At Smart Start Preschool we strive to teach the whole child; to live, to be kind, and to grow. We feature a variety of activities designed to teach children a wide range of developmental skills. Along with our emphasis on social development, children will also learn the academic basics recommended to prepare them for Kindergarten.

Our School
Smart Start Preschool has been providing early childhood education to children from Weyburn and area since 1996. Ms. Kenda and Ms. Natalie took over ownership in September 2018. At that time, Smart Start Preschool was relocated to the newly renovated space in the Weyburn Free Methodist Church located at
133 14th Street NE, Weyburn, SK
(next to the Don Mitchell Tot Lot).
Ms Kenda
Kenda Kittelson has lived in Weyburn since 2013, and has grown to love the community! Ms. Kenda and her husband Shane have three beautiful children, Destah, Rhett, and Tate. She is originally from Estevan, however, moved to Regina in 2001 where she completed high school. Following high school she attended the University of Regina where she obtained her Bachelors degree in Business Administration. She worked in the accounting field for several years before starting a family. Since their first child was born, she has been fortunate to be able to stay home with her children. It has been in these past 8 years, as she has been raising her family, that she has come to realize that her true passion is Early Childhood Education. "I have always loved teaching my own children and I am thrilled that I have the opportunity to teach other children now as well. The preschool is something I am very passionate about and I am so grateful to be doing what I love." Ms Kenda has completed training in Early Childhood Education and will forever be a lifelong learner. She is certified in First Aid and CPR.
Ms Natalie
Natalie Gray lives in Weyburn with her husband Kelvin and their three kids Mya , Dominik, and Dexter. Ms. Natalie was born and raised in the small town of Zenon Park, Saskatchewan. She was fortunate to attend a French Immersion School from preschool through grade 12 and is fluent in both English and French. In 2003 she moved to Regina where she received her Diploma in Cosmetology along with her Journey person certification. In 2010 her husband’s job brought them to Weyburn. In 2015, after their youngest was born, Natalie made the decision to begin operating a day home which allowed her to be at home with her own kids. This lead into the opportunity to link arms with Kenda as the co-owner of Smart Start Preschool and grow a passion for teaching. "Helping kids in their early years to expand their minds, to learn to be respectful, well mannered and kind is a true blessing. We are so grateful to all the families who continue to choose Smart Start Preschool." Ms Natalie has a Diploma in Child Psychology and is also certified in First Aid and CPR.
