Our Kids & Company Eagleson centre is big, bright, and beautiful. It is one of four Kids & Company Ottawa locations and opened in May of 2014. We offer programs for infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and school-age children. Our classrooms have huge windows and our days are brightened by all of our natural light. We have a large open concept space dedicated to playing and learning with activity centres filled with age-appropriate toys that create an engaging and happy environment. Outside, our brand new playground is equipped with plenty of outdoor toys and a soft rubber ground to keep our children safe and busy while they explore, play and discover. It offers our children plenty of space to run around, bike, or practice their Munchkinetics physical activity programs outside. Our proprietary programs at Kids & Company including Alpha-Mania (pre-literacy), Mini Masters (art and creativity), and Munchkinetics are specially designed to engage our children in a unique, interactive learning process. Through song, dance, music, and art, our children learn in an environment that encourages self-expression, creativity, coordination and most importantly, fun! Did you know we have camp programs for school-age kids? Sign up for a day, a few days, a week or the entire summer and let them explore their communities, stretch their minds and build lasting friendships! Find out more here. Kids & Company is a proud member of the Ottawa Chamber of Commerce.
There is a public parking lot here on site, in front of the building.
Meet the Director
My name is Erin Savard and I am the Director at the Kids & Company Eagleson centre. I am a recipient of an Early Childhood Education diploma from St. Lawrence College and have been in the child care field for over 13 years. To tell you more about myself, I am happily married and my husband is an active member of the Canadian Military. We have 2 boys, Logan and Declan who I love spending time with. We enjoy going on hikes, bike rides, camping and swimming in the summer. Now that you know a bit about me, I would love to meet you and your family! Join us for a visit so you can see for yourself how Kids & Company can provide the right care and education for your child.
At Kids & Company, we work with your family to ensure that the transition is a smooth one. Before your child’s first day, we’ll provide information on what to expect. We’ll create an integration schedule that is right for your child and every day that your child is in the classroom, you’ll receive a daily report that lets you know how your child’s day was. You’ll also be able to see him or her on our in classroom web cameras. The Centre Director will even send you an email before the end of the day if your child has a special “wow” moment that day.
Toddlers learn best in the context of relationships within small groups. There are fewer distractions and children’s activities are more focused. In Kids & Company toddler classrooms, our small groups allow very young children to make connections, form caring relationships, and learn to understand other children.
All two-year-olds examine everything they see, hear, feel and observe in an attempt to make sense of the world around them. In our preschool programs, Kids & Company teachers interact, observe and interpret the interests of preschool students to encourage further discoveries by planning activities and investigations that expand your child’s learning.
Kids & Company runs comprehensive kindergarten programs designed for children who are 4 or 5 years old (junior and senior kindergarten age) to prepare them for Grade 1. Using emergent curriculum techniques to adapt to the children’s’ interests and skills, we set a foundation of early literacy, numeracy, artistry, and the construction of relationships and ideas. Kindergarten programs are integrated into full-time child care to provide convenience and continuity.
Select Kids & Company locations offer school age programming for children ages 6-12 (Grades 1 – 6). Whether you have a younger child attending a Kids & Company location and you’d like the convenience of picking up your children in the same location or you’d like a program that’s run by trusted educators, Kids & Company school age programs may be right for your child.
