La Petite - Clearwater is incredible. The individual attention my child receives is shaping him into a wonderful little boy, he is learning how to socialize, vocalize, and most importantly LEARN.

I’ve had a great experience so far thanks to the wonderful staff.
Enrolled Family
We transferred from another child care system, and definitely have seen a positive improvement in our 2 year old. The structured discipline and curriculum have him behaving better at home, and we’re always impressed by what he has retained from the things he’s learning. We also love the ability to keep track of what’s going on, message the teachers, and view pictures from the day through the app!
