Description: La Petite Academy provides children with the tools they need to be successful in the classroom and beyond. Our child-care programs offer a strong curriculum, focusing on school readiness. Our dedicated and highly trained educators teach more than just reading, writing and arithmetic by creating active learning experiences around character building, physical activity and social and emotional development.
Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.
