Keeping Families Connected
Our families mean the world to us and keeping them connected is one of our main goals. That’s why we created SproutAbout®, our exclusive family communications app that features live streaming video of the classroom and much, much more.
Welcome to Our School
Welcome to La Petite Academy, a nationally accredited educational daycare in Albuquerque, NM. My name is Candice and I am the academy director. I have over 18 years of experience as well as a CDA and NAC.
We provide care for children six weeks to 12 years of age through our Infant Care, Preschool and other early education programs. We serve the communities of the Southwest side of Albuquerque near the West Mesa area. During the school year (August - May) we also offer the free New Mexico Pre-K Grant Program from 8:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., Monday through Friday.
We have new technology in our School-Age classroom. These enhancements include iPads featuring apps to create art, music and videos, tripods for moviemaking, robots for coding and more!
We’re committed to keeping you connected throughout the day while your child is in our care. Get access to live streaming video of your child’s classroom, plus other real-time updates, with our exclusive mobile app for families, SproutAbout.
