"Lovely classroom set ups. Impressed with the activity/play centers."
"Great teachers. Great atmosphere. Everyone says hello when you walk in. Healthy food options. Security and live stream is the best. Couldn’t be happier that we chose La Petite for our child care."
"My daughter has only been here for the summer holidays and she’s loved every minute she has been there. I have never seen her so excited every morning she woke up to go to school. She loved the field trips and food and made a lot of friends too. Every single $ we spent here was worth it and I would highly recommend the school especially when the schools break off and you need somewhere to leave your child."
"When we started 4 years ago LPA was a great experience. The staff was engaged and they did multiple activities to spark children’s interest. There has been a lack of that same education standard now. There is a lot of staff turnover when there were multiple tenured staff prior. The communication has been worse in the last year."
"The school has gone downhill since they got a new director"
"Mostly good but the bad things are bad in my eyes"
"I have truly been happy with this school through the years. I have hated to see some good teachers leave for other job opportunities, but the school has done a great job with new staff. The school has been consistent with care, education, and providing pertinent information."
"Overall, the experience has been good. There are moments that have been difficult and unprofessional on the director and assistant director. There have been times when I bring up a concern or ask about a situation, the response can come back as defensive versus collaborative."
"I love the atmosphere of the school. The teachers are really nice and my child seems to like it there. I love all the picture/video updates. I appreciate the live streaming."
"Overall we love la petite and what they have done for our children. We’ve had the same teachers take care of both children versus large turnover. There have been struggles throughout the years and sometimes the director listens well and one time I was asked if I need to find another daycare to go to because I shared a concern on how a teacher handled a situation."
"I have always enjoyed how kind and friendly the teachers/staff are to my daughters and myself since the first day I took a tour of the school. The teachers/staff seem to really care about my daughters."
"We love la petite and the staff. The only downside is paying for pull up’s when my son is potty trained. That’s $52 a month we are required to pay for a service we don’t use."
"This day care is awesome , the staff is great ,caring and I love the communication we have with the day care . I will recommend this daycare to any parents that’s looking for an awesome daycare"
"The school and staff is overall awesome. There's issues here or there but it's always resolved"
"They are ok for after school if child is not staying long. They don’t enforce mask for safety and don’t pay attention to the kids much in my child’s room and have yet to see them clean things after other kids have touched them I never see the hats and dress up staff being sprayed or cleaned which is nasty"
"Charlotte has been attending since she was 6 weeks. We have demanding work schedules, and we have always been confident in the care provided. We receive regular updates showing stimulating activity, educational experiences, and outside fun. We love getting photos and videos of the children smiling and having fun. She has always been impeccably cared for. We have been satisfied with the COVID safety practices and updates. It is clear the teachers care about the children and are dedicated to their work. The setup with LPA has worked very well for our family. It has been well worth the investment."
