We have tried La Petite twice now. The first time my daughter was a toddler. She loved it and looked forward to going every day until they fired both of her teachers on the same day.Then she cried at the mention of going in. I entrusted my daughters care for nearly a year to two people and apparently neither of them were qualified to be trusted. She was about to switch rooms, so we decided to stick it out. Her new teacher was so mean to her. She would never say anything positive about our daughter at all. They were to do a t-shirt craft for mothers day. Our daughter had everything there, but was made to sit in the corner instead of participating. No reason could be given as to why this was done. Fast forward 2 years. We thought we would give it one more try. Management had changed, our daughter is in preschool and we have a toddler son. They love the teachers (again). They are learning a ton (again). We have no been back for 2 weeks and apparently were told completely wrong information upon enrolling. Our tuition from the start is not what we signed up for and today I got a letter saying it is raising still. I made the payment for our deposit and our first week online. Received a confirmation email. The next Monday I was charged a late fee for not paying. WHAT?!?! I explained that i payed online, but apparently the money was lost and I was forced to pay again. Our account is still not right. Every day this week our balance has showed a different amount. I dont know about you, but when I work hard for my money I am not willing to throw it away to a place that doesnt know how to keep track of it. In short, you can find something better. Whether its the teachers or the management, La Petite apparently cant offer the whole package. Its actually pretty sad. They could be a great place to turn to if they could just figure out what the heck is going on!

La Petite Academys teachers are like my childrens family. We live in a different state than the rest of our family so finding quality care for my two boys (both under 2) was a huge concern for me. I wanted them to feel part of a family and loved everyday when I went to work. I can say without a doubt that the teachers at the Beavercreek location truly LOVE what they do and they LOVE the children they work with. My boys greet their teachers the same way they do their grandparents because they are just so special to them. I work sometimes 10 hours a day and dont feel the angst that I know a lot of working moms do because I know how much my boys love going to "school" everyday. They are so well taken care of and you see it on their faces when they arrive each day. My two year old begins cheering when we pull up in the parking lot of the school. It makes me so happy to know that even when I cant be there to hold and cuddle with my boys and teach them so many incredible skills that there is an incredible team of teachers who truly love them as if they were their own. As a teacher, it broke my heart to keep them from school last summer and I know they missed it too. We even went to visit after my second son was born just because my older one missed his friends and his teachers so much. I cant say enough incredible things about the women at La Petite Academy Beavercreek. If anyone is considering a place for their kids, it must be this one. I told them that a daycare opened up literally 2 blocks from my house and I didnt even want to look at it because I am so happy with La Petite and its teachers. Thank you for being a family to my boys! We love and appreciate all that you do everyday - and with beautiful smiles to boot! Thank you!

My family has been very pleased with the quality care La Petite Academy has to offer. The Director, Miss Staci is such a warm, welcoming individual and you can tell she takes pride in her school. The staff are very caring and nurturing and greet me and my daughters every morning. Miss Kelsey, the Pre K teacher and Miss LIsa the Preschool teacher have taught my girls so much in the 3 days they are there. There are many developmental activities planned each week and the fact that they provide a morning and afternoon snack as well as lunch is extremely convenient. I would highly recommend this school to anyone looking for quality care!

I LOVE LaPetite Academy in Beavercreek! I have had all 5 of my kids with them for over 20 years! I love how the teachers take pictures of the kids doing their activities! They post these pictures all over the center and then send them home (great scrapbooking material). Plus, when the kids do an art project, the teachers attach what they said while making the project. I got one today. My little one had pasted magazine pictures on a paper. The phrase attached was, "Look what I did"! I appreciate the time and effort in making these treasures!

We have been with La Petite Academy for four years now and are continually pleased with our decision. As a parent it can be difficult to leave your children (especially a tiny 6 week old) in the hands of strangers but at LPA I am certain they are well cared for. They have also been accommodating regarding special instructions and dietary restrictions. I recommend La Petite Academy to anyone looking for good, quality care like your would give your children yourself!
