Supporting Our Community
As always, we’re proud to support our community. It starts with a healthy, safe environment when your child is away from home. Learn how we prioritize the well-being of your children and our staff.
Plus, for elementary school students, The Prep Lab offers distance learning support, STEM projects, and more, on a flexible schedule—including a full-day option.
Welcome to Our School
Welcome to the Germantown La Petite. We are located at 19901 Father Hurley Blvd on the corner of Wisteria Drive. With my many years of experience, I can confidently say that our school provides the highest quality of care and education for children as early as six weeks through the School-Age child.
Health and safety is our top priority. Throughout our school, we've strengthened our already rigorous cleanliness and hygiene practices by including more frequent hand washing and cleaning and sanitizing surfaces,touch points, and toys. Additional updated health and safety practices include: All staff members must wear masks when inside the building and health screening all staff members and children upon arrival at the school.
For peace of mind throughout the day, we use the mobile app Brightwheel to communicate real time updates of your child’s daily activity and coming soon is WatchMeGrow! This added benefit will allow families access to a live stream view of their child’s classroom space to observe their little ones as they engage in learning throughout the day!
After the disruption and shortened school year for most children, there are many questions about school when looking ahead to the fall. Our solution for full day care to support virtual learning is called The Prep Lab. During Prep Lab hours, we are able to accommodate and support virtual learning. Teachers will support your child's distance learning requirements, share challenging weekly STEM projects, and provide character-developing activities from our My Best Self™ curriculum.
Our teachers are highly-skilled professionals with many years of experience in early childhood education. Upon hiring, all staff are subjected to extensive background checks and also required to participate in yearly education training.
I would love to show you all the amazing things we have here at our school, please schedule a virtual tour today!
