Welcome to Our School

Welcome to La Petite Academy in O'Fallon, IL.

Our school is nationally accredited by NAEYC and we are a gold rated school with the state of Illinois. We continue to meet the needs of accreditation standards which are higher than those of the State of Illinois Daycare Licensing Standards.

We offer programs designed for every stage of your child’s development, including Infants, Toddlers, Twos, Early Preschool, Preschool, Pre-K, Before & After School, and Summer Camp. Each program provides age-appropriate, hands-on learning experiences that help children build skills, confidence, and a love of learning.

Teachers at our school have backgrounds in early childhood and elementary education. They receive regular training throughout the year. We value the relationships we have with our families and work hard to involve them through monthly events and activities. We create a warm and nurturing environment for the children, parents, and staff.

We’re committed to keeping you connected throughout the day while your child is in our care. Get access to live streaming video of your child’s classroom, plus other real-time updates, with our exclusive mobile app for families, SproutAbout.

Sara Wagner, Director

Education: Associates in Early Childhood Education

I have been in the education field professionally for 15 years. I have worked every aspect of this field, but the majority of my experience has been a teacher in the two year old room. I love that age group as they are very energetic and you really start to see their little personalities come through. I am also the mom of two sons who are my greatest achievements. Family is incredibly important to me and I use that importance in helping me make daily decisions as the Academy Director.

Each day at La Petite Academy is filled with opportunities for your child to learn, play, explore, and grow. Children explore learning centers, participate in small- and large-group activities, spend time outdoors, and enjoy plenty of opportunities for choice and play. Meals, snacks, and rest are also built into the day, creating a familiar routine that helps children feel comfortable while keeping each day fun and engaging. Daily activities are designed with your child’s age and developmental stage in mind.

Our teachers regularly observe your child’s development and use those insights to plan learning experiences that support their individual needs and growth. Each child has an individual portfolio that grows with them as they move from one age group to the next, capturing their learning, milestones, and accomplishments along the way. Teachers use developmental checklists, work samples, photos, and observations to understand how your child is progressing and identify opportunities to build new skills. Families stay connected every step of the way through SproutAbout updates, family-teacher conferences, and daily conversations with their child’s teachers.

Moving to a new classroom is an exciting milestone. 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.
