Description: Our mission at KidsCo, Inc. is to provide a safe and comfortable place where all children are allowed to explore their creativity and make choices. It is a place where the children, as well as their parents, have a relationship with the KidsCo team members, and feel a sense of family and community. Above all, our primary goal is to create a program that fits the needs and desires of the children who participate in the KidsCo program!
Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.
