Pros

The children who need care

Cons

La Petite Academy tries to get as much out of employees as they possibly can while paying close to minimum wage as they possibly can. They look good on their advertisements, but what goes on in reality on the inside is far from what they claim in those beautifully produced brochures.

Pros

The kids and families are amazing. It’s so rewarding to go into work and watch a baby learn to walk or a toddler begin to learn their colors and know that I had a part in that. Watching the kids grow and learn was the absolute best part of the job.

Cons

There were a lot of safety concerns. Staff were not all held to the same standard and children were getting hurt because some staff were allowed to slack while others weren’t. I was both parent and staff. My concerns about safety were brushed off by my admin and the district as well. There was favoritism and a lack of training. The pay is also very low. The CEO has never been on the classroom side of childcare and that tells you everything you need to know.
