What Parents Say

This is our third grandchild attending Little Angels. The teachers are all so loving and kind. We always have such a warm welcome and our grandchildren have experienced such a loving environment. I think the teachers love what they are doing because it shows!!! As each of the children advanced to school they were very well prepared for Kindergarten. Well run and educationally well rounded. Love this preschool!!!
This is our 3rd year at LACP! I cannot say enough about how much this school has blessed my son and our family. From meeting family friends, to growing my son’s love for God and learning, we are forever grateful to this community. We love how small and welcoming it is so that even the director knows every child and parents’ names and even little siblings! There are so many fun events for parents to get involved, but we especially love the monthly worship service. Don’t think twice about signing up your child here for a loving, faith-filled, safe learning environment. You won’t regret it!
There are not enough words to describe how wonderful Little Angels is. I am at stay at home mom and I do not trust many people with my children. The second that we took the tour of Little Angels. I felt like I could trust everyone there and that my child would be a safe! My daughter loves going to school and loves everyone there. I love the environment, the teachings, and the activities that they do with not only the kids but with the families! We love Little Angels!
Little Angels has been a wonderful school for my kids. My daughter attended and now my son is currently attending. Ms Debbie has the best staff, they have treated my kids like they are part of their family and made them feel safe and loved. I do not worry about my kids when I drop them off, because I trust the school will take excellent care of them and teach them to love and respect each other, and God. This school is such a blessing, in so many ways. We cannot say enough good things about LAP! Thank you for making a difference in my kids lives and being a a safe space for their growth and development.
We have been so pleased with Little Angels and how our son has grown and developed during his attendance. That begins with the Director and Assistant Director. They are amazingly good-natured, incredibly helpful, and you can just feel that they care about each child. The teachers are loving and patient, and the staff seem genuinely happy to work there. We’ve felt that the school meets an important balance of letting kids be kids and learning in fun and creative ways; we love the art our little one comes home with. We’ve also enjoyed that our son continues to strengthen faith in God at school as well. We’ve signed our second up and couldn’t imagine sending our kids somewhere else. It can feel so hard to know which preschool to send your children to. I walked through the door and knew this was the place for us. Our whole family has been able to participate in events throughout the year and we consider it a true blessing to be part of this school community.
