Cookiddoo · Kids' cooking studio
A kids-only cooking studio in Kanata where children aged 4 to 15 cook from scratch and parents get two hours back.
Cookiddoo is a cooking school for children in Kanata, at the western edge of Ottawa. Children aged 4 to 15 cook dishes from scratch in a real kitchen, and the studio is clear about who does the work: its chefs guide and mentor, while the children do everything else themselves. On its own Our Story page the studio calls itself the only kids-only cooking studio in west Ottawa.
A master class runs about two hours and is capped at ten children, so each one gets enough of a chef's attention. It is a drop-off format — parents leave their child in the studio kitchen and come back at the end. Everyone is given a branded apron and hat for the session, and each child goes home with a personalised recipe.
Around those single workshops sits a fuller programme: multi-week Junior Chef courses, full-day culinary camps for ages 7 to 13 in a nut-free kitchen, birthday parties, themed and family classes, and cooking programmes for schools and daycares run either at the Kanata studio or in the school's own classroom. The studio's menu also lists gift certificates, an online shop, party and corporate catering, and balloon decoration for events. Classes are offered in English and in French, and the website is published in English, French, Ukrainian and Russian.
Cookiddoo publishes its own reviews page, where it quotes a Google rating of 4.7 stars from 28 reviews and links straight to the profile so the full, unedited reviews can be read at the source. The same page answers the complaint that comes up most often — that the studio is hard to find the first time — with a parent's own directions to the door. The drop-off model is also offered to franchise partners in other Canadian cities, with training, curriculum, branding and marketing supplied by the Kanata flagship.
At UAFest, Cookiddoo appears in the festival's own record as a vendor in 2025 and 2026.
Hands-on kids cooking classes/workshops, birthday parties, seasonal camps and school events; culinary-studio franchise.
A single stand-alone session for ages 4 to 15, about two hours, from $55 per child, with up to ten children per class; themed classes such as patisserie or sushi are priced higher and each date on the schedule shows its own price.
A recurring multi-week programme where skills build from one session to the next, including a one-month evening course for ages 6 to 14; the studio quotes $389 for a full course.
Full days from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. for ages 7 to 13, eleven places, $320, in a nut-free kitchen — a savoury dish and a dessert each day, lunch and snacks made and eaten by the children, a recipe booklet to take home; run as PA day, winter, March break, summer and holiday camps.
A birthday in the shape of a cooking class at the Kanata studio, quoted at $385 with a $150 deposit to hold the date, offered in English or French; the studio also travels for off-site workshops.
After-school series of 8 to 10 weeks at $3,040–$3,800 per group and short programmes of 4 to 6 weeks at $1,520–$2,280, plus one-off workshops and field trips for ages 3 to 15; food-handler-certified instructors, nut-free protocols, and a no-cook table format for rooms without a kitchen.
The Kanata model offered to partners in other Canadian cities, with staff training, the tested curriculum, branding, marketing and ongoing operational support; the studio says no professional culinary background is required and gives figures by phone.
Cookiddoo's kitchen is at 301-150 Katimavik Rd in Kanata, the west end of Ottawa, inside the Resolute Center building that also houses Rideau Gymnastics. It draws families from Kanata and Ottawa West for master classes, camps and birthdays, and it travels: cooking programmes are delivered on-site at schools and daycares across Ottawa, and the studio takes off-site workshops and catering to events.
Carleton Place, where UAFest is held in Riverside Park on Sunday, 13 September 2026, sits west of the city along the same corridor — the festival puts it 45 minutes from Ottawa, and Kanata is the last part of the city you pass on the way out. Admission to the festival is free, from noon to 6 p.m.
First year listed as a vendor at UAFest.
October — Ottawa Kids features the Kanata studio, calling it Ottawa's first and only professional culinary studio made just for kids.
Second year at UAFest, in the festival's own record of vendors.
August — the studio publishes a reviews page quoting its Google rating of 4.7 stars from 28 reviews.
Ages 4 to 15. Classes are grouped by age, and the chefs adapt each recipe and technique so that younger and older children are both stretched and supported. School and daycare programmes start at age 3.
No — Cookiddoo is a drop-off studio. You leave your child in the supervised Kanata kitchen and have the two hours to yourself. Classes are capped at ten children so each one gets real attention from a chef.
The studio publishes its prices: master classes from $55 per child, week-long camps at $320, a full course at $389 and birthday parties at $385 with a $150 deposit. A master class includes a branded apron and hat to wear during the session and a personalised recipe to take home; premium themed classes are priced higher and each date on the schedule shows its own price.
The address is 301-150 Katimavik Rd, Kanata, Ottawa, ON K2L 2N2. The studio itself admits on its reviews page that first-time visitors struggle with the door, and passes on a parent's directions: navigate to Rideau Gymnastics at the Resolute Center, take the side door on the right of the gymnastics facility, then go up and keep left. If you are outside and cannot find it, call +1 613-710-0554 and someone comes down.
Yes. Groups can either visit the Kanata studio or the studio can bring the programme into your classroom. Cookiddoo supplies the ingredients, equipment, curriculum and food-handler-certified instructors; you supply kitchen access, or just tables — there is a no-cook format built around no-bake recipes, assembly, decoration and nutrition for rooms without a kitchen. Sessions are up to 10 children per instructor, with an assistant added from eleven children and a maximum of 30 per session, and allergies and dietary needs are handled in advance.
