Our Centre

Welcome to Kids & Company Aurora!

Our location is located at the northeast corner of Wellington St. East and Industrial Parkway in the Wellington Business Centre Plaza. We have two playgrounds, with one designed specifically for toddlers and the other for preschoolers. We also have a beautiful park, trails, a splash pad and a public library nearby that offer great options for occasional field trips.

Our location 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. 

We have 9 classrooms that can accommodate 134 children from 2 months to 5 years old in our Infant, Toddler, Preschool, and Kindergarten programs. Families have the option of full-time, part-time, or backup care. You’ll also find our on-site parking is steps away from the entrance and makes drop-off and pick-up easy for parents and caregivers.

To keep up to date on your child’s day, we provide caregivers access to password-protected webcams located in each classroom.

We provide our children with a hot lunch and 3 snacks each day, catered by our Kidco Kitchen. The Kidco Kitchen is founded on a fresh-from-scratch philosophy and our food contains no additives, preservatives, artificial flavours or colours. Learn more here.

Meet the Director

My name is Larissa Lavalley, and I am the Centre Director at Kids & Company Aurora. I have a diploma in Early Childhood Education, a degree in Child Development with high honours, and a post-graduate certificate in Early Childhood Administration. I have been working in child care for nearly 15 years! My passion for working in child care stems from the rewarding experience of watching children grow and flourish. Every child is unique and wonderful in their own way and I love seeing their potential and growth. What I love most about working with Kids & Company is the backstory of the founders, Victoria Sopik and Jennifer Nashmi. These two strong women, each with their families, came together to provide necessary and high-quality child care for many communities, building something legendary. I am excited to work with the wonderful team at the Aurora location.

Programs Offered

  • Infants
    • day care center

      Kids & Company’s Infant program welcomes newborns up to roughly 15 months. Infants learn about the world around them through their senses, so exploration is critical to their development. Nurturing educators support the children while they take in their surroundings, encouraging them to experience everything the classroom offers; be it creative art, exploring with blocks, listening to songs or engaging in story-time. Our infant program encourages children to follow their own established routines, while becoming comfortable and secure in a new group setting.

  • Toddlers
    • Child learning with early childhood educator

      Kids & Company’s Toddler program is for children between the ages of roughly 15 months and 2.9 years. Toddlers are mobile and eager to explore their environment. As they strive for independence, our educators use an Emergent curriculum approach to learning that supports each child’s individuality. Some of the most important learning outcomes of our toddler program are language development, socialization, self-help skills, and the development of fine and gross motor skills.
