La Petite Academy
of Ballwin, MO

Thank you for visiting La Petite Academy educational daycare in Ballwin, MO! My name is Susan Woodworth and I am the Academy Director. I studied early childhood education in college, attained my early childhood administration certificate, and have over ten years of experience as a teacher and manager. In addition to providing superior local infant care, our preschool program offers the best early education in the Ballwin community.

I run this school like everyone involved is an extension of my own family – the children, parents and teachers. I strive to create a warm and welcoming environment and maintain an open-door policy for anyone who would like to talk. We plan a lot of events for everyone to participate in and I work hard to ensure that families here in Ballwin meet each other and develop strong relationships as well.

I find it rewarding when I overhear children telling their parents about the great day that they had and how much fun they had with their teachers. We are fortunate to have an outstanding staff that is dedicated to our children and families. Half our teachers have taught at our school for more than five years, and we have more than 50 years of combined experience. All of our teachers receive monthly training as well as ongoing training provided by the state. Additionally, 90% of our staff is certified in CPR and First Aid.

We value the relationships we have with our families and work hard to involve them. We offer a number of opportunities and events for your family to be involved in and enjoy together.
