing independence of Toddlers, Twos, Early Preschool, Preschool, and Pre-K, our programs provide hands-on learning opportunities that encourage children to explore, build new skills, and gain confidence. We also offer Before and After School Care and Summer Camp for school-age children.

Our teachers participate in monthly training focused on early childhood development, health, and safety, and maintain current First Aid and CPR certifications. Our school also features secure keypad entry, onsite management, and photo ID verification for child pickup. For added convenience, diapers and wipes are included in tuition for children who need them.

Families can stay connected throughout the day with SproutAbout, our exclusive family communication app featuring live streaming classroom video and real-time updates about your child’s day.

We also provide transportation from select Albuquerque elementary schools, including Dennis Chavez, Altura Prep, E.G. Ross, and North Star.

Come meet our experienced teachers and explore our classrooms. Schedule your tour today!

Several years ago, our first child attended this facility and the care was excellent. Now that our second child is there, I see that it has maintained that level of excellence in all areas and they have made great improvements(more staff, brightwheel app to communicate, and more playground equipment.) Our family is very pleased with the overall care and education our children have received at this

Each day at La Petite Academy is filled with opportunities for your child to learn, play, explore, and grow. Children explore learning centers, participate in small- and large-group activities, spend time outdoors, and enjoy plenty of opportunities for choice and play. Meals, snacks, and rest are also built into the day, creating a familiar routine that helps children feel comfortable while keeping each day fun and engaging. Daily activities are designed with your child’s age and developmental stage in mind.

Our teachers regularly observe your child’s development and use those insights to plan learning experiences that support their individual needs and growth. Each child has an individual portfolio that grows with them as they move from one age group to the next, capturing their learning, milestones, and accomplishments along the way. Teachers use developmental checklists, work samples, photos, and observations to understand how your child is progressing and identify opportunities to build new skills. Families stay connected every step of the way through SproutAbout updates, family-teacher conferences, and daily conversations with their child’s teachers.

Moving to a new classroom is an exciting milestone. Children gradually visit their new classroom, meet their teachers, and become familiar with new routines before the transition. Teachers work together to support continuity, while families receive regular updates throughout the process.
