Welcome to Our School

Welcome to our La Petite Academy educational child care in Omaha, NE! We are both nationally accredited by NECPA and also a member of the Nebraska Quality Rating and Improvement System, Step Up to Quality.

Welcome to La Petite Academy on California Street. We would love the opportunity to show you how our programs for Infant care and Preschool will exceed your expectations for an early education provider. We have a wonderful team of teachers on our staff here in Omaha! Many of our teachers have at least 10 years of experience in early childhood education. Every year, they attend regular training sessions to stay current in the field.

Safety is a top priority at our center. Our building is equipped with a secured door, strict check-in and check-out procedures, and cameras in every room. Visitors to the school must check in with a member of management and show a photo ID.

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.

Since we opened in 1983, we have offered a welcoming, high-quality learning environment for children. If you are looking for an education driven child care serving the Northwest Omaha and Millard communities, then schedule a tour of our La Petite Academy today!

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.
