Parent Reviews
My daughter is a new student with L'Academy and we couldn't be happier. The center is brand new, incredibly clean and very convenient along the Burlingame/San Mateo border. We are new to the area and when looking for a daycare/preschool, we were trying to find an option that was receptive to feedback, diligently communicates updates, had a curriculum that was both logical and promoted all-around development, and had a Mandarin immerson program. A bonus is the school provides all meals (lunch and two snacks) made in-house. Our daughter, while only having attended for a bit over a week, is absolutely enjoying herself. Each day we receive multiple photo updates on her activities, incl. meals, and when she's had potty breaks. At the time of pickup/dropoff the teacher is always available to answer any questions or provide a general update on our daughter's development. I'd highly recommend L'Academy to anyone.
