Learning Environment
Where Learning Is Fun
Learning Centers Area
Helena's Early Learning Playhouse, where we create a vibrant and engaging learning environment just for your little ones! Our dedicated learning centers area features a spacious room filled with exciting centers like dramatic play, blocks, music, library, writing, science, manipulatives, art, and a cozy space for our littlest infants to explore. With a delightful eating area and a calming spot for emotional learning, your child will thrive here! Our small kitchen is perfect for preparing delicious meals and ensuring playtime isn't interrupted with handwashing and toy cleaning. We've made the bathroom easily accessible for the children to access on their own and to change diapers while still supervising the children. And for our older children, nap time is a cozy experience with their own cot and a choice of a cuddly friend from our beloved Cuddle Buddy collection. They adore picking their favorites each week! Get ready for an amazing learning adventure!
Entrance and Living Room
At Helena's Early Learning Playhouse, the entrance leads straight into our living room! Since my own children are grown, I'm excited to transform this space into a cozy adult retreat while still keeping it fun and engaging for the children. Each child will have their own cubby and hook, making it easy for them to store their belongings as they dive into our learning centers. For our tiniest learners under one year old, we’ve created a safe haven with pack 'n plays strategically placed so they can always be seen and heard, ensuring they feel secure while we focus on activities. The living room also features a TV, which will be thoughtfully and only occasionally used for educational videos and exercise routines, all in line with TX minimum standards. This space is perfect for group activities, fostering a sense of community and fun. Don’t forget to check out our parent board right inside the front door for all essential, including my license and updates. You'll also find closings and important information post by or on the front door.
Dining Room/Kitchen
Our family dining room and kitchen is perfect for occasional activities and meal prep, while our learning area kitchen is set for family-style dining, tailored to the ages of the children. Children will enjoy three scrumptious meals a day – breakfast, lunch, and a tasty afternoon snack – all featuring a 10-week cycle menu packed with nutritious variety! We’re more than happy to accommodate any food or milk substitutions for allergies or preferences, just let us know in advance so we can prepare the best options for everyone. Plus, our dining room is a fantastic hub for cooking activities, creative art projects, and homework sessions, complete with a cozy dining table and a stylish bar height table for your little ones to enjoy! Family-style dining isn’t just about the food; It’s a wonderful opportunity for children to learn valuable social skills, develop healthy eating habits, and build a sense of community!

After working in traditional care centers with plastic playgrounds for years, I wanted to bring the magic of nature to life, just like I experienced growing up in the countryside.

*A sand box complete with playhouses, a mud kitchen, and accessories of all kinds for imaginative play!
*A mulch area with logs perfect for walking, balancing, and lounging around!
*A garden area for planting and watering, featuring a weather station and a charming wood and rock path!
*A trike/car/scooter track with traffic signs, complete with a water trough for splashing fun and an open playhouse for boundless creativity!
*A music wall made from home items transformed into musical instruments and a set of drums for endless music!
*An infant/toddler play area that's safely fenced in with turf for endless fun!
*A spacious grassy area for balls, hula hoops, running, games, and more!
*A cozy library nook filled with books and comfy seating!
*A manipulative box packed with large waffle blocks, Lincoln logs, and big Legos for creative building!

*(Work in progress) An art area featuring a chalkboard, painting canvas, and more!
On rainy days or during code yellow/red alerts, we’ll take fun to the front porch if possible. If the weather doesn’t cooperate, we’ll keep the energy up indoors with active play, including exercise videos tailored to our little ones! Let’s celebrate the importance of outdoor play together!
