Meet Your Provider
Kim's Kids Daycare was established after careful consideration by me, Kim Rutherford in May, 2002 and has been up and running ever since! I have 3 children of my own, ages 19, 16, and 15, 2 of whom are homeschooled, and have worked for many years implementing and administering children's programming in some of the local area churches. (The Life Centre on Innes Road, and City Church in Vanier) All in all I have been working with kids for 20 years now.

I have been married for 21 years, and have been living with my husband here in the east end of Ottawa for that time. As a stay-at-home Mom for all those years I have developed a great support network for my kids and yours! We have connections to playgroups, swimming, gymnastics, field trips and more. Lots of fun and learning happen here!

About our Daycare

Kim's Kids strives to provide a safe and loving family-style atmosphere for your child. Your child will be introduced into our family, and will be loved by all!

As a family daycare we do not provide a pet free or nut free environment, as we love dogs and peanut butter here! We have three six year old beagles named Cassidy and Lola and Rocky,  that may interact with your child on a limited, supervised basis. All the beagles have excellent temperments with young children (and adults too!) , and are current on all vaccinations.

My Philosophy:
The philosophy of my Family Child Care Home is built upon my family values. I offer a safe, loving, nurturing, small group learning environment.I believe that a smaller group offers better care. I offer a variety of activities that promote physical, cognitive, social and emotional growth daily. I provide guidance and discipline in a positive atmosphere. My program provides a hands-on environment allowing them to explore and learn at their own pace, thereby, enhancing each child's individual growth and development. My main goal is my philosophy, "Learning through Play".
