"This school has failed my expectations as a whole. Sense my son has been enrolled into the pre-K program I haven’t seen anything that would make me believe he is learning the necessary skills he will need to flourish in kindergarten. I’ve paid less at another DAYCARE and received paperwork to let me know what my child is doing while they are there. The center also can be very smelly upon entering due to the infant room. I think they could do so much better with that. Again have been in other centers and no foul smells to indicate that either diapers have sat in the room too long or whatever else the case may be. I also was thinking of enrolling my infant once I have him but there were a lot of red flags that I just wouldn’t be comfortable leaving my baby there for 6-8 hours a day. Not at all pleased with this academy."
"The staff is professional and seem very adamant about the children that attend this school. There are codes upon entering for safety and also an app for knowledge of what your child is doing throughout the day."
"Everything about this school screams awesome !!!!"
"Having the ability to see my child progress"
"I love it!! This past summer, I only used them for summer care, but I will definitely be back next summer. My two favorite people of all that work there are Ms. John'na and Ms. Bea!!"
"The New Assistant director and New Director are both very unprofessional.I would not continue to pay all this money and continuous registration fees, only to be word about my child while I'm at work. If the leaders are so unprofessional, how can we trust the rest of the staff the rest of the staff."

"Daycare is clean. Cannot keep teachers. Children are in different classrooms,depends on how many teachers are available. There are MANY times when there is no one at the front desk. More of a baby sitting facility versus a teaching environment."
"As a single parent,I feel very confident every day at work knowing that daughter is in good care for after care services at La Petite. The staff is amazing!"
"The staff is friendly. My granddaughter is in the 2-1 class. She has been going there for several months and I do not feel she is learning anything. In this period we have received about 5 papers that she has done in the classroom. I feel like these children should be doing something productive each day not just being babysit. I was told by Mrs B that we should receive a picture and a paper each day. I talked to The director, Melissa about this and she had excuses saying it had been a hectic week. I have also talked to them about my grand daughter being moved each afternoon to the younger class after 4. There are other children in the room that could also be moved to the younger room in the afternoon but it seems it is always the same ones. I was told my granddaughter was one of the youngest in the class but that should not matter. She is now 2 1/2 and should be moved to the 2-2 class but none of her class has been moved. We are paying more st this daycare than any we have used but yet she is not learning anything. She is well advanced for her age and knows more than others in this class. I have told her teacher and the assistant director not to move her in the afternoons but it is still happening. Employees are parking in the parking spaces in front of the daycare instead of parking out further which makes parents with children park further out. It seems the front parking spaces would be for parents with children. There are days that we o not receive updates. As usual excuses are given. As a director Melissa should make sure teachers are doing their jobs on a daily basis Is there any training for these teachers??? It seems they are hired off the street and start working. Most of them sit in a chair versus being up and being involved with the children each day. "
"I love this place. My daughter had been going since she was 1 and she is now 4. The staff are such a joy to be around and are very detailed when it comes to my daughter. I am loving the Brightwheel app that’s keeps me updated throughout the day when it comes to my daughter. I can send a text to the teacher and receive a replay within min , but no less than an hour. I love seeing the videos and photos of my sweet babygirl throughout the day and I can even add her grandparent so they see her as well.. Lapetite 7593 You Rock!!!! "
"Overall experience is great. The staff shows compassion to every child and Ms. Tony is very interactive with her students."
"My daughter loves to go to school now. When she attended other schools she did not want to go to school."
"My general experience has been pleasant. Ms. Toni is amazing. I Love her enthusiasm, patience, genuine concern for my child's care."
"Over all it hasn't been negative. But the communication between teacher and parent is not there. Director is nice and helpful when needed."
"Everyone is always so bright and cheery when I come in."
