We have had nothing but positive things to say about them since we enrolled our son. From management to the teachers, everyone is polite, gets to know each child individually, and always takes the time to great parents. The camera system give peace of mind to us a parents and the daily live communication through the app and at pick up in person from the teachers makes sure you as a parent are never out of the loop of your child's day. 10/10 highly recommend this center.

Our daughter went to this academy as a 1 year old before we had to relocate when she was almost 2. The teachers were incredible, management was fast to respond and it was priceless to be able to see her throughout the day on the cameras they offer. Everything felt so transparent and caring. We received lesson plans even for a 1 year old! She did art, music and reading and ate so well throughout the day. It was incredible to watch the teachers get 8-12 toddlers to sit in a circle and pay attention. I’ll never forget our experience there and can only hope it will be as good where we are moving to.

I wanted to share a positive feedback on this day care. First of all, the staff is very very kind and helpful. Gaby walked us thru the enrollment process and explained everything we need to know as parents who are dealing with daycare for the first time in our life.
Another shout out is to Swapna - Infant Educator who was able to find a great approach to our baby son who never liked pacifiers nor slept during the day. Swapna did her magic and every time I was picking up my son, he was calm, happy, sleeping and enjoyed the pacifier.
I love that this daycare allows to watch in real time what my baby is doing, this is very helpful. Overall, huge thank you to everyone there for their professionalism and high level of care.

My children aged 2 and 3, joined La Petite Sammamish in July, having previously had care at home with Nanny. Ms. Gabbie, the Director, did a great job at making us feel welcome and safe in her care. It took awhile for my kiddos to adjust, but her dedication, warmth, and professionalism accelerated the process. Ms. Gabbie and Ms. Alyssa are attentive and engaging, answering my calls and ensuring that we feel comfortable with the care the girls receive. The girls really enjoy their Teachers and their new friends at school. The SproutAbout app is a huge plus - I rely on it daily to help give me comfort that my kids are having a great day at school.

Gabrielle & Alyssa run an amazing school here. They have done a great job at hiring & retaining quality teachers, keeping the school extremely clean, & loving on all the kids. They are both so hands on which I really appreciate. They are easy to talk to & really just understand the needs of families. I have a daughter in Pre-k with Miss Latha & Miss Ambreen. They are both very sweet, communicate well, & keep the kids engaged in learning & fun activities. My other daughter is in the EPS class with Miss PanPan & Miss Anisha. She runs in without saying goodbye & dropoff has never been that easy anywhere else. They take such good care of her & are very thoughtful about potty training & getting her that exposure. They are very nurturing. The peace of mind I have as parent knowing my kids are in such good care is invaluable. We appreciate this school & all the kind hardworking people in it. Thank you all 💜

My child has been at this center for a year now, and I have to say this center is AMAZING. It is very clean, and smells nice. My child enjoys going to school everyday. My child's teachers are great and very hands on with my child's learning and preparing them for elementary. The Director Gabrielle and Assistant Director Alyssa are great and communicate and always willing to help. We love La Petite Sammamish

DON’T send your kid here. We had our child here for a year and the center director here Gabby cut our child’s hair while she was at the day care (she has a hair disorder where she is not supposed to have her hair cut or there will be complications.)
Gabby cut our child’s hair and did not tell us about it and then when we pulled her out and contacted the regional director Gabby called CPS claiming we do not feed our kids and do not groom them properly.
Our kid was there for over a year and the day after we pull her out due to gabby cutting her hair she retaliated against us and made a claim to CPS.
We have friends whose kids go here and they are afraid and going to pull their kids out as well.
Don’t send your kids here as long as Gabby is the current center director.

We just started at La Petite in Sammamish in August and my 4 year old and 2 year old are loving it. Gabrielle and Alyssa are both wonderful and my girls are loving all their teachers. The structure and focus on kindergarten prep has been great for my 4 year old, and language development and social skills for my 2 year old have been really great for getting her to speak more at home. It’s cool to see the focus on meeting the kids’ needs developmentally and the director and teachers are visibly excited to work with the kids every day and genuinely care about them. I also like the security measures the school takes for safety, as well as how clean the center is daily. Thank you, Gabrielle! :)

My daughter has been attending La Petite since September 2023. She is excited to go every morning and has developed a strong bond with the teachers. The facility is kept clean and I know my daughter is safe. The director, Gabrielle, and assistant director, Alyssa are phenomenal. The care and dedication they both give is unmatched. My daughter’s teachers do a great job posting pictures and videos throughout the day and communicating any needs.

My son went La Petite , his first year was good there was this Afgani caregiver (bless her heart) who is so amazing to my child and others children as well. then once he turn to 1 he moved to another class. Then the problem started when i change his diaper i start seeing scratches. and remind you i make sure i file my nails well since i had him then i went to his school and start to investigate during drop off and pick up and saw one of his teachers nail so long those acleric extensions super long for me atleast , i dont even know how and why the school allowing this. I even wanted to nicely tell her but she was so uninviting dont say hello back during drop off or pickup, she just seem to be forced to be there.so I Immediately went to the principal and told her this is unacceptable to my family why i am seeing scratches all over his waist and diaper area. she said she will talk to her . Then i saw her moved to another class for few weeks then back to the younger kids class again. i was pissed i had to move out my kid. so pay attention to who your caregivers are you dont hear news this days about miscarrying kids for no reason. I AM SO Grateful for the first year there are some amazing people who are just gifted and some are just doing it as a job. Either way there are no Better Management can fix this type of issue. So good luck to you

Excellent place to send our son! The new management is just phenomenal and very communicative. I feel so comfortable leaving our baby in their care each day.

My daughter went to LPA for almost three years between 2020 and 2023. The problem with this chain is that the corporate management is insisting on being the cheapest daycare in the area and therefore is not able to retain high quality employees. We have been through so many directors and teachers here with so much churn and drama as you can see from the reviews (some of which have been removed). The final straw for me was walking in on one of the newer teachers yelling at and yanking my child’s arm over the toys she apparently wasn’t cleaning up. We immediately transferred our child to another school and haven’t looked back since. I have zero confidence in this school’s capacity to hire and retain competent staff. Your child is very likely better off anywhere else.

We just started about a week ago and our 9 month old loves this daycare! This location is under new leadership and seems to be doing a lot better based on previous reviews.

We had two children go to this daycare and unfortunately the leadership at this facility has had a high degree of turnover and this has contributed to the disorganization. We decided to move our child out after his peanut allergy was not being taken seriously. I would recommend seeking out another daycare until issues with management are sorted out.

We have been with La Petite since early April 2023. Our experience with the new director, Kiya, has been great and we have nothing but good things to say about the place. Our daughter loves the toddler class and her teacher, Ms Adara, is wonderful. We’d recommend this place based on the leadership changes that have clearly happened as we joined.
