La Petite Academy on N. Thornydale Rd, Tucson AZ

We LOVE this location of La Petite! My baby leaves happy every day she goes! Staff are wonderful and attentive, they use watch me grow, so I can login at anytime and see what my little girl is up to! Staff are so loving and anytime my baby is having a hard day they scoop her right up and give her love (as well as other children as I’ve noticed on the website) they have responded timely any time I have a question or issue! So so thankful for everyone who works here! I recommend 100%!

La Petite is horrible. Their teachers there just seem like like they take care of the kids, but they dont! This is just one of worst daycares I have went too. I would rather go to my school's summer school then here. It just sucks and I wish I have never went here. La petite please inprove your school.

This place is a joke. The director is a clown. Ratios are always off, kids are always getting hurt left and right and no actions are ever taken, Rules are always being broke. The infant teacher Glenda is a PSYCHOPATH and should be under immediate evaluation. I have personally heard her THREATEN children and seen her myself be rough handed with small infants. I would never bring my child here. I feel awful for the families that have children here.

1 star definitely due to the communication with the daycare. When it comes to your child, communication about anything is everything. Kid throws up.let us know. Kid gets hurt bad.let us know. THE BIGGEST reason for the 1 star is the teacher to kid ratio. I have walked in and there is either 1-2 adults watching over 15-20 kids. Now if that doesn’t sound like a big deal fine what if your kid was the one crying in the corner? Wasn’t mine, but I can tell you that I’ve seen that so many times. Adult to kid ratio is not right. If your kid is newborn, sure take them here. Once they start walking.take them out. That’s what we did. I don’t blame the staff. I blame the their practices.

The teacher's in the infant rooms are amazing! They take such good care of the babies. Glenda, Angie, April, and Savannah are great. My daughter started going there from 3 months until she turned 1. I always felt that she was in good hands and she loved her teachers. With that being said the toddlers room is horrible! They don't pay attention to the kids and are so rude! My child was only with the toddler's for 1 week and it was the worst experience.

I disenrolled my child for numerous reasons the place is always chaotic and loud. And the children do not have any educational structure. They basically just babysit all day long. They also charge you $10 a week to provide your own diapers! I was extremely disappointed in the entire experience here and recommend you look elsewhere if you wish for your child to have an early educational experience.
