About this care
'Bij Boer Dolf' is a small-scale daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) in the beautiful and unique rural area of Nijkerk. We have two vertical groups where children from 0 to 4 years play and develop together. We offer high-quality childcare, with the natural and rural environment at its heart. Children are given literal and figurative space to develop, learn and grow at their own pace. We spend lots of time outdoors in a spacious, enclosed play meadow with natural materials, and regularly visit the farm. We also have a vegetable garden where we tend to, harvest and taste vegetables, strawberries or apples together with the children.Read more
