Welcome to Our School
Welcome to La Petite Academy educational daycare in New Port Richey, FL! My name is Ann Marie and I am the academy director. I have an associate's degree in early childhood education as well as 33 years of management experience.
Our school, including infant care and preschool programs, is nationally accredited by NECPA. The standards that we follow are higher than the State of Florida's Child Daycare Licensing Standards.
I strive to create a warm and welcoming child care environment here in New Port Richey and maintain an open-door policy for anyone who would like to talk. We have implemented even stronger safety protocols, face mask are required for all staff and parents who enter the office area, every person who enters the building will have their temperature checked, and extra sanitizing of toys and high touch areas.
We are also happy to announce that parents will soon be able to live stream their child's classroom through WatchMeGrow. We offer School-Age children a challenging STEM curriculum and are happy to now offer The Prep Lab to help keep the students on track during these uncertain time.
We have an outstanding staff that is dedicated to our children and families. All of our teachers receive monthly training provided by the state.
