"I loved the warm welcome I received from the director, first impressions are everything! Above all I felt my child would be safe, treated fairly and equally & happy."
"Love the school especially the teachers"
"Well coming staff at the school make my son and myself to be confident with the school activities to provide the best care in the absent of a parent or guardian."
"I would leave tomorrow if I"
"It's been just a location for daily child care however I don't see a lot of educational developmental programs being pushed. We work with our child at home to offset the daily daycare environment he/she is in."
"You wouldn't love my response"
"Not good at communication, don’t care if staffs kids are sick just wants them to come in anyways"
"Overall good. There are some very apparent staffing issues, but the staff is incredibly caring about the children."
"Our experience has overall been positive. I have not had any issues with directors or staff. It was frustrating that we have been through 4 directors since my son started in march of 2021. However the new director came right in and made us feel at home. I am so grateful she is still with us and have been the longest running director since I been there. I know if I have an issue I can go to her. The school challenges were staff shortages and school closings but that issue was for all daycares."
"We feel so lucky to have found La Petite! Our son has made so many advances in his learning and development since he started attending. Most importantly to us, the teachers are kind, respectful and loving, and provide a caring and nurturing environment for him. Can't say enough good things!"
"We love the manager, feels like she really cares. Teachers are good, I like how the communicate with children, very patient and gentle. I love the app where I can see that nothing bad is going on with my child, it’s very important for me.I wish the school would be cleaner and newer."
"ProsThe staff is amazing. Naturally I was hesitant to leave my children with strangers but I couldn't feel better about the people trusted with the most important things in the world to me. The curriculum is well thought out and tailored for each child's strengths and weaknesses. My kids are excited to get up at 5:00 in the morning to go see their teacher. They've learned how to socialize and everyday they're excited to show me new skills they've learned. Cons? Building is clean but is rough around the edges. The outdoor play area could use some love."
"We're so grateful to have found La Petite! The staff has been so patient and caring with our toddler while he has adjusted, and we know he is well cared for throughout the day."
"My children absolutely adore their teacher Amy MacLean which is the most important thing to me. She's been absolutely fantastic as well as the rest of the staff."
"La Petite has been a wonderful experience from the start. The teachers and staff have always been so welcoming and care so much for my child. They have looked out for our best interests as a family and I truly cannot imagine my son anywhere else. He has grown so much and I have his teachers to thank! I am comfortable with him being there for as long as I am at work because I know he is in good hands, and his teachers are always updating me when needed. If I have a concern, they are immediately there to comfort me and reassure me. I’m very pleased and I can’t wait to see him grow more at La Petite!"
