Emergent Curriculum: A Play-based Approach to Early Learning
At Kids & Company, we follow an emergent approach to curriculum—a child-centered, play-based way of learning that begins with careful observation of children’s interests, questions, and developmental cues. Rather than relying on rigid, pre-set lesson plans, our educators observe what each child is drawn to and create meaningful, individualized learning opportunities that build on those interests. This responsive approach supports deeper engagement and learning by meeting children where they are—academically, socially, and emotionally.
Daily Digital Reporting
You’ll receive daily reports on what your child eats, their nap times, curriculum activities, milestones and more. Delivering mid-day smiles as well as important insight into your child’s day.
Webcams
Password-protected web cameras are installed in each classroom and provide a real-time video feed of your child’s day.
Nutritious meals & snacks
Children enjoy snacks prepared by our Kidco Kitchen — made from scratch with no additives, preservatives, or artificial flavours or colours.
Health & Safety
Every classroom follows rigorous health and safety protocols, tailored to meet local licensing and regional public health requirements. Your child’s well-being is always our top priority.
Families appreciate the convenience of having child care right inside the school and the benefit of regular access to the school gym. Children enjoy safe, active play in a familiar and supportive environment and engaging physical activity year round.
Eco-Healthy Child Care Endorsed
Our centre is proudly endorsed by Eco-Healthy Child Care®, a program that partners with child care professionals to eliminate environmental hazards in early learning settings with the goal of protecting the health of children and staff.
Meet the Director
Carmina Losande
My name is Carmina Losande, and I am the Centre Director at Kids & Company’s Baturyn and St. Charles locations. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in English and Literature and have been working in child care for five years. I love working with children and being part of their growth. Children can be challenging, but they are always fun and rewarding to work with. I enjoy being at Kids & Company because of the wonderful people I work with. We truly feel like a family here. Both the Baturyn and St. Charles locations are inside the school, giving us direct access to the gym and playground. No school bus is necessary, as we drop off and pick up the children directly from their classrooms.
