Also enrolled my son at the sme time when he was 4 months old, infant room absolutely amazing. Sadly when he turned 1 August 1st, he went to the 1 year old toddler room, in 8 weeks he has had many incident reports. 5-6 times he has been bitten, bruises, and scrapes on his head. In 4 days he has been bitten on his back, scraped the top of his head, bruise center of forehead, bruise on the side of his head. I now have dcf investigating, he is clearly not being looked after. Want to see pictures, look me up and ask. I feel so aweful thinking to give it time, they will get it fixed, my mistake. The biting policy is not being enforced.

I wanted to wait a while to give an accurate review. My kids have been here for about 6 months. My kids last daycare really traumatized my youngest son. This daycare was so patient with him, they allowed him to be himself and expressed himself and got him so comfortable that he asks to "come to school". My daughter dont wanna leave this school when I pick her up lol and that says a lot. They keep you updates on potty changes, when their eating, or if their not having a good day. I feel so comfortable leaving my kids here.

I wish I could give 10 stars! Most professional, kind, caring, etc. group of individuals! Our daughter started here at 3 months and I was so nervous, however they communicate daily and are very responsive when asking questions. They take the time to care for your child like they are their own! Tammy, Carol, Porcha, and Alexis specifically cared for our child. Knowing your child enjoys them just as much as they do is such a tell! My child had a smile on her face at drop off and pick up! We’d still be there if we hadn’t moved. Highly recommend.

After finding out many things about this place and the teachers I changed my review and I'm glad I took my child out from this school.

My daughter went to VPK here and it was a great experience that stuck with her in following years. Her teachers as well as management were nurturing, skillful educators. My communication with them was, (and still is) pleasant, informative and expedient when needed. Moreover, my daughter left their VPK program well prepared for school. I commend the overall quality of childcare the children receive there.

Loved the staff at LaPetite. My son went there and I’m considering the new baby, too. The fact so many of the management team and staff have been there for years shows their dedication to teaching. The facility was always clean and run efficiently. I picked up a happy kid every day!

I just saw someone driving a bus with your name on it on San Pablo Rd. She didn't see cars moving in front of her, nor did she notice the traffic building up behind her. She was at a complete near 2 elementary schools texting.
