Although the old marble entrance is still intact – along with all the other classic features of the building – Villa Geldersch Hof has “Kindergarden” written all over it! And as you know, at Kindergarden we are committed to giving equal attention to all our children and finding the right balance of activities. We use hanging cribs in the infant sections, so that the youngest babies can get used to the sounds and smells in the group. A safe space in the group to relax for a while, and that's also how we get to know your child too! Did you know that we offer pregnancy exercise classes right at our location? We’d love to see you there someday soon!
We tend to promote self-reliance and independence among our younger and older toddlers. For example, the toddlers who still take naps nap in our “sleep studio,” where they each have their own dedicated place on their own mattress. Our children have learned to make their own way back to the group as soon as they wake up, where they can dress themselves. Toddlers who want to retreat and take a breather also like to use this space.
We’re very grateful to have a forest so nearby, as well as being very happy with our green location and fabulous front yard and backyard. Both infant groups have their own separate, adjacent garden, where our babies can safely enjoy the fresh air. Older children can hide in the bamboo patches or ride their bikes across the bike track. You’ll find little nooks and crannies all over the place that are challenging and relaxing for children in equal measure. After all, kids can’t keep running around all day, can they?
A bonus is that our location (in the Kwakkenberg residential neighborhood) is quickly and easily accessible.
