Bright Beginnings at OLPH Preschool
Building a foundation of faith, wonder, and learning in Scottsdale, Arizona.
Inspiring Curiosity and Confidence in Young Learners
At Our Lady of Perpetual Help Catholic School, our preschool program offers a joyful introduction to faith-filled learning. Designed for children ages 3–5, OLPH Preschool nurtures the whole child — academically, spiritually, socially, and emotionally — through hands-on discovery, prayer, and play. Guided by caring teachers and grounded in Catholic values, children build confidence, kindness, and a love for learning that lasts a lifetime.
Every Child’s Journey Begins with Discovery, Joy, and Faith
Our Lady of Perpetual Help (OLPH) Preschool is a licensed childcare facility, providing a warm, faith-filled foundation where children feel loved, safe, and inspired to learn. Every day is filled with hands-on discovery, guided play, and early lessons in kindness, responsibility, and faith. Our teachers blend joyful learning with the core values of Catholic education — helping each child grow intellectually, socially, emotionally, and spiritually.
We understand that every child develops at their own pace, which is why OLPH offers three levels of preschool designed to meet children where they are. From first friendships and story time to early academics and prayer, every moment helps nurture curiosity, confidence, and a love for learning that lasts a lifetime. By the time our preschoolers enter kindergarten, they’re not just ready to succeed — they’re eager to shine.
Preschool (3–4-Year-Olds)
Our Preschool program provides a gentle introduction to the classroom environment.

Pre-Kindergarten (4–5-Year-Olds)
Our Pre-Kindergarten program builds on the preschool foundation to ensure children are fully prepared for success in kindergarten. With a balance of structured learning and play-based exploration, Pre-K students deepen their skills in reading readiness, number sense, and problem-solving while continuing to grow in faith, kindness, and confidence.
Focus areas: early reading and writing, hands-on STEM play, leadership and cooperation, and daily practice of Catholic values.
