Kids & Company

We are a reputable early learning and child care provider with locations across Canada and the US. At Kids & Company, we use an emergent curriculum and learn through play philosophy. We're very proud of our proprietary programs! They include Alpha-Mania (pre-literacy and early reading), Mini Masters (art) and Munchkinetics (movement) and are designed to engage our children in a learning process that encourages self-expression, creativity, coordination and most importantly, fun! You'll find sign language in our infant and toddler rooms, and all our children participate in music, French, science, exploration and creative play throughout the day. All of our food is planned by a chef and nutritionist and prepared fresh daily in the Kidco Kitchen. Our menus are created with diversity and nutrition at their core and our children engage in family-style dining, empowering them to make their own food choices and develop self-help skills. Our meal plans are tied into our nutrition curriculum, where the children learn about food, where it comes from and how our bodies use it.
