We absolutely love La Petite. The daily updates through the app are wonderful and the teachers do such a good job. Our child absolutely loves LPA as well- excited to go each morning and so happy to tell us about her days, which to us means it is a wonderful place.
We are very happy that we chose La Petite Academy--the teachers show genuine love and care for our daughter and she has developed so much faster than when I had her home with me full-time.
The teachers are lovely and excellent in the Toddler 2 classroom. Ms Kammy and Ms Tashinee are great. They show their love and care for the kids and their compassion is outstanding. I appreciate them
My experience has been very positive thus far with teachers, staff and the director. The environment is very caring and nurturing.
La Petite Academy has been great for my daughter. She loves her teachers and we feel very safe with her there. They have also been very helpful in coming up with strategies to make sure she remains healthy and moving forward to new milestones.
We are grateful for a place where our daughter can learn from her teachers and classmates alike in a safe and comfortable place. We are also thankful for the relationship she has built with Ms Evette and Ms Meko, who have been such a big part of her development.

At Veterans Hospital DC, your child's day includes a mix of learning, play, outdoor time, meals, and rest. Children explore Learning Centers, participate in small- and large-group activities, and enjoy time outdoors. Meals, snacks, rest, and plenty of opportunities for choice and play are built into the day, providing a familiar routine while keeping each day engaging.
Each child has an individual portfolio that grows with them as they progress from one age group to the next, capturing their development and learning along the way. Teachers use developmental checklists, work samples, photos, and observations to understand their progress and support continued growth. Families stay connected through SproutAbout updates, family-teacher conferences, and daily conversations with their child's teachers.
Our Learn as We Grow curriculum follows six core concepts throughout the year. Children explore these same concepts from Toddlers through Pre-K, but how they experience them changes as they grow. Each program introduces developmentally appropriate activities that build in complexity, helping children deepen their understanding and build new skills as they progress from one classroom to the next.
Moving to a new classroom is an exciting milestone at Veterans Hospital DC. Children gradually visit their new classroom, meet their teachers, and become familiar with new routines before the transition. Teachers work together to support continuity, while families receive regular updates throughout the process.
At Veterans Hospital DC, we recognize that every child learns and develops differently. We encourage you to talk with your local school about your child's specific needs. Our team will work with you to understand how we can support your child and discuss any accommodations or additional support they may need. Open communication with families helps us create a nurturing, inclusive environment where each child can learn, grow, and feel supported.
Outdoor exploration happens more than once a day, weather permitting, giving children time to run, climb, jump, and explore nature. These experiences encourage curiosity, movement, and a connection with the world around them.
