Here's what people have to say

5 out of 5 stars

We love the teachers at Sandy, UT LPA. The director and assistant director are top notch. Everyone is friendly, professional, concerned about safety, health and learning. They are quick to respond to any of our communications/questions. Our children are excited to attend each morning; this says a lot about the care they receive.

I was very nervous leaving my child for the first time, as I am a new mom. But all the teachers and staff made us feel very welcomed. The BrightWheel app is amazing and I check it multiple times a day so I can see how he is doing. It makes me feel better knowing what he's doing throughout the day.

I love La Petite. The teachers are so warm and kind, I am at ease knowing they are taking care of my child while I'm away. My child always has something to share about the fun they had at the school. She's having way more fun then she would at home with me! :p

Enrolled Family

The Academy has been an amazing experience for my baby. She absolutely loves it. I've never seen her upset or unhappy when I drop her off and pick her up. The director, assistant director and ALL the teachers at the Academy are AWESOME!!! They are caring and excited to hang out with and teach my baby everyday. I couldn't ask for a better group of people to raise my baby each day while I'm at work.

Enrolled Family

I love it. The staff is great, the location is great. I wouldn't recommend any other daycare.

Enrolled Family

I truly love La Petite. All the teachers I have interacted with throughout the years have been caring and amazing. My child loves going there and is sad when it is not a daycare day.

Enrolled Family

I have loved my (and my daughters) experience at La Petite. All of the teachers/directors have been great and I love when my daughter forms a bond with them. La Petite is responsible with my daughters safety, which is very important to me. Everyone is so kind and caring, which is also high on my list of importance! If I can't be there with her, I want her to know that she is loved and cared for, and

...

La Petite has done a great job of that!

Enrolled Family

We have had both my daughters in this school since they were infants and have had a wonderful experience. We have recommended this school to other people and will continue to keep our children enrolled here as long as we require child care.

Each day at La Petite Academy is filled with opportunities for your child to learn, play, explore, and grow. Children explore learning centers, participate in small- and large-group activities, spend time outdoors, and enjoy plenty of opportunities for choice and play. Meals, snacks, and rest are also built into the day, creating a familiar routine that helps children feel comfortable while keeping each day fun and engaging. Daily activities are designed with your child’s age and developmental stage in mind.

Our teachers regularly observe your child’s development and use those insights to plan learning experiences that support their individual needs and growth. Each child has an individual portfolio that grows with them as they move from one age group to the next, capturing their learning, milestones, and accomplishments along the way. Teachers use developmental checklists, work samples, photos, and observations to understand how your child is progressing and identify opportunities to build new skills. Families stay connected every step of the way through SproutAbout updates, family-teacher conferences, and daily conversations with their child’s teachers.

Moving to a new classroom is an exciting milestone. Children gradually visit their new classroom, meet their teachers, and become familiar with new routines before the transition. Teachers work together to support continuity, while families receive regular updates throughout the process.
