We feel it's long overdue that we share just how grateful we are for this wonderful school!…read more We have two boys here, one in the Toddler program and one in Preschool, and both have been happy and comfortable since their very first day. As parents, there is truly no better feeling than knowing your children feel safe, cared for, and excited to go to school every morning. From the moment you walk through the reception area, you are greeted with such a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The staff are always friendly, smiling, and genuinely engaging with the children. The school feels well-organized, with a visible and involved leadership team and staff who genuinely seem to enjoy what they do. That positive environment makes such a difference, and we truly believe the wonderful people here are a big part of why our boys are thriving. We especially want to recognize two amazing teachers who have made such a meaningful difference to our family. Ms. Kristina is absolutely wonderful! She welcomed our son with open arms and has played such an important role in helping him feel safe, comfortable, and like he truly belongs. She has an incredible ability to combine warmth and compassion with clear expectations and guidance. She is understanding, thoughtful, solution-oriented, and exceptionally skilled in both her actions and communication. We particularly appreciate her honesty and how openly and directly she communicates, always in a respectful and constructive way. That is something we value tremendously as parents. Her ability to manage so much while remaining attentive and present with the children is truly impressive. She knows when to comfort, when to encourage, and when to be firm, always with the children's best interests at heart. Seeing that our son naturally turns to her whenever he needs comfort or support means the world to us. We couldn't be happier to have her as his teacher! Ms. Jazmene is another truly exceptional teacher! She has such a calm, kind, and nurturing presence, and it is clear how deeply she cares about the children. She seems to have an incredible capacity to manage everything happening around her while remaining patient, composed, and genuinely present. One small moment really stayed with us. While picking up our son one afternoon, Ms. Jazmene was giving us an update about his day when another child called out for her. Without hesitation, she paused our conversation to attend to that child. It may sound like a small thing, but as parents, it was one of the most reassuring things we could witness. It showed us that the children's needs truly come first and that she is always attentive to them. That kind of genuine care means so much. It is also amazing to see how much the children learn and grow in her classroom! She creates an environment where they feel comfortable, build friendships, develop independence, and learn through play. She is especially wonderful at preparing the children for their next stage, including important milestones like potty training. It is incredible how quickly they learn with her patient and consistent guidance. We also want to recognize all the teaching assistants, who are incredibly kind, caring, and capable. They contribute so much to the loving atmosphere throughout the school. The classrooms and both the indoor and outdoor spaces are beautiful, welcoming, and thoughtfully designed for children. The entire environment feels happy and inviting, encouraging friendships, cooperation, exploration, and learning through play. But what means the most to us is the peace of mind this school gives us as parents. Knowing that our boys are not only well cared for, but genuinely seen, understood, encouraged, and valued for who they are, is something we will never take for granted. There is something incredibly special about dropping your children off every morning and walking away feeling completely at ease, knowing they are in such loving and capable hands. We are so grateful for everything you do for our boys and for the happiness, security, and sense of belonging you give them every day. A heartfelt thank you to Ms. Kristina, Ms. Jazmene, all the wonderful assistants, the leadership team, and everyone who makes this school such a special place. We truly couldn't be happier, and we wholeheartedly recommend this school to other families!

A great place for children! Our grandsons recently moved to a new childcare center, but I wanted…read moreto write this long overdue review to acknowledge the great job they do. The entrance is secure which is very reassuring. Everything is very clean and organized. The teachers send photos of the children to their parents throughout the day, which is very appreciated . There are a lot of activities for the kids. Our grandson's favorite was 'Water Play Day'

Our kids started going to La Petite at 6 months old and 2 years old. We were happily under their…read morecare for two years. I cannot give them enough praise. They do so many fun activities and crafts. The teachers are patient, loving and kind. My son is not easy going and they handled him with grace and professionalism. They are equally as wonderful with parents. The director Nicole is a gem and the company is lucky to have her!! They have photographers come multiple times a year, making it so easy to get proves pictures of your kids. If you are looking for a great spot for your kids that's safe, educational, caring and fun, look no further!!! We loved it here and will deeply miss being apart of the La Petite family.

My son started in the one-year-old classroom, and from early on I became concerned about the way…read morehe, and other toddlers, were being treated. The first incident I witnessed was a teacher, Ms. Jen, using her feet to push children into their chairs. I immediately brought my concerns to the front office because I do not believe that is an appropriate or acceptable way to handle toddlers. Unfortunately, I felt those concerns were dismissed. Not long after, I saw the same teacher use a spoon to stop my son from doing something. Aside from being inappropriate, it was unsanitary. I also witnessed teachers picking food up off the floor and giving it back to the children, which was extremely concerning. About a month later, I picked my son up with a busted lip that had dried blood on it, a knot on his head, and hives covering his body. No one contacted me about any of these injuries, and when I arrived, staff could not locate an incident report. After about 20 minutes of searching, they finally found it, but it was so poorly written that it was nearly impossible to read. Another issue occurred during water day. My son was placed in a different classroom and allowed to participate in water activities even though he was not scheduled to be outside for water day at all. He was allowed to play without a swimsuit, sunscreen, or water shoes, and spent time outside soaking wet in the same clothes I had dropped him off in. No one contacted me beforehand to let me know he had been moved or to ask me to bring the appropriate items. Ultimately, we chose to unenroll him early after receiving conflicting information regarding tuition and scheduling as he transitioned into the two-year-old classroom with an additional day. Let's just say, If they're teaching children the same math that they use to calculate payments, you do not want to bring to your child here! Throughout our time there, it became apparent that communication and organization were lacking. Staff members frequently provided different answers, and concerns were often met with explanations rather than meaningful resolution. As a parent, I was deeply disappointed by the overall lack of professionalism, cleanliness, accountability, and organization. I never felt confident that concerns were taken seriously, and there always seemed to be an excuse instead of a solution. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend this facility. That said, I do want to recognize the teachers who made a positive impact on my son's experience. Ms. Megan, Ms. Rebecca, Ms. Morgan, and another teacher; a Black woman with glasses who was usually there midday, whose name I unfortunately cannot remember were all kind, attentive, and genuinely cared for the children. They were a bright spot in an otherwise disappointing experience.

We started at Crème de la Crème at the beginning of this year, and it has been an incredible…read moreexperience so far. We came from another local daycare facility in the area, and we are so glad we found this place. From the outside, the building might look small and a bit tucked away, but it truly proves the saying "you can't judge a book by its cover." Once you walk inside, the facility is surprisingly large and spacious, with beautifully decorated high ceilings and thoughtfully designed learning areas. Lily, the Director, has been amazing from the start. She regularly checks in with us and makes sure everything is going well. She and the entire staff are incredibly cheerful and professional, while also creating a genuine sense of care and trust. Every morning we are greeted with smiles, and my son is excited to go to class each day. One of the biggest differences we've noticed compared to our previous daycare is the variety of activities and spaces available to the kids. Because the facility is so large, the children aren't confined to one room or a single playground all day. Instead, they get to move throughout the school and experience different environments. Some of the amazing things available to the kids include: - A mini cafeteria where they can participate in cooking activities - A science lab - An indoor basketball court - An in-school library with Spanish lessons - A media center - Three large playgrounds for different age groups - Art classes - An imagination center for dress-up and creative play - A large activity room with a stage, toys, and tables for group play The environment allows kids to explore, learn, and move throughout the day rather than being cooped up in a single classroom. They have space, freedom, and endless opportunities to grow. Since starting here, we've already seen so much development in our son compared to our previous facility. We're incredibly happy with our decision and excited to continue our journey here.

We are a returning family and we LOVE it here. During the pandemic we brought our boys here to play…read moreand stay socialized with other kids. They set up a space for the kids to distance learn and then had fun activities for them to do. We just recently took in my granddaughter and needed childcare, so naturally I came back to my friends at Creme de la Creme. She is in the infant room and Ms Valerie, Ms Josie, and Ms Mary are so sweet and so kind. The culinary space is amazing, imagination island is a little town of make believe, and the science room looks like a solar system. This place is AWESOME. Highly highly highly recommend a tour and you can decide for yourself!

This place is okay. Would I use it for my children given I have many other options? No, probably…read morenot. Would I use it for my children if I had no other options or seriously limited options? Yes, probably. I do NOT have a problem with any of the staff at this location. We were pleased with our child's teachers. The Director and Assistant Director always seemed nice and friendly, but I had overheard them on a few occasions talking about other parents, staff, etc. when they thought no one was listening... I can get past that for good daycare, but it is unprofessional. My issues lie with company policies. Sunrise/Tots Unlimited seems to be very much about their bottom line. You will find this with a lot of these daycare centers, unfortunately. The idea is to spend as little as possible and reap maximum profit. That's just how capitalism works, unfortunately. However, it is ultimately why we switched to another child care... My child's room when she was enrolled had a few children with special needs-- I liked this because I want my child to be in a diverse group and know how to treat other children. However, in a room with 18 children and two adults, which is within the legal ratio for the age group, having three children with special needs seemed to stretch the teachers very thin. I was pleased with my child's teachers, but you could tell that they just did not have the support needed. There need to be additional staff for children who require a higher level of care; or ratios need to be lowered. I did also have concerns about sanitation. Pink eye did run rampant here when my child was enrolled. My child contracted it twice. I understand that it is common in daycares, and knowing how little support staff had, I am sure that ensuring all children properly washed hands with soap was not possible. I did also notice the room over legal ratio on a few occasions. I get that this happens, but once again, they need a couple extra staff members who can float from room to room to keep within ratios AND support children who have higher needs.

‼I do not recommend this daycare. The staff are extremely unprofessional and I witnessed behavior…read morethat I would describe as mentally and emotionally harmful to children. Instead of providing a safe, nurturing environment, staff spoke to children in ways that were degrading and dismissive. And I did not feel that my child's needs were being prioritized.‼ ‼The teachers don't take accountability either and the director Tanya is so unprofessional how she talks down to the parents and is always the kids fault never the teachers.‼ ‼The classrooms are consistently unclean and poorly maintained. Floors, toys, and learning materials are often dirty, which raises serious concerns about hygiene and the children's well-being‼ ‼As a parent, trust and professionalism are everything when it comes to childcare, and unfortunately this daycare did not meet those standards.‼ ‼ I strongly suggest looking elsewhere for a more reliable and respectful environment for your child.‼
