First Step Learning Center has proudly served Nebraska City, NE, and surrounding communities since 2001 as the area’s trusted provider of early childhood education and childcare services. We specialize in nurturing children from 6 weeks to 9 years old, offering a safe, supportive environment where they can grow, learn, and thrive. Our experienced and passionate educators are dedicated to delivering high-quality, play-based education that promotes cognitive, emotional, social, and physical development. Through hands-on activities and customized lesson plans, we prepare children not only for academic success but also to become confident, curious, and collaborative learners. At First Step, we recognize the critical role early learning plays in shaping a child’s future. Our comprehensive preschool program is designed to build essential skills—such as critical thinking and problem-solving—while fostering a lifelong love of learning. We also provide flexible childcare options for working families, ensuring a warm, secure, and enriching “home away from home.” We value strong partnerships with parents and believe that open communication and collaboration are key to every child’s success. As a proud member of the Nebraska City community, we’re committed to maintaining the highest standards through continuous professional development, curriculum innovation, and a deep commitment to each child’s well-being.
