HELPING HANDS PRESCHOOL - South Edmonton's LEARN THROUGH PLAY Nursery School for Childrens Ages 3-5 in Old Strathcona

We are a uniquely diverse and inclusive program for children ages three to five. We provide a safe, nurturing and stimulating environment where children can grow to their full potential through:
  • Quality programming with a focus on each individual child's needs and interests
  • Whole child development wherein each child is nurtured emotionally, socially, physically, creatively, and intellectually
  • A "learning-through-play approach" with weekly thematic units

What We Offer

 Three, four and five-year-old children use play as a way to discover and master skills needed in the world. 

We strive to provide a safe, nurturing environment where children are actively engaged in learning.

 Young children need a variety of opportunities to look, touch, hear and move in order to facilitate this learning.
