Our Story: More Than a Centre — A Family

Helen & Ben was created by young parents who deeply understand the joys and challenges of raising little learners. Inspired by their children, Helena Yasmeen and Hayder Benjamin, founder Nurfatin Husna dreamed of a childcare environment that felt safe, warm, creative and truly child-centered.

 

What started as a vision for a “home-like centre” has now grown into a trusted community for families who value both academic growth and emotional wellbeing. Today, Helen & Ben continues to grow with the same heart, a centre built by parents, for parents.

Our Mission

To provide a safe, enriching and joyful environment that nurtures curiosity, creativity and character — while building strong partnerships with families.

Our Core Values

At Helen & Ben, our core values are built around the word

C.H.I.L.D.R.E.N, reflecting the heart of what we believe in and who we serve. These values guide every decision, every classroom experience, and every interaction with our children and families.

Respect for All

We foster mutual respect, inclusivity and appreciation for diversity. Every child is valued, heard and celebrated for their individuality.
