We couldn’t be happier with La Petite and the leadership at La Petite Tanque Verde. Christie, the Director is incredibly friendly, approachable, and always willing to help. She is genuinely supportive of our children’s individual needs, and it truly shows how much pride she takes in her work. That care and dedication clearly extend to her staff as well — the teachers are all amazing, attentive, and kind. Our kids are always excited when they know they are going to school to see their friends and their favorite teachers. It’s reassuring to know our children are in such a positive, well-run environment.
Both our daughter and our son have been at the La Petite Tanque Verde location since they were both 3 months old, my daughter is in kindergarten now and my son is now 2 1/2 and still currently attends. We have nothing but the best things to say about this location, they are very open, honest and each teacher I have had the pleasure of interacting with throughout the years have been so nice and friendly! Ms. Christie, who is the director, has run this location for many years now and we cannot say enough how much we appreciate her consistency and her ability to hire exceptional and trustworthy teachers! Ms. Courtney who runs the infant class, took care of both of our children as infants and made the transition of leaving (even as hard as it was as a first time mom) our babies so seamless and not worrisome whatsoever! Each classroom has been very communicative and they are very easy to get ahold of through their app while you are away. We knew and still know that our kids have always been in good hands! We have recommended this location to many of our friends, who have also enrolled their children as well. I could honestly go on forever about our experiences with this location and each classroom our children have been in but I will just leave it with, your children are in amazing and trustworthy hands! :)
La Petite has been an amazing experience for our family! 4 years ago when I needed to find childcare for my son it was no question where he would attend. My daughter's were enrolled 8 years ago and the experience was phenomenal which brought me back. (With the same director and multiple long term teachers.) I believe their wonderful variety of family style meals has lead to my children's willingness and desire to try new foods and eat all sorts of veggies. The educational prep for Kinder allowed them to more than exceed but excel in school. Having a special needs child as well, the team has always been inclusive and gone above and beyond to accommodate and include. This centers director and teachers are amazing at what they do. They are family centered and throughout the year offer wonder extracurricular activities and family events. I go out of my way and pass other centers for the experience this center provides. I highly recommend La Petite at Tanque Verde if you need long term or back up care!! Thank you!!
The staff at La petite on tanque verde are amazing! My child has been going there since she was 6 months old and I have had a great experience with La Petite. From the moment I walk in I’m always greeted with a friendly hello and to the moment I pick up my child I always enjoy talking with the staff. They always address any questions I have and put on fun seasonal events for the kids. Both ( ms. Christie and ms.Kristie) really go above and beyond for these kids at daycare! All staff are friendly and I would highly recommend la petite.
I am very comfortable leaving my child at La Petite TV . Christie and Kristie are amazing — they are always so positive and welcoming, listen to my child and also myself and truly put families first. Communication is always very professional and clear so I understand and it’s obvious how much they value the children and staff. We are lucky to have been blessed with not only Christie and Kristie but most of the caregivers .
