La Petite Academy of Rio Rancho

Thank you for visiting La Petite Academy educational daycare and preschool in Rio Rancho, NM. My name is DeAnn and I am the director. I have my CDA and 15 years of experience with La Petite Academy. Our school was established in 1982 and provides Rio Rancho with first rate care and education through our preschool and other age-specific programs. We are currently a five-star, nationally-accredited center through NAEYC.

We remain committed to doing everything possible to support our community. That starts with a healthy, safe environment for your child when they're away from home. We are closely following guidance from the CDC, as well as state and local officials and health authorities, as we take extreme care to maintain our safe, healthy school environment.

Our staff is caring and dedicated to our children and families. Together, we have more than 100 years of experience and 1,600 hours of training! Our staff receives training on a regular basis to maintain licensing regulations, and all of our lead teachers have either their CDA, associate's degree or bachelors degree.

COMING SOON: We’re excited to share that this fall, our school will offer WatchMeGrow live video streaming! WatchMeGrow gives you secure access to view your child’s classroom in real time while your child is in our care – either from a computer or via mobile app.

Plus, we are offering The Prep Lab. This program supports school-age students and their families as they face any challenges and changes in their local school district this upcoming school year, with flexible scheduling and even a full-day option. Our teachers have been trained to support local school district distance learning so children stay on course with their studies.

Come in and schedule a tour of our La Petite Academy in Rio Rancho, NM. We are located on Southern just west of Golf Course. We look forward to meeting your family!
