Welcome to La Petite Academy educational daycare in Frederick, MD. My name is Tammy and I am the center director. I have worked in the education field for over 20 years!
We are proud to be a NECPA-accredited school! Our center offers programs for children ages six weeks to 12 years old through our Infant Care, Preschool and School-Age programs.
