LaPetite has always been an integral part of my family since my first child in 2012, and all my kids have received exceptional care from the moment they could start with your incredible staff. I wholeheartedly recommend this location to everyone with a newborn who's hesitant to start their journey here. The best thing LaPetite did for me is provide Video Access.
The administrator, Ruby, tried to feed our son the wrong bottle on day one of daycare, which is a violation of licensing guidelines and was reported to DCF. Ruby never sincerely apologized or owned up to this, only saying "sorry for the inconvenience" and "she just never checked the bottle" when we could see her read the label through the webcam offered to parents. Additionally, feeding schedules were wildly different than explained to us by Ruby - on one occasion did he go over 4 hours without a bottle despite being awake... while she was covering in the room for another teacher. We have since left La Petite, but never felt comfortable leaving our child in her direct care for the duration of his attendance. This review is a 3/5 solely because the majority of other staff members were attentive and caring for the children.
I just did my walk through with Sabrina. I can’t wait for my child to start with Ms. Yvonne and Ms. Teagan!
We have had both of our kids here from a very young age and have had a wonderful experience. The teachers here genuinely care about teaching and providing compassionate care to our children. Would definitely recommend!
We just ended a walk through at this daycare because we witnessed a teacher SCREAMING at the children, this was the area for the children 2 1/2 years and older. When I say screaming, I mean at the top of her lungs, angry. If your children are in this daycare, PLEASE, PLEASE remove them immediately! Mind you, the director was the staff member doing the tour, when I asked if this was normal, she said nothing and did nothing. This was verbal abuse, terror and trauma for these poor children and absolutely unacceptable. I will be reporting to the state. I am so shaken and upset. I’ve never experienced anything like this.
