A homely atmosphere in Kralingen-Oost
Homely is the word. This is due to our bright, spacious building – even on a cloudy day it is light – and our wonderful, dedicated team. Everyone knows and helps each other. Our baby island with all the baby groups together is an oasis of calm with individual attention for your child. The bottle moment also means cuddling and investing in feeling safe. We have acclimatization days to make it easier and always keep close contact with you as a parent.
Active toddler groups
Our toddler groups are also together. The children go outside as much as possible. At this age, they need healthy activity and love to move. If the spaces in our after-school care are available, we also take the toddlers there. We often split the toddlers into smaller groups so that we can do an activity with more focused attention. With the older toddlers, we do preschool activities such as circle time. A great preparation for elementary school.
Shady garden
In our shady garden, there is something for every child. Hiding in the bamboo grove, go-karting and cycling, or playing in the sandbox. There is a special area for the little ones. The babies can quietly and safely enjoy the fresh air.
Easily accessible
Our location in Kralingen-Oost is close to the city center and the A16. Easily accessible and with good parking facilities.

Playing in the baby gardenIn our baby garden, babies safely enjoy the fresh air in their own enclosed garden. Meanwhile, the older children can also have fun playing in the sandbox or racing on the small bikes or go-karts.
-
Special toddler activitiesWith the toddlers, we often deliberately split the group. This way, we can cater to the different developmental stages of the children. We do this with the oldest toddlers (3+) in preparation for primary school.
-
Quiet play areasOur baby group(s) are set up so that every child aged 0 to 2 years can play and relax in peace. There is a choice of our black and white corner, reading corner, kitchen unit, large play mat, or our mirror with sensory tiles.
On our childcare center, we have horizontal groups
Every child lives in a world where everything impresses – and everything has an impact. That is why we work with horizontal groups at our childcare locations.

Looking through the child’s eyes is my passion! In addition to working with the children, I support the team by coaching directly on the group. By empowering both children and Pedagogical Professionals, we strengthen our pedagogical quality and truly make a difference for every child.
Creating a sense of connection within the group and the team is my favourite part of the job. The combination of my responsibilities allows me to collaborate closely with the team, ensuring that we provide a safe and familiar environment to work and play in every single day.
Frequently asked questions about our childcare
To increase the chances of securing a spot, we recommend enrolling your child as soon as possible at our childcare. We take your preferences into account during our planning and strive to fulfill your wishes to the best of our ability.
That depends on various factors including preferred days, how many days you need, and how flexible you are. For example, the likelihood of a placement becoming available for one day is greater than three or four days becoming available in one go. The more flexible you are as a parent, the greater the likelihood that we will be able to offer you a place.
If you’re seeking a place quickly, we’d be happy to look at the options available in our schedule. At the busier locations, we often work approximately four months ahead, so it can take some time before you hear from us. If there’s a waiting list, we rely on cancellations/schedule changes for new places to become available.
Are you pregnant and looking for a place in the longer term? We have horizontal groups at Kindergarden and this affects how far ahead we can plan. Horizontal means that children move on to the next group at a certain time. As we take a child’s development and age and the days that a child spends at the daycare center into account, we plan four to six months ahead, depending on how busy the center is. A schedule can also change a lot. Factors that influence this include registration of siblings (they are given priority), schedule changes for children who already have a placement (switching days or increasing the number of days), and cancellations.
