Hi, I'm Nathalie van Raaij, location manager of Kindergarden Postweg Nijmegen.

The Geldersch hof building houses both our daycare center and our after-school care. Our children love spending time both indoors and outdoors. Our bright and spacious rooms are designed to encourage children to play games, and those who need a short break from the world can escape to the library, where there are plenty of places to chill out and unwind. Once they’ve regained their energy, they let their imaginations run wild in the creative studio or the theater.

We always encourage the children to take advantage of our large yard and enjoy the fresh air, so we spend a lot of time outdoors. Children can play to their heart’s content in the small wooded area and start their own outdoor adventure with bootcamp-like equipment, monkey bars, a sandbox, trampoline, and an aquatic circuit.

We offer different activities every month based on the themes Sports and Games, Creative, Cooking, and Technology. Children get to enjoy a special program during school vacations. We also offer workshops, including a very popular one taught by a magician. And then, of course, there are numerous daytrips and field trips, including scavenger hunts in a local forest.

Our after-school care (located in the Kwakkenberg residential neighborhood) is easily accessible, with the main roads N325, N326, and A73 all to be found nearby.

We pick up at the following schools:

Klein Heijendaal
De Sterrendans
Montessorischool
De Muze
De Klokkenberg

The schools where we collect can change. Collection days and times may vary depending on the school.

Studio

The children can really give a free rein to their fantasy and creativity here. We challenge them by offering many different types of materials (wood, bricks, clay, paint, and such things as Ecoline). So they’re not only doing crafts and drawing but also designing, building, and handcrafts.
How? Like this! Lab

Investigating, experimenting, and discovering; it’s all possible in our laboratory! Children can immerse themselves in biology, physics, chemistry, and technology by doing experiments.
Theater

A fantastic space where each child can completely live out his or her fantasy. Face-painting and singing are among the options and with all the stage props and costumes, the kids put on some fantastic performances.
Unique daily activities

Children at our after-school club manage their own spare time. They can take part in three alternating activities every day. Themes include sport and play, building, crafts, games, and cooking.

Do after-school care contracts include full day care during study days and/or school vacation periods?

An after-school care contract relates to care after school hours. Children are collected from the school by a member of our childcare staff when the school finishes. During school vacation periods and/or study days, children are welcome at the after-school care the whole day. The same times apply here as for the daycare center: 7.30 am - 6.30 pm. This only applies to your contracted days. Should a study day fall outside your contracted days, you can consult the location manager to see whether you can request this extra day.

What meals are available at the BSO?

At Kindergarden we give your child healthy and varied food, at various times of the day.

Healthy buffet
The healthy buffet comprises raw vegetables and fruit, yoghurt with muesli, nuts and one sandwich or two crackers with a healthy topping. We always first encourage the children to eat some raw vegetables before choosing anything else. And of course, they also get something to drink, a choice of water or warm (not hot) tea.

Lunch
Has your child’s school finished early? Of course, we’ll offer them a healthy lunch, including wholemeal bread with various, healthy toppings. Yoghurt is also an option. We also offer something to drink; a choice of water or warm (not hot) tea.

Snacks
At the end of the day we always offer a snack, which can comprise fruit or dried fruit, or raw vegetables and something to drink.

Hot evening meal
There are also several Kindergarden after-school care locations where the children are given a hot meal at the end of the day. That’s convenient as they’ll already have eaten when you collect them. Of course, we serve healthy meals that cover all the basic food groups. We always prepare these fresh meals ourselves. If we offer this service at an after-school care location it will be mentioned on the location page.

What happens with the after-school care during vacation periods?

During vacation periods, your child is welcome the whole day on your contracted days. The opening hours are then the same as the opening hours of our daycare centers: from 7.30 am to 6.30 pm. If you need extra time outside those hours you can pay for additional fifteen minute-periods at the location from 7.00 am - 7.30 am and from 6.30 pm to 7.00 pm.

Children from four to twelve develop rapidly and each child develops in their own unique way. That’s why all our after-school care locations place a high priority on personal development. We have documented how we do this in our childcare program, ‘Wereldwijs’. This explains how we shape that focus and guidance and why we work like this. So that we can also offer your child the attention and development he or she needs.

Well-trained, enthusiastic creatives… Our after-school care staff is unique because they all bring their own passions and talents and use these to challenge your child to take part in simply amazing activities. They enjoy sharing their expertise and they keep developing their childcare knowledge via our Kindergarden Academy.

Having fun! It’s great to have the confidence to make your own choices so you can discover your talents. Where better for children to do that than an inspiring and challenging environment? We create that environment with the group size and the different corners and spaces each with its specific function. Because everything at our after-school care stimulates a child’s natural creativity.
