Home-New

When our son Emmanuel was born, we wanted him to be in a place where he could hear French spoken somewhere other than at home with his mother, who is a native French speaker. One afternoon on a walk, we saw a sign for Aux Petits Soins about French classes, and after meeting Gaëlle, we learned about the free Day Trippers program, so we decided to go. It was the beginning of a beautiful adventure.
Emmanuel started when he was three months old, and we started by learning songs such as, “Vole, vole papillon” and “Tourne, tourne petit moulin.” It has been fun for him and for us. At home, he tries to repeat Gaëlle’s gestures, which is very awesome.

Our treasure is 1.5 years old now and is continuing with the Explorers II program, which he is still enjoying. We are very happy having Emmanuel there – it’s a great place to be and to help your little one immersed in French language and culture.

APS is a phenomenal program run by a very passionate teacher Gaëlle. Our son has been attending the program since he was 3 months old and he still loves her classes at 3 years. She is always adapting the program to keep kids interested as they grow, and when the program moved online, our son and the other children never lost interest. This is a testimony to Gaëlle’s creativity and abilities to teach. We highly recommend her classes to anyone trying to immerse their children in a second language.

This is the only in-person (now online meetings) place to learn French (in the) area. Groups are based on levels of knowledge. Little kids have their own groups of different ages. Gaëlle is a French native and developed the program herself. She is an amazing and kind teacher.
