La Petite Academy on Taylor Park Drive

"100% 100% agree with michelle's words. Because the teacher did the same thing to my kids. 1. Make sure you watch the cameras 2. Make sure you look over your child daily 3. Make sure you ask for the copy of the incident report. If your child is hurt and you get nothing, request one. 4. Never for one moment think it can't happen to you. 5. Record conversation for liability. They will gaslight you. Even the Director will do nothing. Make sure you stay on top of everything. Children are the most precious gift and this daycare has failed to see that. Be careful and follow your instincts. 4years old.. The employees... Pulling children down by their arms aggressively. Grabbing a child's face very aggressively and squeezing hard while screaming in their face. Kicking a chair across the room and almost hitting children in the process. Laughing while the child is in time out and mocking them. Walking by while the child is being bit or hit by another child, fully seeing it and doing nothing and no incident report for your reference. If your child has adhd or a learning disorder or is hyperactive DONT send them here. They are NOT equipped to work with children like that and don’t make any effort to learn how, they simply kick them out. My child went here for 4mo and is no longer going there because i don’t want to deal with them anymore."

These are just a few things that happened and nothing was ever done by the Employee, Director or the main Director. She sided with the Daycare. Please keep this in mind while at or thinking about going to this Daycare. (Response) We tried to get ahold of someone higher up to report this issue. They sided with the daycare. If they had reviewed the cameras, they would have had to fire employees and the director for allowing this type of abuse to happen."

"I brought my infant son to La Petite for a week while visiting Lincoln for work. The Director, Vicky Jones, was very accommodating and made the paperwork process manageable on relatively short notice. The facility is secure and clean. The caregivers are so attentive and genuinely care for the children under their watch. Under normal circumstances I would have been nervous about leaving my son in a new place, but there was not one moment when I questioned whether he was in good hands. Both my son and I are looking forward to our next trip to La Petite!"

"We searched for a preschool that met all of our needs: safety, security, friendly and competent teachers, clean environment, and good communication. After trying out 2 private preschools in Lincoln and being extremely dissatisfied, we decided to take a chance on La Petite. We have been so incredibly pleased! Most importantly, parents are welcome at any time. Believe it or not, the previous private preschool we tried told us explicitly that we weren't welcome without advance notice! Second, the teachers are warm, friendly, caring, and qualified. Our daughter has loved every teacher she has had at La Petite. Finally, the communication is superb. We feel like we are known and cared about as a family and that is the most important thing of all. We will miss La Petite as our daughter graduates from Pre-K this year. Thank you to all of the wonderful teachers and administrators for caring for our daughter so well!"

"La Petite has been a great experience for our daughter! She loves the toddler teachers, Candice and Gloria. They always do a wonderful job of documenting her day so we know what she is learning from day to day. They also give her the love and attention that she deserves! All of the staff are very friendly and helpful! We would recommend La Petite to everyone!"
