What Our Families Say

Britt - Kids Ko Mom

My daughter attended Kids Ko Summer Camp in 2022. It was her first experience at camp so we were both nervous! The team at Kids Ko when above & beyond to make sure the experience was incredible for us both. My daughter ended up going for half the summer, she loved it so much!

Blake & Corey

We fell in love with Kids Ko when our son attended their preschool program. Naturally, the next best thing was to enrol him in a couple of weeks of summer camp. They do a really great job at creating fun and exciting activities for the children - and the different themed weeks are a nice way to implement some variation & adventure. We are always greeted with friendly and familiar faces, and we are excited to be part of the community that Kids Ko has created!
