The women at this facility have treated my daughter and I like family from day one!!! They work hard everyday to make sure that our children are happy and the facility is just right for them. I love being able to see my daughter throughout the day, whenever I please through the Sprout About app. Puts my mind at ease, because this is a first for us. Dory, and Ms. Toni, and Destiny and Jahzeel and Ofcourse the amazing Ms. Lola, who if you know her would agree, that she's amazing and has a way with kiddos that most don't. You women, all of you, make it so that when I leave my babygirl, hard as it may be and as hard as she makes it sometimes, I am Confident in all yall's abity to care for her in the way that she needs. I owe my life to yall!!!! Because without you ladies, I wouldnt be able to go to work and do what I need to do. Thank you for caring enough about our tiny family, to call and check when we aren't there. We truly are grateful that we've become a part of yalls family!!!!

New management seems to care more about financial than child. What was a decent preschool is now awful. The emotional wreckage on our preschooler has been horrible. Also offered services that never happened and no plans to honor them. At this point, I wouldn't trust them with a dog much less a child.

This location for this company goes above and beyond for our kids. My two special needs children were recently enrolled at the Parker location and it was not a good experience, it was their first time ever being outside of a home daycare and the first day there when I went to pick them up I was told that they didn't know if they were going to be able to care for them (I know its because they didn't know how to deal with their differences but I chose this specific company because they said they could take special needs children). their needs aren't that severe. My daughter is epileptic and my son is non verbal autistic. So when we moved from Parker to Lakewood I was very nervous to put my children at the same company of daycare. but BOY WAS IT NIGHT AND DAY!! The teachers and Director and asst. Director took my kids in with open arms and made them feel so welcome including myself. The communication from this location is amazing and they have gone above and beyond for my son and his needs and figuring out how to best work with him and have helped me learn a good amount of things about him too. They have done the same thing for my daughter, as well! This place really has a very special place in my heart and my kids are always so excited go to school here everyday! They really do all they can to make sure our kids thrive and succeed no matter any differences they might have. We are so happy to be apart of the La Petite family! If you are looking for amazing care for your kid(s), this is the place for them to go!

My daughter has been attending La Petite Academy for a year now and she loves it. The staff and director and exceptionally kind, respectful, professional and knowledgeable. Most of the staff have been at this location for many years. The schedules are extremely flexible to accommodate varying schedules and family demands. My daughter has learned how to be a better friend, how to take better care of things and, of course, preschool basics like shapes, colors, numbers and her alphabet.
