My son has been at La Petite in Durham since he was 6 months old. The staff has been wonderful, so caring and attentive to his needs. He loves to come to school every day and I know that the teachers and administrative staff love having him there!

The only reason I give 3 stars is only because I have never seen where a facility makes you pay weekly and when you do pay late you have a $30 late fee plus on top of that you pay an over the market rate.That's a little far fetched because if most parents are like me I get paid bi weekly and it falls on a Friday and not a Monday. They say pay in advance but how can you ever get caught up!? on the up side the staff is wonderful and I love them

My child didn't seem happy here, it wasn't worth the money. The hours however were great and the facilities were tidy- also, after shopping around the rates were on the low side (but like I said, still not worth it.) Other L... read more
