  • We have absolutely loved our grandson Zander getting to go here during the K-5 after-school program. He has loved making new friends. We love the care that he has been getting and excited to see the Summer Camp Program coming up. We also have enjoyed all the little events the staff and director have thrown each month and letting us families get to be involved in our children's care! We love La Petite!!!

  • My husband and I were very skeptical, especially when choosing a day care for our baby (I especially) this day care has been wonderful. I was able to tour the school,meet his teachers beforehand, which was so helpful. I love howthings are done online. You get updates through an app you’re able to make payments through the app and that to me is awesome. The most important thing to me was how friendly everyone was how well they’ve taken care of my baby this far by the way this is his first week so I was an emotional wreck. Having an access to check on my child throughout the day has made Daycare a great experience with the both of us so far we’re both still adjusting with me being back to work and him being around new people but so far it’s been great. The director has been awesome communicates well and both of my son’s teachers have been amazing so far. I’m very thankful for having such an awesome experience this far.

  • We have a 3 year old and a 12 month old currently enrolled here and have nothing but good things to say about the teachers we’ve had in each class! Between Tessa, Cindy, Linda, Abby, Audera, Kristin, Grace, Heather, and Jrae I feel like our boys are safe and taken care of. The teachers all truly care about the kids and it shows. They offer camera access to assigned classrooms (this is awesome), well rounded meals, diapers, and a lot of learning opportunities through planned curriculum appropriate to your child’s age. All of our teachers are great communicators and keep us up to date on daily activities and alert us if anything happens. We plan on being with la petite for a long time and recommend them to any family with young kids looking for a safe and friendly environment!

  • Our family loves this location! All negative comments that have been seen on this page have been addressed and there are worse things in life than mild inconveniences that happen at every daycare across the country. We love the cameras, and there is no cut off period unless your child is checked out for the day. There are black boxes around the diaper change areas for every child’s privacy and you cannot take screenshots on the app for an added layer of privacy. The teachers genuinely care about the children in each classroom and we have had no difficulties in communication with school leadership or my child’s teacher whatsoever. They do their best each day and have to follow state guidelines on everything they do (which they cannot control). We love all the teachers we have come in contact with including: Cindy, Grace, Kristin, Abby, Tessa, Heather, Julia, Linda, and Audera has done a fantastic job stepping up to the Director role.

  • My daughter started this week and the process to enroll was simple. The teachers have been amazing and so kind. Ms Tess is great and her other teacher whose name I can’t remember unfortunately as we’re new. The ability to check the cameras through the day is a big plus as well.

    Brooke WilliamsDec 12, 2025
  • Our kiddo has been going to this daycare since he was 3 months old. I have always felt safe leaving him with the variety of teachers we have met over the years but I know he is well loved by his current teachers & he loves them! I have entrusted this daycare to provide good care and will continue to do so.
