La Petite Academy of Merriam

"We’ve been at this La Petite Academy for over a year. My kiddo loves his teacher and has made lots of special friends. It’s easy to tell everyone in the school cares deeply about the kiddos. There are many long-time employees which gives great stability for the little ones. I love getting updates throughout the day on the app!"

"Our daughters (now 5 and 3) both started here at 10-12 weeks old, and this place was a godsend! Visiting potential daycares before my first was born, this La Petite stood out because it was obviously a cheerful and fun place yet organized and adherent to rules for child safety (especially infants). Plus, Director Jill and numerous other teachers have been there for years. Day care centers are expensive, but what this one provides was essential with our demanding full-time jobs -- they are there 6:30 to 6 every day, never take snow days, only close for the biggest holidays, and share pix and updates for diapers/bottles and other activities through a nifty app. Our girls have been SO happy here, learned so much and been very loved."

"I absolutely love the teachers here! I have a 3 yr old and a 1 year old and their teachers are amazing. The school is extremely clean and has a welcoming environment. The Director really cares and you can tell! I highly recommend this center to anyone looking for a safe, clean and nurturing environment for their little ones!"

"I have been depending on La Petite Academy for years, for my kids childcare needs. This is my first time experience at this location. My son has been here since he could walk...funny story to that...but we love this place! Jill and Karen are the best and are ALWAYS there to help with any questions, or concerns a parent may have. My son always, on a daily basis talks about previous teachers Miss Sheeka (that would be "his" name for her), Miss Yolanda. And now his new teacher...Miss Antoinette. Thanks so much to you all for everything you do on a daily basis...you are APPRECIATED!!!"
