I LOVE La Petite Academy. They treat my children as their own showing genuine care and concern for their health and well-being. I receive multiple daily updates, many describing how the activity fosters my children's development. The teachers and management staff are ALWAYS so pleasant and welcoming. I can't say enough about how much I love La Petite.

We love this school, every interaction with staff is supportive and caring. My child is almost always happy to arrive and jump into the fun.

My babies main teacher, Francis, always seems happy and excited to receive my child in the morning. You can tell her connection to the babies in that they all fuss when she leaves the room and wait for her return. My boy greets her with a huge smile every morning and does not fuss at all to be handed off to her, this gives me the confidence to know my baby is being well cared for.
