La Petite Academy

Incredible. We have both kids here, infant class and PreK, the older one has been at La Petite over 2 years. Every teacher is sweet, compassionate and supportive of each child’s experience/developmental milestones. There’s excellent communication through the app and parent conferences to discuss how the child is doing. At any given time, the teacher and the leadership know exactly what kind of day your child is having. My 4 year old is thriving, being challenged academically in play based learning and he has so many great friends, his teacher Ms. Rocio works hard on lesson plans that keep the kids interested and laughing. Ms. Rita always has a cracker for the kids who don’t want to leave mom/dad in the morning for an easier transition. Ms. Sara, infant class, feels like I’m leaving my baby with her other mom, I can’t tell you how comforting that is. Ms. Jessica and Ms. Rebecca (leadership) are so involved, kind and knowledgeable. La Petite is expensive but you get what you pay for and I wouldn’t hesitate to send any child here for a loving, supportive experience.

We’ve been taking our son to la petit in ventura since he was 10 months old. It’s been fantastic. It was difficult on my wife and I to come to terms with dropping him off somewhere when we had to return to work, the staff, communication and access to cameras made it easier for us. Teachers are very attentive and caring. The school makes it easy on parents, great hours and they provide food / diapers / potty training / lots of outside time etc. If you have to put your child in daycare this is a great place. 👍🏼👍🏼

Overcrowded and understaffed. The child to teacher ratio unmanageable. Classrooms are loud and chaotic. The staff are all running on fumes. They don't answer the phone or return messages. Communication with parents and amongst themselves is dismal. Until they can properly staff themselves, seek care for your child elsewhere.

La Petite has provided our family the best daycare experience. The structure and lessons that they implement have advanced our child greatly. The teachers are wonderful, the admin staff is approachable and flexible; over all, it’s so safe. I love the security and the ability to watch live video streaming. Thank you La Petite!

I cannot say enough about how WONDERFUL this school is. My children are absolutely happy, healthy and thriving here. I have had several experiences with other care centers, and they fall very,very short of the care, and dedication to learning- provided by La Petite. They have an app that updates me -straight to my phone via email-each time my child basically does anything, also it sends me pictures and keeps me in the loop of daily activities. The food they provide for the children throughout the day is wholesome and from what I can gather -organic, and GASP my SON who is the world's pickiest eater- actually EATS it with enjoyment!!! From day one-Tina, the administrator, has been genuinely caring, patient and is always willing and open to discuss any concerns. Miss Monica as well as all of the teachers actually, are excellent with my children, and have been more of a teacher and friend -vs just someone who simply "babysits" the kids. Main thing is- It is a huge relief while working to know that my children are safe, well looked after, and LEARNING.
