LA PETITE ACADEMY

Our original meeting with the director five months before my son was going to start school there went very well so we decided to apply. In the time between submitting our application and his first day they changed directors. Upon our arrival on his first day of care the director was shocked to see us and had no clue who my son was or that he was coming. She showed us to the nursery and then managed to dig his file out of somewhere, but never apologized. This is our first child and we're hesitant to send him to school and this experience left me with a terrible feeling as I left to return to my first day of work following maternity leave.  We got through that first week but things never got better. Older students, 2or 3 years old, were consistently placed in my son's class because they were short on teachers. My son received limited tummy time because of this. The director was apologetic but unwilling to stop doing that when we addressed it with her. The ladies in his class were sweet to my son and patient with his spitting up. Unfortunately, none of them are full time so there was a constant stream of different people through the week taking care of my son, which made me uncomfortable.
