Both of our children have attended La Petite in Crystal Lake. Our daughter is in 2nd grade and still talks about her time in Miss Robyn’s room. Our son is currently in Miss Robyn’s room and loves having her as a teacher. She is so engaging and positive and wonderful with the children!
TaylorMay 11, 2026My family has had an absolutely great experience here. From day one, we’ve loved the atmosphere — it’s welcoming, organized, and just feels right the moment you walk in. The staff has been consistently kind, attentive, and genuinely caring. You can tell they take pride in what they do, and that makes a huge difference as a parent. The level of security also gives real peace of mind, which is something we value a lot. We’ve also been really impressed with the educational curriculum and the structure it provides. It’s clear that there’s a strong focus on both learning and development, not just childcare. The meal selections and flexibility they offer have also been a big plus for our family. Most importantly, our daughter absolutely loves it here — and that says everything. We’re really grateful to be part of this community.
Matthew MoserApr 20, 2026The flexibility in hours and safety is enough for me to rate this place 5 stars. The staff at this facility is truly amazing. You can tell they care about each and every kid and are attentive to each individual’s needs. Ms. Robyn exceeds expectations and our kiddo loves going to class. Highly recommend this daycare!
Dennis EngJan 27, 2026Such a wonderful daycare! My kids loved it here — great teachers who truly felt like family, fun classrooms, and an excellent curriculum. Sherry and Nadine are amazing directors and truly care about the kids and families. Highly recommend!
S SDec 30, 2025We have used La Petite over the last 7 years. Both as a full time daycare and now as back up care on non school days when we have to work. They have always been amazing and stay in contact with us as needed/requested. They’re also located in the Praire Grove school district which is great for kiddos in early education as the bus will pick up there! We highly recommend them to anyone looking for daycare in the area!
Debbie GlassmanDec 29, 2025I am thrilled to share my experience with La Petite in Crystal Lake, where my two teenagers attended when they were young. From the moment we enrolled, it was clear that this was a special place. Nadine, the director, brings an incredible warmth and dedication to her role. She has a natural ability to create a nurturing environment that truly feels like a second home for the children. Her leadership ensures that every child is treated with love and respect, fostering both their growth and happiness. Sherry, the assistant director, complements Nadine perfectly with her enthusiasm and creative approach to childcare. Her engaging and positive demeanor made every day fun. Together, they create a team that genuinely cares about the well-being and development of every child. I can't express how grateful I am for the foundation they provided for my children. They learned, played, and made wonderful memories during their time at La Petite. I wholeheartedly recommend this daycare center to any parent looking for a loving and stimulating environment for their little ones.
