La Petite Academy on Emerald Glade

"I've always been real cautious as to who/where my 4 children are with/at all times. My youngest is two years old and has been at La Petite for a year and a half now. I was incredibly hesitant about putting him in as it was my first full-time childcare experience. -They offer brightwheel which has been such a great communication tool and I'm able to see pictures/videos of him throughout the day. -There are video cameras running all day which allow management to ensure a safe environment. -The staff has always been great and my baby loves each of them and knows them by first name basis. There is not a high turnover which tells you the staff is happy themselves. Its always a warm welcome....every day! -Educational curriculum is seriously incredible. They incorporate a weekly calendar to give parents an opportunity to prepare/recap at home. My two year old knows how to count to 30 by himself; he recognizes his alphabet/colors/shapes with no help. His vocabulary and self awareness is just off the charts. -During Covid they took appropriate precautions to protect the kids livelihood and put their own interests aside. Kuddos for their great service and support during such a difficult time. I love this place and appreciate everyone in it."

"My husband and I began fostering for the first time recently and we visited this La Petite and loved the staff. They were extremely helpful from the beginning and making sure we were enrolled and stayed up to date with everything going on at the school. My foster son loved his teachers and the friends he made while attending. I would recommend to anyone looking for a daycare around the Sea World area!"

"La Petite is convenient located near where we reside and my son has been attending since he was 6 weeks old and will now be 3. I am entirely pleased with the attentiveness he receives. I was very apprehensive going back to work and leaving him the whole day with "strangers", but that quickly changed when I saw him interact with the teachers. He looks forward to seeing the teachers, learning new songs/dances/activities, and is loved by younger and older kids. I have watched my son grow and his knowledge amazes me each and everyday. I absolutely love how all the Staff know my sons name and MY name and that matters to me because it makes me feel that they take the time to know you and it's not just about your money. I appreciate how very informative the Staff is when its a Bad Weather day by contacting us the night before and the day of by phone and email. I couldn't be more pleased and appreciative of the Ladies and Gentlemen who care for my son."

"La Petite Academy has been great for our family. They have helped our kids grow and develop every day through great learning activities. The staff has always put our kids and their needs first. Even when a situation arises they seem to notify us promptly, and at the end of the day have the details ready for us. Our kids truly enjoy attending class there, and love their teachers. When we had our kids at a previous daycare it was difficult to leave them due to the fact that our daughter never felt comfortable or at home there. Here she looks forward to school each and every day, and I know I owe it all to the staff. They make sure to treat us like family every day always welcoming us with a smile and a cheerful "Good Morning!", and a "Goodbye, see you tomorrow!!" at the end of the day. Thanks La Petite staff, we greatly appreciate everything you do for our kids."
