Parent Reviews
Positive experience overall. Good communication both via phone, in-person, and with the app. Appreciate the videos and pictures sent throughout the day.
via lapetite.comMy son really thrives at LPA, he loves his teachers and staff genuinely. The center has given him a huge head start heading into kindergarten and now going into 1st grade I see how confident and excited he is in his learning abilities. Everyone at the center, especially his teachers, Ms. Martha, Ms. Wendie and Ms. Sarah are always friendly and professional. I trust LPA completely with my son!
via lapetite.comMy favorite thing is how all of the staff gently communication with the children. The environment they have created for the children is outstanding! All of the staff only want the best emotional and educational growth for the children. My children love it and ask every day when they wake up “Can I go to school today”? Sometimes this happens on Saturdays and I have to explain school is closed Saturdays. They love it and so do I!The staff at this location, especially the Director, has been extremely kind and helpful to my family and we truly appreciate all of their hard work and big hearts!
Exceptional Care and Learning at La Petite Kent Every day, our son starts his morning with a warm welcome and embrace from his amazing teacher, Miss Fariah. The connections he's built with his classmates and teachers are truly heartwarming; they've grown so strong that we often find ourselves participating in activities together outside of school.We initially enrolled our son at La Petite Kent to provide him with additional social interaction when he was about to turn two. Now, as he approaches his fifth birthday, we couldn’t be happier with our decision. Every class he’s been a part of has exceeded our expectations.We are especially grateful to the directors—Sara, Wendy, and Janae—who bring their deep experience, knowledge, and care to the school. Their empathetic approach ensures that every situation is handled thoughtfully and effectively.If we could, we’d give La Petite Kent ten stars! It’s been an amazing experience for our family, providing our son with a solid foundation.
