Parents consistently highlight exceptional leadership from Director Erica and her staff, along with strong communication through daily updates and live camera feeds.

La Petite has been our go to learning center since my now 12 year old was 3. We returned when my twins were old enough to attend school. As a working parent it is comforting knowing my children are in safe hands and loved while I am not with them. I check in often on the live feed cameras that offer additional peace of mind in addition to daily updates from the app. The teachers are all friendly and receptive to feedback on how to best meet my girls needs. The teachers are patient and caring and my girls love going to school which to me makes a huge difference. My now two year olds can sign basic signs, learning Spanish words, and one is completely potty trained. Thank you to the director Erica and her amazing staff for loving my girls.
I am incredibly grateful for the wonderful experience my child has at this daycare. From the very beginning, we felt welcomed, supported, and truly valued as a family. The Director is exceptional. She is warm, professional, and always available to answer questions or provide guidance. You can see how much she cares—not just about the children, but also about creating a positive environment for parents and staff. Her leadership sets the tone for the entire center, and it shows in the way everything runs smoothly and with so much heart. The Assistant Director is just as amazing. She is patient, kind, and always willing to go the extra mile. Whether it’s helping with transitions, communicating updates, or simply offering a reassuring smile during drop-off, she makes every parent feel at ease. Her dedication truly shines through in her daily interactions. Together, the Director and Assistant Director make a phenomenal team. Their love for the children, attention to detail, and strong leadership create a daycare environment that feels safe, structured, and full of joy. I couldn’t be happier or more confident in the care my child receives here.
As a parent, I am truly grateful for the amazing care and education my child receives at this school. My son absolutely loves coming every day, and I can see how much he’s growing socially and academically. His Early Preschool teacher, Ms. Tati, is incredible—she is patient, nurturing, and genuinely dedicated to her students. You can tell she loves what she does, and it makes a huge difference in the classroom environment. The communication with families is excellent, the activities are engaging, and the staff always makes us feel welcomed and supported. I couldn’t be happier with our experience here. Highly recommended! 🌟
This may be a long post but is absolutely. At La Petite Academy of Niceville, our family felt welcomed with open arms, creating a loving and friendly atmosphere that truly fosters a sense of belonging. The dedicated staff and director played a pivotal role in my son's development, significantly enhancing his growth through a thoughtfully designed curriculum tailored to his needs. Their readiness to assist during our transition between duty stations was incredibly reassuring. From day one, the staff displayed remarkable attentiveness and were overly communicative, keeping us informed and involved in our son's progress. They identified specific programs that catered to his developmental milestones. Initially, my son struggled with communication and restroom use, but within just four weeks, they developed a structured schedule that tremendously improved his bathroom independence. The patience, understanding, and nurturing attitude of the team at La Petite Academy made all the difference in my son's life. Their commitment to ensuring each child's growth and well-being sets them apart as a truly exceptional child development center.
La Petite is amazing. Our daughter has such a great time there and an amazing relationship with the staff. Every employee has always greeted me and my daughter first thing in the morning, they make an effort to learn everyone’s name, and they have always worked with us when it comes to payment or refunds. It is so nice to finally have my daughter in a place where her safety is a priority. Her past daycare here in Niceville would grant access to her by someone who is not even related to her. It is such a relief La Petite will abide by parent’s wishes and takes concerns to heart.
