About Us
Your Child Is In Great Hands
Welcome to Helena's Early Learning Playhouse! As a licensed home through the Texas Health Human Services Commission, I, Helena Hortman, am thrilled to provide a safe and nurturing environment for up to 12 children, ages 6 weeks to 6 years.
I'm excited to have my wonderful daughter, Briana, assisting me each day, which means more personalized attention and a safer setting for your little ones. With our amazing team, including my husband Kevin and our first full-time employee, Christina, we ensure an enriching experience for every child while maintaining a low caregiver-to-child ratio.
Check out our Educators page for more details about our passionate team!

Get ready for an amazing experience! We’re excited to provide your child with a safe and cozy space where they can play, learn, and grow with loving guidance. Our early learning home is all about play-based fun! Through a dynamic mix of art, songs, stories, games, and themed days, your child will engage in a variety of activities that will nurture their intellectual, social, emotional, physical, and spiritual development. Let the adventure begin!
Philosophy
Health & Safety
The health and safety of our children and ourselves is our number one priority, and we're excited to share the proactive measures we have in place to keep germs and illnesses at bay! Here's a quick rundown of our current practices (which may evolve with new state guidelines):
*Parents are required to reach out to me if their child or anyone at home is feeling unwell, so we can ensure a safe environment for all!
*Toys and surfaces are thoroughly washed, sanitized, and/or disinfected daily, exceeding the minimum state standards! During times children show symptoms like a runny nose or cough, we ramp up our cleaning efforts even more.
*Children and staff wash their hands consistently—I like to say, "before and after everything!"—to maintain our high hygiene standards.
*Clothing for both children and staff is promptly changed if any bodily fluid comes into contact, ensuring everyone stays fresh and clean!
Together, we create a safe and healthy space for our little ones to thrive!
