La Petite Academy of Miami

I put my 2 year old daughter in this school for two reasons; first, they have cameras inside the school that I can access, and secondly they are 2 minutes away from my home. I had read the reviews on Yelp and I knew it wasn't going to be great but I decided to give them a chance because maybe I wouldn't run into the problems other people have; but I did. My daughter has attended 6 weeks in total but she was sick for two weeks therefore her experience there was only within a 4 week timeframe. My daughter was bit 3 times and (twice in one week( and I saw a child grab a toy and hit her on the head twice and of course the teachers back was turned so my daughter was just there crying as I was watching all of this through the camera. I quickly called this incident in and of course they're only good at one thing... apologizing... that's it, but nothing changes. All you get is an apology and nothing changes in the classroom or with the staff. They definitely defend their staff so don't bother saying anything. The reality is there is only one teacher for 11 toddlers and they really can't do it all but for the amount of money they charge they really should do better at least when it comes to the safety of a child. Every time my daughter got bit they would say it wasn't the same child and they can't give that information which I understand but let's analyze this. Could this be true? I doubt it. The problem is that two out of the three bites they didn't see and failed to report to me so when I brought them up they once again just apologize but in the end it shows how unsupervised this classroom is regardless of all the incidents. You would think they would keep a closer eye on my daughter since she's been a victim of several bites but that's not the case. My daughter went to another daycare and I never had this problem. They were excellent and the only reason I took her out was because it's far from my home. It's frustrating trying to find new daycares and also it's not good to change them so often but how many bites does it take? I'm definitely not gonna hang around any longer to find out. This school looks great on the outside and inside but lacks the most important thing for a parent and that is supervision. If my daughter was properly supervised she would not have been bit so many times in such a short period of time. I understand biting happens with toddlers but my daughter will not be the victim over and over again.

Roxanne Director and Enid Assistant manager are s great authentic care professionals.nGreat communication! Clean and happy staff. Great location. My son learned a lot from infant to vpk. He was ready and even made long term friends from attending. He's now 10. Wattended to his allergies needs and asthma too. Great experience!

As a first time parent I was so nervous to put my baby anywhere. I finally toured La petite academy, and it was beautiful and CLEAN. It is one of the pricier ones in the area, but non even came close in comparisons.nMy once shy, defiant, son has really blossomed in the 6 months he’s been in this preschool. The teachers seem to really care for him and genuinely love what they do. And I feel like they are establishing a strong foundation for him academically for the future.nnThey are very understanding that I have a difficult work schedule and can’t volunteer often, and still make sure my son is equally included in all events.nnI’m so grateful for my experience this far.

Absolutely love this place. Staff is very helpful and amazing they really do go above and beyond for their families. The facility is very clean and always look nice. I have three kids going here and I have never had a issue with any of the staff members or felt concern that my kids weren't in good hands. If you are new to the area or a new parent and looking for a great daycare for your kids . This is the place for you and your kids.

This place is the greatest. I had tried several places before. I recently Moved to Florida and was kind of lost into what Daycare will be right to put my kids into. I wasn't sure what I was going to do and I was about to just give up. Then I call here . They were very open to accepting my 4 kids even knowing one of them will required special needs. They worked with me and made every effort to make them and me comfortable there. Words aren't enough to express my gratitude toward all of them.nI can say Im trying all the stages classes in that facility I have a 5,4,3 year old boys and 1 5 month baby I love the teachers.My kids smiles when we get there. I couldn't have found a better place to take my kiddos. I do recommend La petite to others I meet and will continue to do so. I being here 3 months I will review my comments later in time to give you guys updates.
