The best time to learn a second language is in early childhood. Your child will discover conversational Spanish through fun, interactive experiences.

"Our son has been attending over a year now. We love it, and so does our son. He is thriving there. We have so much support from all the teachers and director. He's making friends, learning lots, and has loads of fun. We are very thankful for the establishment."
"The La Petite staff has been so welcoming and caring to our daughter. The clean and structured environment with incredible staff has helped her fit in very well. This being her first experience in a daycare or academy we were interested to how she would like it and having such a great personable staff, she cannot wait to go to La Petite on her school days. We are very happy we chose La Petite and so appreciative of the attentiveness and structure that the staff provides."

I absolutely love this school. The teachers are so caring and lovely to see everyday! They genuinely care about the children and my daughter has learned so much being there.
We love the family style atmosphere. The experience / tenure of our son's teacher makes us feel confident about the quality of education.
This has been an amazing school for my son and our family! He is thriving and happy, and I have so much to be thankful for when it comes to his care! I can’t imagine him going to another school.
Amazing! I couldn't trade the comfort and love and support we have received for anything. They made my transition back to work so easy!

At La Petite Academy of Folsom, your child’s day includes a mix of learning, play, outdoor time, meals, and rest. Children explore Learning Centers, participate in small- and large-group activities, and enjoy time outdoors. Meals, snacks, rest, and plenty of opportunities for choice and play are built into the day, providing a familiar routine while keeping each day engaging.
Each child has an individual portfolio that grows with them as they progress from one age group to the next, capturing their development and learning along the way. Teachers use developmental checklists, work samples, photos, and observations to understand their progress and support continued growth. Families stay connected through SproutAbout updates, family-teacher conferences, and daily conversations with their child’s teachers.
Our Learn as We Grow curriculum follows six core concepts throughout the year. Children explore these same concepts from Toddlers through Pre-K, but how they experience them changes as they grow. Each program introduces developmentally appropriate activities that build in complexity, helping children deepen their understanding and build new skills as they progress from one classroom to the next.
Moving to a new classroom is an exciting milestone at La Petite Academy of Folsom. 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.
At La Petite Academy of Folsom, we recognize that every child learns and develops differently. We encourage you to talk with your local school about your child’s specific needs. Our team will work with you to understand how we can support your child and discuss any accommodations or additional support they may need. Open communication with families helps us create a nurturing, inclusive environment where each child can learn, grow, and feel supported.
Outdoor exploration happens more than once a day, weather permitting, giving children time to run, climb, jump, and explore nature. These experiences encourage curiosity, movement, and a connection with the world around them.
