Kids & Company is Hopkins Public Schools' premiere before- and after-school care program for children in kindergarten through fifth-grade. A fee-based program, Kids & Company is offered in all six of the District's six elementary schools. As well as limited locations on non-school days.
Kids & Company believes that every child deserves a safe, fun, and enriching environment where they can grow, learn, and thrive. We’re not just a childcare program—we’re a vibrant community that fosters curiosity, creativity, and a love of learning.

Whether your child is joining us for a day of after-school fun or spending the summer with us, they’ll enjoy exciting activities, hands-on projects, and tons of opportunities to discover something new.
From arts and crafts to games, outdoor adventures, and academic enrichment, our programs are designed to engage every child’s imagination and nurture their unique talents. We focus on building confidence, independence, and teamwork while ensuring that your little one has a blast along the way!
Let’s make memories that last a lifetime!
