Our Team

Director: Ms. Jenn

Hello, my name is Jenn S. I’ve worked with Kids’ Stop for 10+ years and have worn many hats within the company. My husband and I moved here from Ontario to be adventurous and see if we liked it, and over 10 years later we are still here!

We have a spunky full-of-sass 9 year old daughter and crazy 2 year old French Bulldog who keep us on our toes. We love the outdoors and spending time in the mountains.

Currently you will find me at our Auburn Bay location, where we have a great team who truly enjoys being with children, and watching them learn and develop.

Director: Ms. Jen B.

My name is Jenalyn Africano Balang, you can call me Jen. I graduated from University Of Rizal System in Philippines, with a Bachelor Secondary of Education. I also finished a Caregiving course with Childcare Development, and I have worked in Junior High and taught children with disabilities.

I moved to Canada back in 2008, and leaving my students felt like leaving my own family. I love arts and crafts, and I also enjoy sharing in fun activities with children. I also love singing! I am married and have one child.

I am the Assistant Director of Kids’ Stop Children’s Centre. Early on I worked in the yellow room here as a teacher, but I decided to apply as an Assistant Director to show my compassion and dedication in other ways; to inspire the educators and to help the centre as best that I can. The camaraderie in our center makes us unique and fabulous!

Testimonials

Our girls have been going to Kids Stop since they opened in Auburn Bay. Our youngest has been there since she turned 1 years old and our oldest since she was 4. They are now 4 and 7. We have always felt they are cared for, loved, do fun activities, served delicious snacks and overall are excited to be at daycare. They have met their best friends at daycare and have amazing memories.

We cannot say enough about our son's time at Kids' Stop. Our son adores his friends and teachers, and it is obvious he is very well supported there. We are absolutely blown away by the daily science experiments (for example, made fake blood plasma using corn syrup, rice as platelets, cinnamon hearts for red blood cells, and kidney beans for white blood cells, discussed the make-up of blood). Every day is a new craft, activity, or culture to learn about. Our son has become very confident in speaking up, and I fully attribute this to the educator encouraging each child to speak publicly in front of the class during show and tell each week. It is an extremely supportive environment and we have seen great growth in our child this year!

I couldn't be any happier with my decision to put my daughter in the care of Kids’ Stop. I was terrified to be away from her but they made the transition very easy. All the staff are super friendly and welcoming. The portal that they have makes me feel at ease as they send pictures and you're able to message them at any time. If you're looking for a great daycare this is it!
