La Petite Academy of Orange Park

The teachers here are amazing they share a close relationship with the parents in helping each child succeed, my daughter has been attending since VPK and she gets excited going everyday. The hardest part was trusting someone with my infant son and when he started they sent pictures and I knew that he was getting fed and changed with the app they offer which put my mind at ease. I would recommend La Petite Academy off U.S 17 to anyone.

Will leave your child in diaper all day, then try and gaslight you about it. Do not go anywhere near here, they don't want to make it right only point fingers at someone else.

My son loved this place at first, but after the first month his favorite teacher left, and then he moved on to the toddler room. He really didn't seem to like it after that. I wish we had listened to his cues and pulled him out earlier. They gave him egg noodles even though he is very allergic to eggs. Then on his last day, he developed hand foot mouth disease right afterwards, thereby preventing him from starting his new day care. And also messing up my husband's and my own schedule for the week. Not to mention, I am expecting and now terrified of contracting it myself. The director is great, but she really needs to get a handle on her inexperienced staff.

The "WORSE" ever! The children learn nothing and for 325.00 a week, they should at least teach them more. My 1 year old came home with a cold every week and twice the flu and they told us , his immune system needs to adapt but yet we were still charged for the week he was out. Was not happy at all

My child came home with bruises and shiners on his legs every day and no one gave us an explanation. They said they had no idea he was an IEP student although they were told multiple times. My child loved all his daycares except this one. My mom wondered why he would cry to NOT go to this one. Now I know. So sorry my child experienced this place, but my mom thought it was better since they're so expensive.

My daughter Mya is in the toddler room , she LOVES it there. Ms. Kelly is great with her, I love that she took the time to care and love my daughter. I appreciate all the teachers but Ms Kelly will always have a place in my heart. My daughter is currently leaving , I just hope she finds a great teacher like her. The staffs are great! I DEFINITELY recommend this daycare

My son is in the toddler room & he has an absolute blast! Healthy and diverse foods for breakfast, lunch , & snack! Great napping schedule! Also such a wonderful team who take care of him! Definitely recommend this daycare for your growing little ones!!

I found La Petite online while searching for the best daycare for my daughter .. I was able to walk in and get a tour of the academy and was INSTANTLY impressed. Security here is top notch! And through their app, you will get notifications throughout your day about your kiddos, what they ate,when They go potty & even if they get a boo-boo! I love La Petite so much that I now bring my son here for afterschool services ! I have said it before and I'll say it again, I am team La petite for life !

My children attend this school and they love it. The policies enforced are amazing and definitely keep my children safe. The brightwheel app is also amazing, I receive updates daily about my children. The management team also has great communication skills and handle all my needs promptly. Thank you so much for caring for my kiddos.

I LOVE LOVE Dana and most of the teachers at this daycare. HOWEVER, if you are potty training, this isn't the place to have your toddler. Tonight I opened a bag with my grand daughter's shorts and underware that were also FULL of the poopy she likely told the teacher she needed to do. The problem is....toddlers use potty as an attention tool and after not going a few times, the teacher ignores and ends up with pants full of potty or worse, poopy! Not acceptable by any means and when I inquired, I was told it was certainly acceptable. That their policy is if they can get some of it to fall off, they will but this obviously was not the case today. They can't put the pants or panties in the toilet or sink for health or sanitary reasons but they can throw clothes away (did this two days ago) without checking or send a bag home full of crapola! Sad because like I said earlier, they are great in other areas. The older class teacher needs to actually figure out how to structure the older kids but from infant to probably kindergarten, the teachers are caring and kind and Dana, the Director, gets to know these kids almost as though they are all her own. Saddens me to resort to a negative review but might save another parent some frustration of changing centers!
