La Petite Academy of Shelby

Hi, my name is Lynnel Hogencamp, and I am the director of La Petite Academy in Shelby, NC. In 2000, I started my career in the early childhood field. I started as a teacher the Infant room where I worked for 10 years before teaching every age group, along with being an assistant and center director. In August of 2020 I was blessed with becoming the director here at La Petite.

We are very proud of our school. We have several long-term teachers. Our teachers have completed early childhood education classes, and many have degrees in early childhood. We are also certified in CPR, First Aid, SIDS and Playground Safety.

My staff and I enjoy building relationships with every family. We have an open-door policy and invite you to participate in our learning experiences.

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.

Each day, your child will be engaged in educational activities that take place in a loving, caring environment. Our goal is to offer early learning experiences that will enrich your child's development, promote a positive self-image, and ensure a lifelong love of learning.
