Now Enrolling for Preschool and Pre-K

The path to kindergarten, and future success, goes through Preschool and Pre-K. The sooner your child starts their journey, the better. Let us ensure their school readiness. 

Welcome to Our School

Thank you for visiting La Petite Academy in Orlando, FL! My name is Taquesta Verpaele and I am the academy director. I hold a bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Development and a Director's Credential.

Our school, which includes Infant Care, Preschool, and School-Age programs, is nationally accredited by National Early Childhood Program Accreditation. The child care standards that we follow are higher than those required by the State of Florida.

We are proud to have many long-term teachers here in Orlando, all of whom hold a CDA or higher. They participate in various training opportunities throughout the year. We have a monthly newsletter that announces events taking place at the school for current and future families to attend. By keeping our parents involved, we develop strong relationships that help us better meet our children's needs.

We’re committed to keeping you connected throughout the day while your child is in our care. Get access to live streaming video of your child’s classroom, plus other real-time updates, with our exclusive mobile app for families, SproutAbout.

We invite you to tour our La Petite Academy educational daycare in Orlando, FL. We look forward to meeting you!

As a teacher, I know what to look for (cleanliness, creditials, safety procedures, curriculum application) and have been very satisfied with the entire experience. My son is excited to see his teacher every morning and I feel comfortable with knowing that he is being well provided for.
Enrolled Family
I think overall the staff is what makes this place so special. The entire staff in the infant area is amazing the director and assistant director is Alafaya so happy and welcoming. I haven’t once thought I made a mistake coming to this location. But many time have spoken to my wife friends and family and state how fortunate I feel having my son here with these awesome people.
