"The director and most staff have worked very hard to help us with our children but they need more training/consistent training for behavior issues. Don't like only having 2 teachers for 30 kids. Need more activities to keep kids busy in the summer break. Either have more tablets for kids or do not allow tablets at all. The director has been awesome working with us but she can only do so much without more support. In 5 years of being there, not one person is still there that was there when we started. I think you should invest more in your employees to prevent high turnover. I would say the school is good for smaller children, not for kids over 6 with any kind of behavior issue. I feel like the teachers should have enough training to figure out how to get a child to change their clothes when they have an accident instead of asking me what to do. Generally have had a good experience but would like to see some overall improvement."

"Overall good experience other than it seems like there is a lot of turn over, especially in the preschool class."

"It’s been a good experience the only problem is the high turnover of staff"

"I couldn’t imagine taking my kids anywhere else! The staff is so nice and inviting! And I love the director, erica! She always has a smile on her face. She’s always willing to be flexible and an inviting face. They say it takes a village, and she makes La Petite part of our village!"

"Love the school and directors! Couldn’t imagine my kid going anywhere else"

"Everyone is willing to work around my schedule and is always keeping me updated! I love how clean the environment is and how attentive the teachers are!"

"The director Erika is wonderful at listening to all of my concerns and assuring me that she will make sure my concerns are addressed. She truly cares for all the kids there and is the main reason why I have kept a my child enrolled."

"We had paid for kindermusik at one time for months and never got any materials or even any video or discussion of the activities. My child never spoke of it. I honestly believe we were paying extra for months for nothing. We just stopped paying and no one even questioned it. It’s my ONLY complaint. We know our son loves it there."

"Overall very good no complaints."

"Overall the management of the school shows professional sympathy to your concerns and care for your children at all times. Furthermore, the school can improve on cleanliness and proper staffing."

"Great school. Cost is comparable to similar offerings in the area. I wish we could afford it but alas, we cannot for much longer and have to drop La Petite. However, I don't think you can do much better in Arnold at this childcare center price point."

"I love the staff. They are friendly and always communicate with me about my daughter's needs in a professional and thoughtful manner."

"The teachers and director make me feel like I’m dropping my kids off with family. There is always friendly, familiar faces around every corner, and I love getting the updates, so I know my kids are actually learning and not just playing. I couldn’t imagine taking my kids anywhere else!"

"These are some additional things i have observed when picking up my child. A staff member in one of the other room one day was yelling at a child for misbehavior. I understand discipline but this was not a calm reprimand but an actually angry yell. Now when you observe that and you have a baby in one of the other room it just makes me question what is the staff doing to calm down my crying baby? Are they shaking him? Yelling at him? It is not a good look for the school or its reputation for parents picking up their kids to observe these things going on."

"I drive over 20 minutes to take my 1 year old to La Petite. When I was looking for childcare with my oldest son (8 years) this was the 4th and last attempt to find a good facility. The only reason he doesn’t currently attend is because it is out of their district to take him to school. However, He will be attending throughout this summer and he is so excited! The staff is friendly, loving, and so easy to talk to. Miss Erica is a wonderful director and adds so much to the facility! Anybody that asks about childcare, I am quick to refer La Petite without any second thoughts! I look forward to watching our baby grow not only physically, but mentally thanks to the teachers and staff at La Petite."
