"My only regret is not finding LaPetite sooner! Our son's attitude about school has done a complete turn around, and he loves his school and his teacher. Teacher Ryan is one of the most genuine and caring educators any of my children have ever worked with (and we've had a lot of amazing teachers over the years!). Everyone at LaPetite is so kind, and we are so happy to have joined the LaPetite family! :)"
"Overall our experience has been positive. It really does feel like a family at this facility, and we've always felt welcomed by the teachers and staff. I know that my child is in a safe and loving environment when dropping off each day. The main challenges have been in the past year or so since staffing has become such a huge problem. I understand that this is a cross-industry issue and that the admin at the school is doing its best to re-staff, but it's hard to work around the reduced hours that the school has had to impose given the shortage of teachers. It's also frustrating knowing that the shortage of staff means my child is often grouped in with children who are much younger for longer periods of the day, and is likely not getting the advanced educational opportunities that are needed to continue pushing them forward in their personal educational journey."
"I like the open layout. It isn’t just a long hallway with doors to the classrooms. It’s one big room with half walls and doors and I like that connection between everyone in the school."
"We love ms. Nicole and ms Erica and Ms Adrainana"
"Friendly managers. Usually nice teachers. Newer teachers aren’t as highly qualified as old. His new teacher is nice though which is good. Some staffing issues but overall they have historically had nice teachers which is import"
"Overall it’s been a positive experience, but communication from staff could always be better."
"Very good school with great teachers, but the child/teacher ratio has fluctuated at times. I would also like to see a greater attention to education, not just physical and social development. There have been several times when we've come and no one was at the front desk. However, overall we are happy with the school."
"even tho the teachers are nice i’m over all not happy and my expectations are not met"
"The school has been good for the most part. The kids seem to like teachers and other kids. The staff seems overwhelmed since we've been able to go back into the school after not doing that for 2 years and just doing drop-off, pick-ups at the door. The kid-to-teacher ratio seems too high. One of our children has had some write-ups or aggression issues. I think he may need to be moved up classrooms to be with older children vs staying in toddler room."
"The school has been phenomenal. The staff and teachers are friendly and truly care about the kids!"
"Really appreciate the communication and the friendly nature of the staff."
"Everyone has been great. It has been a challenge navigating through COvid protocols and not seeing the teachers daily and speaking with them as we are not allowed in the building but we understand it’s for everyone’s safety."
"The staff/teachers have always been kind, caring, and enthusiastic about education! We love this school, and our child is always excited to get out the door in the morning so she can see her friends and teachers!"
"We love the La Petite teachers! Low turnover for management and classroom teachers and I feel that they truly care for my children. I love getting daily communication regarding meals, nap time and activities (via photos)."
"I have seen so much growth in my children. We love their teachers and love sending our kids here."
