Our Kids & Company Milton location is located on the North side of town at 433 Steeles Ave East Suite 201 which is directly at Ontario Street and Steeles Ave. We have 9 classrooms that can accommodate up to 117 children who range in age from infants to our “big kids, ”who are school age. Our centre is bright, colourful and spacious. We overlook the escarpment and our rooftop playscape offers a beautiful view and the opportunity to play outside and experience all the seasons. A typical day at Milton includes unique proprietary programs such as Alpha-Mania (pre-literacy), Munchkinetics (movement), Music, French or Mini Masters (art). We have a fantastic group of teachers who work hard to create a stimulating, safe and nurturing environment for our children.
Four reserved Kids and Company parking spots are located at the back of the building in front of the doors. There may also be limited parking through out the parking lot both at the front and back of the building. Please note that our main entrance is located at the back of the building second floor.
Meet the Director
I am Melissa Luyiga, the Centre Director of Kids & Company Milton. I have an Early Childhood Educator diploma. I have been working in child care for 14 years, and I have been working with Kids & Company since 2007. I have always loved caring for children since I was a little girl. I also love being a leader, and lending a helping hand wherever necessary. I have a loving husband named Johnson and I have 2 beautiful children of my own. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, or relaxing by reading, or knitting. My favourite thing about the Kids & Company Milton location is how we take care of each other and are always willing to step up and help as needed. What makes our centre unique is that we have a playground on the rooftop, so we have “mountain views.” Kids & Company offers parents extremely flexible and quality care! We can accommodate any situation to your needs. I hope when people see our centre, they can see how much we care and pay attention to all the little details that make such a difference. Now that you know a little more about me, I hope to see you and your family soon!
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.
