I have nothing but praise for this daycare. I have 2 small children, a 3 year old and a 8 month old. My toddler has been to 2 daycares (a private in-home and a smaller center) and this is my babies first daycare. There is no comparison when it comes to La Petite Academy! The facility is nice and clean. The teachers take the time to get to know my kids and their individual needs. They have also taken the time to get to know me, which has made such a difference. The center coordinator Nicole is very patient and friendly. She answers every question and ensures that I am comfortable. You cant put a price tag on the safety and care of your children, but the cost of this daycare is very comparable to the others in this area. I know my kids are so well taken care of. They use an app that updates me daily for my 3 year old with her meals and naps, sometimes they even include photos. For my son they have a sheet completely filled out with the times for everything he ate, every diaper change, and nap. They are fed well balanced meals and treated fairly amongst the other kids. When I pick them up, the teachers inform me of the days activities and my kids are happy and healthy. It makes the biggest difference in my own day having full confidence in their caretakers. Thank you La Petite Academy!

My four and six year old boys have been attending La Petite Academy the past year, and both my husband and I are extremely happy with the caretakers and the establishment. We have had experience in the preschool, pre-k and before/after school care, and feel that our boys are in the best care possible while we are at work. All of the teachers are caring and kind. They do fun experiments and crafts with the children, and have a great pre-education program. Our 6 year old started kindergarten ahead of his class due to their detailed preparation, and we are very grateful. They have an "open door" policy for parents, and actually encourage parent participation. The kids love to go to "school" there, and enjoy all of the teachers. My husband and I have peace of mind that they are in a very safe, fun learning environment. I would highly recommend La Petite Academy to anyone who is considering daycare/pre-education.

The assistant director Kim was very rude on the phone. I called, she asked why I was calling and I said I had questions about enrolling my daughter soon. she asked me to wait, had me on hold for over 5min, finally got back and didnt even say sorry for the long hold.. she literally got back from the hold and said "so why are you calling again." I asked about enrolling my daughter and she says theyre full and dont have anything open til maybe summer. I said ok and just when I was about to ask her more questions she just hung up on me. I called back furious and she said she thought I said bye. told her I want to talk to her director and with an attitude she said she wasnt available so Ill be calling back again to let her know how rude she was. Not a great first impression.

My daughter have been attending in La Petite for almost 2 yrs now and I have high praises for the staff members in this facility. My main concerns for my child when it comes to child care are I want a place that provides a well-organized, safety and fun environment. The stage of learning advancement of my child is awesome, especially the feedbacks Im getting from her teacher. The amazing reputation of La Petite are proven by word of mouth. The academy was recommended to me by my sister since her kids attended La Petite when they were younger. As a matter of fact, when my best friend was in need of a new daycare, I highly recommended La Petite to her. -Arlene

I would like to start off by saying that the La Petite of covington is wonderfull. My son Garin has been going there for around a 1 1/2 years. we have seen a tremendous change in him since he has been going there. The teachers really take the time to go one on one with the children and to teach them about respect and getting along with everyone around them. This place has helped us out of some really tough times because of schedules. Nicole Crosby has just been wonderful about everything. Nicole and the staff deserve a huge pat on the back for everything they do for our children. Thanks for making a difference in our children. Sincerely, Kelly and Pam

LPA is the best ever!! My son was having a very hard time adjusting to his new daycare, as well as Kindergarten. Nicole Crosbie was truly an angel. She helped both of us through a tough time. She let me ride the bus with my son to ease his tension, as well as went up to the school and checked on him at lunch time. SHE ACTUALLY TOOK TIME OUT OF HER DAY TO CHECK ON MY SON!! She than called me and gave me an update, to ease my tension and my heart. My son really likes the teachers at LPA. Josh is one of his favorites. Josh made it easy for my son to start enjoying his childcare experience. Thank you LPA!! YOU GUYS ROCK

Wonderful program and staff : Our two sons have been enrolled at La Petite in Covington for three years. We have been very pleased with this facility. We receive regular communication from the teachers and the director regarding our sons progress toward learning objectives and preparation for school. Our youngest will be going to kindergarten this fall. We appreciate the support from the teachers at La Petite in preparing him for the upcoming school year. If you are looking for an all day program, or just before / after school care, La Petite in Covington has a program that will be ideal for your needs.

Our children have been at this school for about 2 years and in the time there, the teachers and staff have become an extention of family to our kids. The school is very trust worthy, flexible and accomidating to the changing needs of our children. The kids have gained knowledge beyond what I had ever hoped for. My 2 year old is singing the alphabet and being potty trained, my 4 year old is doing addition and subtraction problems and learning how to read. We love this school. In short, they became a resource, a support system and above all a place where we trusted to care for our children.

My daughter has attended La Petite Covington for just over a year now. I love that they arent just a daycare, but the children learn while also having fun. Miss Laura in particular got potty training to click for my daughter. They allow for parents with flex job schedules to have a different care schedule every week which is very important for us. The only thing that would make them better in my eyes are to offer Saturday and Sunday care, I regularly work weekends, and the grandparents like to travel. I highly recommend La Petite Academy in Covington for your weekday childcare needs.

La Petite Covington was a wonderful place for our little boy. He thrived there and was very well cared for. We loved getting "art" from the school every week. The teachers and staff clearly have a passion for children and were obviously attentive. We had our son in La Petite Covington from 6mos (Infant room) - 15mos (Toddler room) through 2015 & 2016. We only moved him out due to a move - and it was hard to say goodbye to all the wonderful staff and teachers. Highly recommend.
