Our North Vancouver location is close to Capilano Mall, near the intersection of Marine Dr. and Hamilton Ave. and a few minutes from the Lions Gate Bridge. We are easily accessible by car or transit and have 8 on-site parking spots for easy drop-offs and pick-ups.
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 5 classrooms that can accommodate 68 children. We offer full-time care for children ages 0-5 years.
At Kids & Company, we use an emergent curriculum and learn-through-play philosophy. This means classrooms are equipped with educational toys and Early Childhood Educators are there to readily guide children as their interests emerge. Classrooms are also equipped with password-protected webcams that parents can access throughout the day.
Our centre has high ceilings and large windows, creating an inviting and spacious atmosphere. Outside, we have a colourful and large fenced-in playground that has sunny and shady spots to enjoy year-round.
Something else that makes our location particularly special is our preschool ski lessons in the winter months! From November to January, we visit Grouse Mountain once a week and spend the day developing skills and having fun on the slopes.
Children are provided with a hot lunch and 3 snacks each day, catered by our in-house 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 Cathy Choi, and I am the Centre Director at Kids & Company’s North Vancouver location. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in English from Korea and spent time studying in New Zealand, which broadened my cultural perspective and strengthened my communication skills. I later pursued Early Childhood Education in Vancouver, combining international education, language skills, and child-development training to support families with empathy, lead my team effectively, and create a nurturing environment where children can thrive. I have been working in child care for over seven years.
I am passionate about early childhood education because I believe in the power of early experiences to shape a child’s confidence, curiosity, and sense of belonging. I love building secure attachments with children, supporting their development, and creating a safe, loving environment where they feel understood.
What I enjoy most about Kids & Company is the opportunity to make a meaningful impact every day. Guiding and mentoring my team ensures each child receives responsive, high-quality care. Watching children grow socially, emotionally, and developmentally reminds me why this work is so rewarding.
Our location is unique because of the strong teamwork and mutual respect among our educators. We support one another, share laughter, and step in whenever needed. This collaborative, positive atmosphere creates a welcoming environment for both staff and families and directly reflects the quality of care we provide.
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.
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.
Kids & Company’s Preschool program is designed for children between the ages of roughly 2.9 - 6 years. Our educators interact, observe and interpret the interests of our children to encourage discoveries. Our Preschool program provides a foundation for developing greater independence and problem-solving skills; the program integrates new concepts into our children’s world view, promotes sharing and mutual respect, and prepares them for Kindergarten.
