We absolutely love this daycare! The staff is truly amazing — caring, patient, and genuinely invested in each child’s growth and happiness. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing our kids are in such a nurturing and positive environment every day. The activities they plan are engaging, creative, and educational. From hands-on crafts and sensory play to learning activities and outdoor time, there is always something fun and meaningful happening. Communication with families is excellent, and it’s clear the team goes above and beyond. We are so grateful to have found such a wonderful place and would highly recommend this daycare to any parent looking for a safe, supportive, and enriching environment for their child!

Our second home! My 4 year old daughter has attended here since she was eighteen months old. We immediately felt the love starting with Miss Iris who welcomed us from day one. Miss Janet, Mr. Trae, Miss Alex, Miss Italyah, Miss Elizabeth, Miss Alexis, Miss Taylor, Miss Brown, Miss Ausha— the list goes on and on— have all treated my daughter and myself with kindness and respect. They have been so supportive of working parents and work hard everyday to keep everyone’s spirits up. They deserve so much credit for being such a big part of our children’s lives! I am so proud of all they have taught my daughter. She is so smart and ready to kill it in kindergarten soon. I recommend La Petite S Independence to everyone I know. Nothing beats the peace of mind I have knowing my daughter is in a safe, happy place and thriving while I tackle being a working mom. I couldn’t have made it through law school without you guys! With love, Miss Fernandez

I’ve waited several months after leaving to gather my thoughts so I can give the most accurate unbiased review based on my personal experiences. My daughter was enrolled for almost a year. First, the staff were very friendly to my daughter and really made her feel welcomed each day. We loved their summer activities offered and their in house field trips. We also loved that the kids were always involved in activities each day. I decided to pull my daughter due to the admin constantly making mistakes on military benefits forms or forgetting to submit the forms on my families behalf. The director was not transparent when mistakes occurred which led to me paying a full month’s tuition out of pocket despite receiving military assistance. This was a consistent problem!!! When I attempted to have meaningful conversations about the mistakes, the director was defensive, unapologetic and unprofessional. Despite La Petites insistence that this was the military program MCCYNs mistakes, we've been enrolled at a new unaffiliated facility for several months now and haven't had a single issue with delayed tuition payments. While we loved the staff and the variety of activities, I simply cannot recommend this La Petite location to military families relying on MCCYNs fee assistance program.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Five Stars — Outstanding Toddler Program! La Petite Academy’s toddler program has been an absolute blessing for our family. From day one, the teachers have shown an incredible level of care, patience, and professionalism. They take the time to truly understand each child’s personality and needs, and it shows in how confident and happy our toddler is every day at drop-off and pick-up. The classroom environment is clean, safe, and engaging, with age-appropriate activities that help build independence, motor skills, and early social development. I love how intentional the staff is with communication — daily updates, photos, and notes make us feel connected to everything our child is learning and experiencing. Our little one has grown so much since joining the program — more words, better routines, and a genuine excitement about school. It’s clear the team puts their heart into what they do. If you’re looking for a nurturing, structured, and truly supportive place for your toddler, La Petite Academy is unmatched. We couldn’t be happier and highly recommend their toddler program to any parent!
