"The director is incredible, if it wasn’t for her we would have taken both of our children out. I think she tries her hardest to work with tools are provided to her. Some teachers are really amazing, some are the total opposite. For being the most expensive daycare in the area it leaves much to be desired."
"It has mostly been good. We are very grateful to Melody, the school director and the infant teachers who take care of our baby girl. We also loved our early pre-k teacher Nikayla Franklin and wished our son could have stayed with her longer. He truly seemed to thrive under her care. We may consider keeping him in preschool if Nikayla is still the preschool teacher when he moves up classes. It is very shocking that the school does not have a storm shelter. All public schools in the area have storm shelters and I believe the current practice of sitting in the hallways is extremely unsafe as we have witnessed with prior tornados in the area."
"We love our current teacher Ms Nikayla. We are happy with our infant teachers as well. We absolutely love the director Melody- she truly and genuinely seems to care about the children and their experiences. We were concerned at some point with teacher turnover, but this seems to have stabilized for the main part. We would love a better playground experience with updates play areas and shaded spaces. I believe for how nice the school is inside, the outside grounds are very below average compared to some of the other daycares we have considered."
"Great staff... truly seem to care about the children."
"We have good experience with this school, other than the communication problem. Also, other than the current director (the second person in charge of this School in the absence of the Director), never interact with parents. Even if we look at her, she does not even bother to say hi. I have seen a query about how welcome the front desk staff of this school is (other than the Director no one else at the front desk interacted with us so far). Other than the Director, I will put them a zero on a scale of 1-10). Communication can be improved."
"I love the teachers and our child loves her teachers and the program as well. We really don’t want to move her as we feel consistency is key to good behavior but there are some bugs we would like fixed in regards to communication"
"Too pricey but we enjoy ability to watch video. We really like the director Melody, unfortunately we have experienced a lot of turnover with teachers so it seems every couple of months our child has a complete stranger for a teacher."
"My daughter loves going. Every morning when I drop her off she immediately runs to her teacher and jumps in her arms for a hug/snuggle."
"I feel very welcomed here and I feel comfortable dropping off my son. The updates throughout the day makes it easier for me to make the transition from maternity leave back to work. I was worried he would be sad all day but he seems to enjoy all of the teachers and has a great time. His overall skills have improved and napping at school and at home has been great. It will always be hard leaving him but I know he's in good hands and I can always check on the app to see how he's doing."
"Great, Melody is fantastic and we have really enjoyed some of the teachers."
"Overall, it's been great! The price is very steep, but fairly worth it. I don't think my child would have learned as much as they may have in a different center."
"My children have both been with the school since they were babies. My oldest will be going to kindergarten this year, and my youngest still has 2 years left. I love this school and everything it has to offer. The director is a one of a kind that doesn’t just have a “job,” but truly feels like she has a huge family. She cares about the parents and kids like nothing I’ve ever seen before. She makes sure that her staff is as caring as she is with the kids and are really taking care of the kids. She is truly phenomenal and has a heart of gold with holding the whole school together well. I love the ability to see my child anytime with live streaming. The updates daily are also so helpful with feeling apart of my childrens lives while having to work."
"Honestly this school is the best we've used. I did have to unenroll my toddler because we could not afford for both kids to attend, but when his brother starts kindergarten we will reenroll him."
"We have loved La Petite for the last 6.5 years. Our oldest attended so we knew our middle son would be attending. The teachers are so kind, knowledgeable, and understand the responsibility they have to take care of our babies when we can't be there. They are wonderful about communicating about our child and teach my child as a unique individual."
"We love how much the teachers care about our kiddo. They love sharing new things she is learning."
