School-Age Programs
Select Kids & Company locations offer School-Age Programming for children ages 5-12 (Grades 1–6).Programming is run by trusted educators who are focused on each child’s unique developmental needs through a combination of fun and educational programming. As with our child care offering, we offer flexible schedules and prepared lunches and snacks as part of our School-Age Programs. Our School-Age programs include: Before and After School Care, School Break Care and Summer Camp. See details below.
Before and After School Care
Select Kids & Company centres offer Before and After School Care for children aged 5-12.
Social settings for your children, with academic support. Spaces exist for children to play with others, seek out quiet time after a busy day, or creatively express themselves through arts, drama, or imaginative play. Homework help and academic support are available. Within the classroom, interactive books, games and planned activities play a key role in enhancing cognitive development and mental acuteness. Drop-off is open anytime after the centre opens and before 9:00 AM and pick-up is open anytime after 4:00 PM and until the centre closes. Centre hours vary slightly so check your location for exact times.
School Break Programming
For families that need care over scheduled school breaks, Kids & Company offers coverage for school-age children aged 5-12. We operate on PD days, March Break, and over the Winter Holidays with the exception of statutory holidays and weekends.
Summer Camp
Kids & Company offers School-Age Summer Camp programs for children ages 6–12 at select locations. Our unique programming is tailored to the children’s interests and allows them to explore their passions and learn lifelong skills. Operation start dates vary per region – please contact us at backup@kidsandcompany.com for further information.
Exciting and educational activities.
- We have exciting on-site activities planned around each week’s theme, including pottery, drama, cooking, science — which provides hands-on STEM experiences — and an environmental/sustainability program that fosters meaningful connection to the environment.
- Every Wednesday, our children will adventure off-site and enjoy a field trip to various museums, libraries, zoos, local parks, and bowling alleys!
Programs are run by Camp Counsellors and ECEs. Our expert ECEs and camp counsellors have developed impactful programming to ensure the children have a summer camp experience they will remember — they know how to combine education with fun.
Meals are taken care of. The Kidco Kitchen provides school-age children with a healthy lunch, two snacks and a Grab n’ Go snack for the ride home. A packed lunch will be provided on Wednesdays for the off-site trips.
Extended hours and a single drop-off. Our School-Age Camp programs run from 7AM-6PM, generally in line with a typical workday. Plus, a single drop-off and pick-up for both younger and older children affords you more time and less running around each day.
It’s flexible. Sign up for a single day here or there, a week, or for the whole summer!
COVID-19 Vaccination Policy: At Kids and Company, we will not be requiring our campers to be vaccinated. Our diligent sanitization routines have continued to keep both children and staff in our care safe throughout the pandemic. Directors at each location will continue to stay up to date on all local public health guidelines to ensure health and safety are being monitored as directed. The COVID-19 policies will be followed based on local public health requirements. Similarly to school boards, parents will be required to complete a health screening each morning to ensure children attending camp do not have symptoms or certain exposures to the COVID-19 virus.
