Their biometric scanner has been broken for like 2 years and every week, "We're having someone come out to fix it". Since it's broken they just buzz ANYONE in. I picked my daughter up maybe twice in almost 18 months and not a single time was I questioned or asked to show ID. Just to give some perspective our new daycare is tiny and maybe only has a total of 50 kids and they have TWO secure doors between the outside and the kids. TWICE my daughter was sent home with another girl's pants and no underwear. Day one we brought 5-6 pair of underwear and a few extra pair of pants. Every single week whether they were used or not my wife brought her clothes home and washed them and then took them back. When we called and asked why she was sent home without underwear they had no idea. I asked the teacher the next day and she said that they couldn't find her extra clothes. I walked over to my daughter's cubby and grabbed a bag full of clothes and showed it to the teacher. This place is the "Walmart" of daycare centers. They pack as many kids as they can into the building. In the morning they sometimes violate the rule for the number of teachers. I would drop my daughter off and there would be one teacher for 12-13 kids. The staff is confrontational and defensive if you report anything. We literally had no choice but to bring our daughter here and we got her out as soon as we moved into a new house. Two teachers from CLA currently work at my daughter's new daycare. They told us tons of horror stories about this place and how it's run. That's why they left and went to another center. Just please if you have to go here like we did then get on them about fixing the doors. I mean it. Have a friend of the family who is on your list but never been to the place before pick your kids up and I bet they walk right in and get them.

After…read morebeing at home with Mom and Grandma for the first 7 months of my daughter's life, I was nervous and stressed about the transition of taking my baby girl to day care for the first time. After doing research on the best facilities across Broomfield, Louisville, Lafayette and Erie, I decided on Little Sunshine's and am SO GLAD that I did. Miss Gini (Asst Director) made the process from enrollment to first day attendance feel comfortable and simple, easing my worries tremendously. Miss Lori and Miss Brooke (along with the help of Miss Adrienne) in the Infant 2 room have been the BIGGEST blessings! My little girl loved them from the first week she started. Making it so much easier for me to drop her each day and go to work knowing she is in good hands and loves her teachers. They are always engaging and have done everything they can to help ease my mind and keep my little girl happy. They are flexible and communicative and very sweet with all of the kids. Cannot say enough positive things about this dream team! Also, their proprietary phone app, LuvNotes is AWESOME! The teachers post pictures and notes of my daughters activities throughout the day, when she eats, naps and has a diaper change, which definitely helps mamas like me get peace of mind and reduce the mom guilt. SHOUT OUT TO MISS LORI and MISS BROOKE - ya'll are the BEST! Thank you for being you!!

We joined the Little Sunshine waitlist in June 2024, paying a $350 non-refundable fee after being…read moreexplicitly promised a part-time spot would be available by the end of my maternity leave (approximately 11 months later). After that, we received no communication for 14 months. When we finally reached out, Little Sunshine reneged on their promise of part-time care and had no opening available as originally assured. When we asked for a refund (given that we paid the fee based on inaccurate information) we were told the fee is non-refundable, even though staff acknowledged that multiple families have expressed similar frustrations about misleading waitlist practices. We were promised a follow-up from a higher-up, but no one ever called. In our view, the $350 waitlist fee was paid under deceptive and misleading circumstances, and the lack of communication and accountability has been very disappointing.

So I wasn't going to post anything about this but seeing as tho nothing is going to be done about…read morethe situation it's time. Last Thursday I dropped my daughter off at daycare. At 9:00 am I watched her daycare teacher BIRGITT MANN snatch my daughters food from her and allowed her all but 5 minutes to eat her breakfast . I'm sorry but I've never known a two year old to eat in 5 minutes. Then I watched the teacher yank my daughter out of a toddler chair that she was more than capable of getting out of by herself and she shoved my daughter. I immediately went to pick my daughter up and I wasn't going to be confrontational I just wanted to get my daughter out of there because I was so uncomfortable but then the teacher started screaming at me as soon as I walked in the classroom . Screaming in front of an entire class of two year olds. Telling me that why am I watching video cameras while I'm driving (which I wasn't but doesn't really matter that's what the cameras are there for) proceeds to ask me why I have my daughter in daycare then when I told her to not put her hands on my child like that and then tries to grab my daughter again to "show" me what she did. To make matters worse the assistant director was in the room the entire time and did absolutely nothing to de escalate the situation. DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILD/CHILDREN TO LA PETITE ACADEMY IN THORNTON. They do not care for your child's safety or their needs the district manager wrote me off this afternoon with my phone call with her as well. They do not take matters like this seriously and they allow people who assault children to work for them. Sincerely fuck la petite academy .

Most places have a sick policy and this place seems to not care. Sick kids with coughs and runny noses all the time. "Teachers" sitting and being grumpy all day. Really?!

My son attended Karter School in Thornton from early 2024 through June 2025. I'm writing this…read morereview under my real name despite hesitation, as I've observed other detailed parent reviews being publicly dismissed rather than addressed. That response to genuine feedback is itself concerning. I withdrew my son due to ongoing issues with leadership, communication, and safety concerns that accumulated over time. My experience aligns closely with other detailed reviews that have been dismissed as fake, which speaks to a pattern of avoiding accountability rather than addressing legitimate concerns. Initially, the director was professional and welcoming. Over several months, her approach changed significantly. Communication became dismissive and at times felt hostile. After a minor misunderstanding at a school event, the tone toward my family clearly shifted. Reasonable questions were met with defensiveness rather than collaboration. Warning signs included sudden classroom changes without parent notification, active discouragement of parent-teacher communication, and an atmosphere where families seemed reluctant to ask questions or raise concerns. When a teacher left abruptly, parents were told not to discuss it, a directive that felt controlling rather than transparent. Safety incidents during our enrollment included an emergency evacuation and police presence on the property. Communication during these events was minimal and reactive. Staff appeared uncertain about emergency procedures, which is unacceptable in a childcare setting. In June 2025, I became aware that the director had spoken negatively about me by name during another family's private exit meeting, a meeting I had no involvement in. This breach of professionalism confirmed my concerns about retaliation and lack of accountability. I withdrew my son immediately. The building is beautiful and many teachers genuinely care about the children. However, leadership sets the culture, and that culture felt increasingly defensive and unstable. I encourage prospective families to speak with multiple current and former parents, review state licensing records, and look beyond first impressions before enrolling.

We were fortunate to have one of the best teachers our child has ever had while we were at this…read moreschool, and for a time, everything seemed to be going well. However, when we attempted to transition our child to a different classroom, we were met with unexpected resistance from management. What followed was a terse meeting, after which we were abruptly expelled from the program. Unfortunately, we have since learned that we are not the first family to experience this kind of treatment. There were also repeated instances where promised programs--such as Music and Mandarin--were quietly removed or dismissed as never having been part of the curriculum, despite earlier assurances. A concerning pattern we observed is how management handles criticism. Families who leave negative reviews on public platforms like Google are often met with threats of legal action from ownership (see attached image). People are afraid of reprisal and remove them as you will be targeted by management to find out if you know who left them as they are obsessed with their reviews. The organization is quick to invoke its "Parent Code of Conduct" to justify its actions, yet there is no equivalent standard of accountability for management behavior. As a result, many families feel compelled to leave anonymous reviews out of fear of retaliation. I urge other families to proceed with caution. Being removed from a daycare is not only disruptive to your child's development and emotional well-being, but also to your family's routine and stability. To make matters worse, the center does not offer refunds or even partial reimbursements if you are dismissed mid-month.

THANK YOU Primrose Thornton for staying abreast of the COVID regulations throughout this pandemic…read moreand investing heavily (financially and other) in the health & safety of the school, teachers/staff and families. Yes, observing COVID regulations is (importantly) about individual and public health--but your compliance and care have positively affected our children's education, socialization, and our sanity because classes and the school can stay OPEN. Quarantine is costly and a big pain for all. There are multiple reasons behind different actions that are not in front of folks for them to see and understand. So while it shouldn't be necessary, in addition to all the hoops you've jumped through to make things work, thank you also for explaining to those who have a strong opinion and may not always understand "why". Also, my 4 year old has been attending since he was 1, and he loves his teachers and classmates. He's doing very well in school.
