Welcome to nationally-accredited La Petite Academy educational daycare in Tucson, AZ! My name is Tiffany and I am the director. I graduated from the University of Arizona with a bachelor's degree in family studies and I have more than 20 years of experience.
Our Infant Care, Preschool and other programs focus on development of the whole child. We provide premium diapers and wipes for children in our care. Our diapers are hypoallergenic, dye-free and chlorine-free (ECF). We also offer extra programs during the day including music, tumbling, soccer and dance weekly for your child (certain age groups).
Come and see our newly remodeled school including new paint, furniture, flooring, and playgrounds! Plus, two new classrooms! We have a new Infant classroom for mobile infants and an Early Preschool class to assist all of our children in their potty training journeys.
A majority of our team has their Child Development Associate, associate's degrees and/or bachelor's degrees in early education or related fields. They have more than 160 years of combined classroom experience with an outstanding 1,728 hours of continuing education credits.
We are nationally accredited by NEPCA. We also received $9,000 in Quality First Funding which has allowed us to improve our classrooms with current educational items. We serve the Marana, Oro Valley, Casa Adobes, and Northwest Tucson communities.
