Becca Najera, Director
New Prague Early Childhood Academy

Hi, I’m Becca Najera, the Director at Early Childhood Academy – New Prague! I’ve been part of this incredible center since 2019, and I absolutely love watching our teachers and children grow and learn every day.

I earned my Bachelor’s Degree from the University of Minnesota – Twin Cities, and I’m passionate about helping children build confidence, curiosity, and a love for learning.

At home, I live in New Prague with my husband and our sweet dog, Stella. In my free time, I enjoy watching sports, reading, camping, and spending time with family. I can’t wait to meet you and help make your child’s early years full of joy, discovery, and learning!
