He stayed at La Petite until he started kindergarten and built such loving and supportive relationships with his teachers over the years. He was well prepared, even ahead of the game, when it came to kindergarten readiness. My daughter started attending at 6 months old. She loves the friends and teachers she has here and looks forward to coming to see them each day. I feel so comfortable knowing my kids are happy and thriving in this environment. Teachers genuinely care about the kids, practice conscious discipline and Montessori techniques, and guide children through play-based learning to achieve new skills and knowledge at each level of development. Kids get plenty of outside play time when the weather is nice and even have their own garden! As a professor of child development and as a mother I can't recommend La Petite of St. Joseph enough

She has filled up her…read morepersonal life with so much stuff that she is unable to run her school to the standards it use to be at. The teachers dress like they don't have jobs (sleep pants, yoga pants, tang tops, and slippers). There staff turn over is ridiculous! They never have the same teacher in a classroom for very long. They leave themselves out of ratio all the time and never have the amount of staff they need for the amount of children they have. They will always sent kids home sick to maintain ratio so the director doesn't have to step in. The building is very dirty and ran down. The overall feeling of this place is negative!
