L’Ecole Des Petits

We met with Tina at L’Ecole des Petits after a bad experience at another preschool. Our son’s previous preschool teacher told us our son had a hard time making friends and paying attention. She never spoke to us about why he might be acting this way before making these judgements.
When we met Tina our entire family felt instantly at home. We told her about our experience and she asked us questions about our son and family life that gave her a better understanding about our son’s behavior. We speak 3 languages at home, and she walked us through the language frustration our son might be feeling.
Since he’s been at L’Ecole des Petits our son has excelled in both French and English. He’s also more confident, social, and happy. Tina has also been instrumental in helping us understand our son’s talents as well as his needs. She also has him eating veggies thanks to her delicious home cooking!
I also don’t want to forget to applaud Tina’s assistant Anya. She has a very nurturing spirit that we very much appreciate.
We feel fortunate to have found what we feel was the perfect preschool fit for our family, and I’d definitely encourage other parents to visit.

Our son has been going to L’Ecole des Petits for the past several months and is thriving. It is a home based preschool in Corte Madera. There are only 14 students, so my son gets a lot of individualized attention.
The children are all very well behaved and the school feels like an extension of our family. We feel connected to the greater community of parents and children at the school.
Tina puts a lot of attention and love into everything at the school. On the first day, parents were greeted with warm coffee and crepes. We were given a welcome packet so that we knew what to expect. We were also encouraged to get to know the other parents and families and to talk about our feelings, which for me was first jitters.
This kind of care is put into everything at the school — back to school night, the Halloween parade, and the Christmas pageant. Parents are also welcome to drop in anytime and to come for after school events — like dinners at Tina’s.
Academically, my son now knows the alphabet, he knows how to count, and he has been very good at saying thank you. He also eats well — Tina is French and makes all of their food everyday with the same loving care that she puts into everything.
If you haven’t visited the school yet, I would recommend taking a look. We are very happy with our decision to enroll our son in this school.
