Services
At La Petite Academy we are committed to working respectfully with children and families in ways that value diversity of the community we serve and provide a continual improving environment which enables children to develop to their full potential. Our teaching vision is that all children will thrive in our dedicated, nurturing and stimulating home from home environment, where the children are at the heart of everything we do.
As a parent, placing your child in an early year setting that is endorsed with Millie's Mark provides reassurance that all childcare practitioners know what to do in a paediatric first aid situation. It acknowledges that children's safety is at the forefront of the setting's mind when they care for your child.
Highly responsive care early in life is critical to your child's success in school, relationships and in life. La Petite Academy provides a safe environment where your little one will not only be loved and cared for, but where our highly trained nursery nurses will work to stimulate your baby's cognitive, emotional and physical development through movement, exploration and one-on-one nurturing.
At La Petite Academy, we aim to provide the highest quality education and care for all our children. We aim to offer a warm welcome to each individual child and their family as well as providing a warm and caring environment in which all children can learn and develop as they play. Two-year-olds are filled with energy and curiosity about the world, further developing a sense of increasing independence - making the twos terrific, not terrible!
At La Petite Academy, we now start to concentrate on school-readiness activities. Our preschool day is designed to develop important foundational skills like language and literacy, mathematical thinking and problem-solving while stimulating your child's creativity. Morning and Afternoon Circle time where the day's themed focus activities are introduced and reviewed.

Positive: Professionalism
As a grandparent I have had to pick my two grandchildren up several times from this nursery and have been very impressed with the security standards that are in place there. The confidence that your kin are in a safe, caring and secure environment is something that is beyond price.

Both my children attended La petite, the nursery was and is a superb environment for early care, learning and introduction to children outside of friends and family. The staff are all friendly and attentive and demonstrate enormous professionalism at all times.

Superb care and educated beyond school intake levels for all, especially for SENCo provision.
My nephew attended La Petite Academy for 3 years; and since with their help, has come on leaps and bounds.
Being an experienced primary teacher I have to certainly recommend. I watched my nephew not only grow academically but also as a confident young boy.
Key workers and management were so helpful with the plan given to my brother for support and even as he moved up to primary gave advice and assistance with the transition which I know can often be traumatic.

My Daughter has recently started La Petite Nursery in Tiddlers, she has settled in very well. The staff have all been lovely and reassuring all polite and friendly. I love that each day you get a written and verbal handover of exactly what your child has ate, when they have napped and even when their last nappy change was. It’s really proactive. My daughter seems so happy and comfortable when I drop her off and pick her up. Within the time she has been there she has been kept busy; baking, colouring, making frozen yogurts and all sorts. Such a positive experience so far I am hopeful this will

Awful. I don't even think they deserve one star. La petite academy is a nursery that tick boxes in order to be on the ''outstanding'' rating from Ofsted. it is clearly from the way they interact with our children and us parents that it's all about business. They are money making scheme, with very little interest in building a positive rapport with parents.
I think the food is disgustingly unhealthy and poor choice. The place needs modernising and i don't think the Ofsted report actually represents the real image of La petite. It is easy for institutions like that to be outstanding when they know
