La Petite Academy INC

I can't say enough good things about the Papillion La Petite Academy! When it was time for our daughter to start preschool we toured multiple daycares in Papillion and none of them felt right. La Petite was more than we wanted to spend but we went and took a tour and instantly fell in love! First off. Tracy and Erika have been there since it opened (director and assistant director) and multiple teachers have been there for many years. We signed our daughter up for Junior Kindergarten her second year here and Mr. Mike is hands down the best teacher I've ever met! The staff, the meals, the activities, education, and clean facility was everything we were looking for! Our daughter has moved on to Kindergarten but we will never forget our years at La Petite! I highly recommend to anyone looking for a place to take their kids.

La Petite Papillon has been amazing for our family. From the moment you walk in, you can tell the staff genuinely care about the kids. They don’t just know their names, but they know their personalities and what makes them excited and comfortable. It really shows that they take the time to get to know each child individually and my son wakes up excited to attend each day. Tracy is an incredible director and truly goes above and beyond. She’s always available, super supportive, and you can tell she wants the best for every single child. Her leadership sets such a positive tone. The whole place feels warm, organized, and welcoming because of the way she runs things. One of my favorite parts of having my child here is the daily updates. I love getting pictures and videos throughout the day. It makes such a difference to see what they’re doing, what they’re learning, and how much fun they’re having. We feel so lucky to have found La Petite Papillon. It’s more than a daycare to us. It feels like a team of people who genuinely love what they do and care deeply about the kids. I’d recommend them to anyone looking for a safe, caring, and fun place for their child.

I love my school because the teachers truly know my kids. They know their favorite books, the quirky way they wear their socks just right, and that they need a few extra minutes to finish a masterpiece. They even remember which meals make them smile and when to offer a little “strong girl milk” on tough days. I love my school because our director makes this place feel like home. She’s like a friendly neighbor inviting us to a bonfire: warm, welcoming, and full of heart. I love our chef because she fills little tummies (and big hearts!) with delicious, homemade meals that my kids actually ask me to recreate, sweet peppers and all. I love my school because it’s not just a school, it’s a family. ❤️

My kids have been going to this daycare for years and we absolutely love it. The director and assistant have been there since it opened and keep everything running so smoothly. There’s a real sense of stability and structure - and real curriculum. The staff is tenured and we’ve loved every teacher. I feel so fortunate to have had my kids go there all these years and set them up with a solid foundation. Additionally, it’s always clean and they have wonderful playground equipment! We’ll miss them terribly when my youngest goes to kindergarten next year!

I’ve watched my girls flourish so much here. They’ve grown more confident, more social, and genuinely excited to walk through the doors each morning. They adore their friends, and the way they’ve bonded with the teachers and staff has meant so much to us. It truly feels like a little family. We originally chose La Petite because of the facilities, camera access, and daily updates that gave us peace of mind. But over time, it’s become so much more than that. The teachers go above and beyond to build real connections with both the kids and the families, and I can honestly say I trust them completely with my babies.
