"Change in management has caused a lot of the really good teachers to leave. I am sad that things are just not as great as they used to be. We are not changing schools since my son will be starting Kindergarten next year and do not want to change up his daily routine."
"Everything has been amazing. I have no complaints & my child looks forward to going each day. Asks me when we are going to leave to go to daycare."
"Absolutely fantastic school! The staff are wonderful ladies who really love and dote on my child. We appreciate them more than they will ever know!"
"Everyone is always very friendly and I can tell my daughter loves her teachers"
"I like the fact that I got the help I needed when I was in big need of a daycare last minute. My child has learned and improve so much so fast. I feel she’s safe at all times and I feel confident when she gets dropped off because she’s extremely happy when she goes."
"The teachers are great. My son has a great time and loves his daily routines. My son has come so far while attending this school for the past almost 3 year. I am very happy we have enrolled him here."
"The school is good. I wish they did not close so often. They close on President's day, veterans day, the day after Thanksgiving and that is when we need them the most, when school is closed."

"Overall it’s fairly OK. I know that the director does try to do the best that she can. They are always short staffed which is something that needs to come from upper management to be rectified. Definitely needs to enforce more cleanliness of toys hands and face is to prevent illness is from constantly spreading to the school"
“We appreciate you bringing this to our attention. The concerns that you have mentioned regarding management (including those involving staffing and ratios) are ones that we take very seriously, and will be noted for further action. ”
"Overall the school has done well with satisfying my needs as a parent just some minor things where teachers were just allowing my child to come home covered with dirt in her hair, paint all over her causing a rash, not changing her and almost handing my child off to what they believed was a complete stranger."
"Excellent. All the staff is always attentive and friendly. They make a point to know you by name (at least your child's) and give you relevant and, sometimes, funny information about what your child's day has been like. If I ever move my first choice will be the closest La Petite to our new location."
"I love the interaction with my child and teachers she has had she she started and currently has. I like that the teachers are able to answer my questions and concerns as needed without any problem and give great feedback on my child."
"Marissa has been the director for the last few years and the facility has truly improved with her in charge. She is a fantastic communicator, professional, and has great relationships with the staff which effects the overall facility in a positive way. Mrs. Wanda is not currently my child’s teacher but I hope she will be next year in VPK and she was previously for oldest. She is phenomenal to see in action as I walk past her classroom everyday now to pick up my son. All the staff and teachers are great but those two ladies go above and beyond!"
"The school is pretty good. There are many constant teacher changes and a few too many days they are closed. I don't like the fact that they closed the day after Thanksgiving and veterans day. School is closed those days and that is when daycare needs to be open."
"Overall care for my child has been great,although We would like to see the facility retain teachers and staff!The ability to have better access to viewing the classrooms remotely.Aswell as better communication indidualized for the child's parents."
"I love the school. It was hard to complete this survey as both of my daughters teachers are fairly new and I haven't been able to get to know them quite well."
