I have worked for La Petite Academy since August 2011, starting as a part time teacher and working my way up to Director. I love everything education and love seeing the kids learn and grow. In my role as a director, I am able to not only see the kids grow, but also see the teachers grow in their role. I currently reside in Westerville with my boyfriend and 9 year old son.
Qualified, experienced, highly trained daycare teachers nurture your child and inspire a love of learning. Our teacher-to-child ratio is thoughtfully defined to ensure each child feels safe, seen, and loved.

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.
