La Petite Academy on Baines Court

My daughter has been attending La Petite Academy for a little over 8 months now. She is currently enrolled in the Toddlers class, and I am truly amazed at how much she is learning while there. She at 1 ½ is far more advanced than my older children were at that age. She gets so excited to see her teachers and her friends every day. The staff is exceptional and always very prompt when asked questions. I love that there are cameras in the classrooms so I can check in on my little one throughout the day. I would recommend this center to friends and family.

I admitted my toddler (15 months old) to daycare. The first two days were okay as he was trying to cope with the new environment. However, we had a bitter experience on the third day, which led us to decide to change. Here are the good and bad things about this branch: Good: I liked the management. They did not over-commit anything during our tour. My baby has not yet learned to eat by himself, so I requested them to feed him if he got hungry. They tried that, and I am glad for it. Good: They have a range of activities for the toddler section. Also, the teacher-to-student ratio is 1:4, which is really good. Bad: One of the teachers tried to force-feed him on the third day. We were watching through the live cam as she tried to shove some food into my baby's mouth and pulled his arm when he tried to turn away. My baby was traumatized at that moment, and I think this is one of the main reasons we have not been able to leave him at any daycare since. That's the main reason I am giving it 1 star (it should be 0 stars for keeping such an impatient and ill-tempered person at work). Good: The management helped us transition to a new branch, which is really appreciated.

We love La Petite on Baines Court!! My child started at La Petite a little over a year ago and it has been a very positive experience for us all. The change in management has made a huge difference to the school as they are caring and supportive. The staff is very welcoming and loving towards my child and makes her feel safe and secure in her environment. I know La Petite has set my child up for success in Kindergarten.

My child has been enrolled at this school for 6 months now and we are SO happy with the care they are receiving. The teachers are so attentive and they are always doing fun activities and best of all learning! The new directors have been very supportive and helpful during our transition here and their communication is great. Feel like everyone in that school knows my child and our family.

Our family has had a great experience at La Petite. Our Skylar enjoys spending time with her friends and teachers everyday. The staff is actively engaged and invested in her growth and development. We are comfortable dropping her off everyday because we know that she is in a loving, caring, and safe environment. We are so thankful to Justina and her staff navigating the uncertain times of COVID-19 and making sure that all of the children had a healthy and safe place to come and learn. Her leadership was key to making her staff feel safe so that care could continue and consistency could continue for the children and parents.
