About Our Exceptional Montessori Preschool in Omaha

We are very proud to be recognized by the readers of Omaha Magazine as the Best Preschool in Omaha!

Do you want more than a traditional daycare, preschool, or child care center in Omaha for your child? Montessori Children’s House offers Montessori programs for children ages 6 weeks to 6 years, and we nurture each child’s desire to blossom. 

As the best Omaha Montessori Preschool, we are dedicated to developing young children into confident and intelligent future leaders. Our trained staff focuses on following Montessori principles to guide your child to explore their interests and learn at their own pace. You can trust that your child is in good hands at our Omaha Montessori Preschool. 

MONTESSORI-CERTIFIED TEACHERS EXPERTLY GUIDE YOUR CHILD

Our Omaha Montessori Preschool instructors are equipped with a Bachelor’s degree, as well as two years of Montessori training. Each teacher holds a Montessori AMS accreditation, and our school is an AMS full-member site, which means we meet the standards of excellence for Montessori educators worldwide.

Our instructors are well-versed in the Montessori principles and know how to implement them best to help educate the whole child and promote a lifelong love of learning.

A MULTI-AGE CLASSROOM IS IDEAL FOR EARLY LEARNING

Children learn at their own pace! In a multi-age classroom, children can build stronger relationships. The older children can learn leadership skills and become mentors to their younger peers, and the younger children can model the older children. This arrangement mirrors real-life experiences where the reality is that they will be working with and across many chronological ages. This helps prepare children for adulthood by teaching them how to work together with others of different ages.

INFANT PROGRAM | 6 WEEKS TO 18 MONTHS

YOUR BABY AS AN INVENTOR AND EXPLORER WITH RIE® EDUCARERS®
With the RIE® Educaring® approach, babies are viewed and spoken to in ways that allow them to be active participants in their daily lives. The deep respect this approach engenders is the start of self-love and self-esteem.

CHILDREN ARE GIVEN THE SPACE TO EXPLORE FREELY
If your child is learning to grasp, they will get more grasping opportunities. They’ll have more opportunities to pull up in their space when they start to pull up. Through observations, teachers follow their interests so that they can explore freely and engage in what they want to learn. This follows the Montessori principle of respect for the child.

ARTS AND CRAFTS SPARK YOUR BABY’S CREATIVE ABILITIES
At our Omaha Montessori Education Center, your baby will be introduced to expression through art because artistic expression should begin early! Through a specialized art program, your child will develop motor skills and explore their imagination through creativity.

TODDLER PROGRAM| 18 MONTHS TO 3 YEARS

ART PRACTICE INCREASES YOUR CHILD’S CREATIVITY
Your child enters a world of expression and creativity at our Omaha Montessori Daycare as they choose colors and textures to explore. Art practice also improves their fine motor skills, making things like gripping a pencil easier. This helps prepare children for Kindergarten and elementary school by enhancing their problem-solving skills and creative thinking.

EACH CHILD LEARNS AT THEIR OWN PACE
By observing your child, providing the right lesson when they’re ready, and letting them practice until mastered, your child excels at every level. Our Omaha Montessori teachers emphasize process rather than product.

RESPONDING RESPECTFULLY WITH RIE© EDUCARING©
The RIE® Educaring® approach encourages responding to your child respectfully. We are the only Omaha preschool that boasts this additional education level and training for the teaching team that guides your child every day.

PRESCHOOL PROGRAM | 2.5 TO 6 YEARS

MONTESSORI MATERIALS THAT TEACH THROUGH EXPLORATION

Your child is free to choose activities guided by their curiosity, to develop their strengths and talents. Montessori materials also have built-in challenges, so your child develops critical thinking, creativity, and problem-solving skills. Our Omaha Montessori Preschool values the whole child and their interests.

MULTI-AGE CLASSROOMS HELP YOUR CHILD LEARN FROM PEERS
In a multi-age classroom, your child gains inspiration from older students and becomes a leader for younger students. A diverse mini-community helps your child learn through seeing empathy and kindness in action, preparing them for adulthood.

SELF-LED LEARNING BUILDS CRITICAL THINKING SKILLS
Montessori-educated teachers give equal parts guidance, structure, flexibility, and freedom. Your child practices reasoning as they question, probe, and make connections, growing into enthusiastic, self-directed learners.

My wife and I have nothing but positive things to say about The Childrens House. We know our daughter has so much available to her when it comes to fun and interactive learning/education. She continues to come home with excitement of what she had learned that day and you can tell a lot from a place when your 3-year-old constantly reports so much excitement and asks every morning (literally) if there is school today and when we let her know it is indeed a school day, her response is always, “Yayyyyy!!!” We are so grateful for the entire staff at Childrens House and to the staff leadership team (Ms Desiree, Ms Molly, Ms Donna and Ms Meghan). We are reassured on a daily basis, we made the right decision to bring our daughter to this school as we know she is safely cared for and will also be enrolling our youngest once she turns of age. The Childrens House is another family to us!

We have had such a wonderful experience with the Children’s House. The teaching leadership team in all classrooms (Ms Donna/Ms Meghan, Ms Molly & Ms Desiree) has provided stability and expertise for many many years. We know our kiddos are walking into a learning environment that is fun and safe and where they are loved and supported each and every day.

My husband and I are new to Montessori but already we believe we have chosen a perfect fit for our daughter. The staff has made an enormous effort to get to know our family as well as make accommodations for our daughter’s medical needs. However, what struck me most during our short time here was how these individuals go above and beyond to care for the children and their families. I had provided a bag of 40 ounces of frozen breastmilk just in case our daughter needed extra throughout the day. Anyway, with the recent storms in Omaha, one of our daughter’s teachers went out of her way to check on the breastmilk that morning after the storms had passed and found that the power was out and my breastmilk had begun to thaw. Once I was informed about the situation by the lead instructor, the same wonderful teacher made another special trip out to our center so that we could attempt to save/utilize the breastmilk. All of this occurred on a Saturday. Fortunately, thanks to their efforts, my breastmilk was able to be refrozen per CDC’s guidelines and will be able to be utilized in the future. So, in short, we are very impressed with the care our family receives here and by our daughter’s teachers. We are incredibly excited to watch her grow and develop under the care of these wonderful instructors.
