This is only for the application process, as we decided not to inquire further with them after our experience.We tried to schedule a tour for possible future care. They canceled on us twice on the day of each tour after we had already arranged time off, and are not flexible with tour times since there is nothing available after 3 PM ever, so we decided not to bother. Seems like staffing levels must be close to the bone (I'm sure they're in ratio, but yeesh) if they can't even spare a person for 10-15 minutes past 4 PM. And if they're this difficult to work with to even get a tour scheduled, I would hesitate how it would be handled if there is any issue with a child.

Had a really negative experience here with our son. He was being bullied and because of this was acting out at nap time (he still talked about a couple of the kids who picked on him for months after we withdrew him). The woman who was the main caregiver in the class had some issues with classroom management, so we were forced to pick up our son at nap time every day, even though we were paying for a full day of care. We asked to change rooms and were turned down. The woman who runs the daycare center (her name is Tracy) is the least maternal person I’ve ever met. She has a BA in psychology (one of the few people at the daycare with any formal training) and proceeded to tell us that our son was on the autism spectrum (he has since been diagnosed with add by an actual psychologist). Don’t get me wrong, there are a couple of good staff members here (Mr. Mike, Stephanie, and Deanna come to mind), but I wouldn’t risk sending your child here because you’re rolling the dice. As soon as we were able to, we moved our son to Primrose in La Vista and had a much better experience.

This is Rhonda, Mom. The Director and staff are all wonderful and trustworthy. Our child has been here for a few years. I love to tell the story that I drive past 6 (now probably 10) other childcare facilities to get to La Petite Academy! Our son has flourished here because of the education and creativity practiced with trained teachers. They care not only for our children, but also their own development. My son is nearing school age. It is tough for me, because he is so happy and eager to go to " this school " every day. I will continue to visit upon occasion! I see what they have done to develop my child! I am so proud!

***UPDATE: Everything below and more! We have been with LaPetite 4 years and only leaving because our child is now school age. The teachers truly care and know my child personally. Exceptional care and trust every single day because of the communication, video/app, and focus on kindergarten readiness. Exceeded my expectations for preschool curriculum***Absolutely incredible child care! All of the teachers are amazing and the director is very responsive and helpful. We drive 15 miles out of our way each day to make sure that our child attends this specific location because of the learning atmosphere and stem -based curriculum. La Petite has consistently impressed us with the highest quality child care. I love the app that posts daily pictures and keeps you up-to-date on activities- it's a great way to communicate and stay connected with the teachers

I could not say enough great things about this center. The staff is amazing with my two year old son and the minute I met the director I knew I could trust this center. They update us on our son throughout the day in detailed explanation and a lot of pictures. They take Covid precautions very seriously which I love. They do different activities with my son, all through out the day. It keeps him busy and learning. They make sure to get the kids outside as much as possible when the weather is nice. My sons language is soaring. I could go on and on about La Petite in Papillion. They have been so great.

La Petite of Papillion is one of the best! My family and I move around a lot for work and we could not ask for a better place to help us with our kiddos. The facility welcomed us warmly and did everything they could to make sure we were taken care of when we arrived. They cared that our children had a smooth transition to their classrooms - and that they felt comfortable. That atmosphere continues every.single.day!Our little gals are 4 and 7 yrs old, so we have parental experience in both the Pre-K and School Age rooms. Every single teacher/helper in the facility treats our kids like their own. They are caring and want to see them thrive in a happy and warm environment. Not only are they focused on education, but I feel they implement all the things I would teach my children if I was fortunate to be a stay at home mom. That feeling is priceless. I appreciate the facility and cannot say enough wonderful things about them. Thank you!

My son loves this daycare, we recently switched locations due to my work change and I don't regret at all. He is always happy to get dropped off. The staff is amazing and they all truly care for your child. Seems like they enjoy what they do. Ms. SoHee is so wonderful with our son, I swear she is the best. He loves her!! Definitely recommend this place for Papillion!!

We absolutely adore La Petite in Papillion! We have attended La Petite for over five years and it’s our home away from home. My kiddos love the staff and the directors. They are all well educated and knowledgeable about early childhood development and it shows. I am very impressed with each classroom and how they promote open learning and have age appropriate toys-which we struggled to find in other daycare centers in the area. If your child has individual needs, they will make sure those are met as well. I highly recommend!

My children have attended La Petite since they were 8 weeks old. The staff of La Petite have always exceeded my expectations. My daughters are well cared for, educated, and loved every day. Every child should have access to the wonderful care and education offered at La Petite Academy.

This is an excellent childcare facility. I wasn't too excited about going back to work and taking my child to daycare, but I couldn't be more comfortable with choosing La Petite Academy. The teachers are extremely friendly and really work with the kids. My child started out just going one day but a turn of events happened and we needed care for three days. Lucky for us, one student was moving away and we were able to get in. The facility itself is very secure and extremely clean. We love La Petite!

What an AMAZING school! My five year old is prepared for Kindergarten because of the wonderful, caring staff at La Petite. My child came from an in home daycare of only 5 kids. This was a huge change for him. La Petite made the change easy and my child was excited about going to school to learn. Tracy, the Director, was always available for any questions or concerns. She takes an active role in your child’s education. The teachers are actual teachers and know how to work with children. The children really do like the teachers and the teachers make learning fun for the kids. I was truly sad to leave the school and highly recommend La Petite to anyone.

I would highly recommend La Petite to anyone looking for child care. We had our daughter in a in-home setting prior to coming to La Petite and from day one we noticed the difference. Every morning our 2 year old goes running for the door in excitement when she is asked if she is ready to go to "school". The entire staff at La Petite goes over and above for each and every child.

This place is great. The staff that work with my son are so nice and welcoming. My son is very shy but seems to be adjusting well and since he just started I look forward to seeing his progress... The directors were super nice and non judgmental they were kind enough to inform me of programs that can help my son outside of the academy. The classrooms are clean and age separated all other daycares seriously lack what la petite offers.
