The path to kindergarten, and future success, goes through Preschool and Pre-K. The sooner your child starts their journey, the better. Let us ensure their school readiness. 

Welcome to Our School

Welcome to La Petite Academy educational daycare in Lakeland, FL! My name is Melissa and I am the director of this wonderful school. I have 27 years of experience in early education-first as a teacher, then a manager. I have my degree in early education, as well as my Director Credential. I have been with La Petite Academy since 2006 and have over eleven years as a director with the company.

The care and education of young children has always been my passion. I run my school like an extended family. I want us to have a relationship full of communication! We offer care from six weeks to 12 years old-including VPK, Before-and-After school, and we accept ELC. We provide a healthy breakfast, lunch, and an afternoon snack, as well as all of your child's diapers and wipes!

We want your child to love learning and want to be your partner in a lasting educational journey.

Our school, established in 1978, is nationally accredited through NECPA and has been recognized as a Florida Gold Seal Quality Care program provider.

We’re committed to keeping you connected throughout the day while your child is in our care. Get access to live streaming video of your child’s classroom, plus other real-time updates, with our exclusive mobile app for families, SproutAbout.

We are conveniently located to the Polk Parkway, between New Jersey and Lakeland Highlands Road, close to Edgewood Drive. If you are looking for education-driven child care in Lakeland, FL, then call La Petite Academy today and schedule a tour!

From the tour I knew Ms Joy had a true heart for children. That was evident in the first ten minutes of our conversation. To be honest her candor and honesty were refreshing. When we walked through the center, I was shocked at how big it was as from the parking lot it definitely is misleading. I was shown the entire building, I even asked to see the kitchen. I was very impressed with what I saw, teachers

were smiling and singing, kids were laughing and playing and Ms Joy took the time to discuss the curriculum. I am thrilled to have my daughter at this facility and I highly recommend it!
