Welcome to Our School
Welcome to our wonderful La Petite Academy educational daycare in Louisville, CO, voted #1 city in the nation for families! My name is Jodie and I am the director and have been with La Petite for over 33 years.
At La Petite Academy we offer Infant Care, Preschool and other programs that provide the perfect foundation for learning and development. All of our teachers have been in early childhood education for at least three to four years. Most have been at our school for over two years and some up to 25 years. They receive monthly trainings as well as trainings offered by the state.
My goal is to create a warm and caring environment with an open door policy. We offer a number of opportunities for parents to participate, including as classroom readers and guest speakers. We have fun family events!
Our curriculum emphasizes language and literacy, cognitive development, social emotional skills, physical activity and creativity.
We are also excited that La Petite Academy was chosen as Colorado Parents Top 5 Family Favorites in Child Care for 2016! Schedule a tour of our amazing school in Louisville, CO today! I look forward to meeting your family!
