What parents say
My son has been attending this daycare for a month now, and our experience has been great so far. He adjusted really well. The staff is very caring and kind. I also love getting updates about his day and being able to see him whenever I want. It gives me peace of mind knowing he is doing well and being taken good care of.
Liliia Hnytka · 5/5 on Google · 6 months agoWe’ve had a wonderful experience with this daycare. My older child attended from 1.5 to 3 years old, and my younger one from 3 months to 1 year. The staff is warm, attentive, and truly caring and kept us updated regularly. They made us feel completely comfortable leaving a 3-month-old in their care. My older child thrived, learned so much, and built great friendships. The environment is clean, safe, and welcoming.…
Andrea Katherine Sánchez Gómez · 5/5 on Google · 6 months agoMy granddaughter has been going here for 5 years and she refuses to go anywhere else. Lucy adores Miss Angela and all of her friends that she has been growing up with. I feel that she is safe, engaged and cared for when she is there. Great communication and feedback. We love our La Petit teachers!!!
Renee Harbison · 5/5 on Google · 6 months agoWe truly appreciate the care this daycare provides to us. My kiddo enjoys going every day, which gives me a lot of peace of mind as a parent. I especially like that outdoor time is part of the daily routine. Since starting here, my child has made great progress with eating habits and nap time. The consistency and guidance from the staff have really helped build those routines.
