Powered by GoogleMy niece and nephew genuinely love being here, I never hear the end of how much fun they have everyday. They also really enjoy all of the teachers.
My son has been going here since he was about 8 months and we have been so happy with everyone. Everyone is so friendly and attentive. He’s had great teachers who treat him like their own. He loves going to school and has learned so much. He currently has Ms. Kimmie as a teacher and we wouldn’t be happier.
Both my kids have been attending since they were 7 weeks old and I wouldn’t send them anywhere else. I know my children are cared for and they love their teachers so much. The toddler teachers are awesome and have been working with my son so much and he comes home singing different songs and talks so much more. The preschool staff has been amazing with my daughter and she’s starting to write her name and identify letters in her name.
Love Love Love this place!! I don’t know what I’d do without La Petite. My daughter is in the school age class and the amount of help and attention she receives warms my heart. Specifically, from Mrs Salma and Mrs Jocelyn! They are such an amazing team. I love how creative and engaging they are with the students. Leaving my daughter in their care gives such peace of mind knowing she’s having fun while also getting help with her school work.
Our daughter is almost 2 and loves it there. All the teachers have been great. She has learned so much from all of them, which really sets this place apart (it's not a rigid curriculum, which wouldn't work for this young, but they do have lessons every week and her language and social skills are advancing leaps and bounds). The managers are amazing and communicative and understanding. She eats well there and we know she is safe and well-looked after while we are both at work. Cost, like ALL childcare anymore, is a huge part of our monthly budget each month, and we wish we lived in a society that offset that more, but after touring 12 different daycares in town before we started her here at six months old, this is is still the one I would choose nearly two years later.
