About Us

Jericho Kids’ Club (JKC) is a non-profit society that offers before and after-school care for children in Kindergarten to Age 12. We provide morning and afternoon care during instructional school days, as well as full day care during professional days for children at Bayview Community Elementary, General Gordon Elementary and Southlands Elementary. Additionally, we offer full-day camps during the Winter, Spring, and Summer breaks.

Jericho Kids’ Club is committed to providing a quality program, based on social emotional learning that is fun!

Staff do their best to fulfill the mandate of the Mission statement. We try to be excellent role models and have great attitudes every day! Programs are planned to ensure that Jericho Kids’ Club is a safe, challenging and exciting place to be.

Children are encouraged to be responsible for their daily attitudes, actions, efforts and behaviours. They will have opportunities to provide input, feedback and planning of the activities and events.

Families are vital to the success of the organization. Please talk to us on a regular basis – let us know how your child is doing and what you think about the program.
