About this care
Welcome to BLOS daycare Overtoom 373F, located in vibrant Amsterdam-West yet surrounded by the tranquility of Vondelpark. We are housed in a standalone building with a fantastic outdoor space of no less than 300 m² that borders directly on the park. This unique location allows us to bring children into contact with nature on a daily basis, while still being cared for in the heart of the city.
Our daycare center is specially designed for children aged 0 to 4 years. We provide a safe and stimulating environment where every child can develop at their own pace. The group spaces are bright and spacious, using natural materials and colors that radiate calmness. The direct connection to our large garden means that outdoor play is an integral part of our daily routine.
We work with a team of certified childcare professionals who are ready every day with passion and dedication for your child. Our approach is based on the vision of BLOS childcare, where we give children the space to discover, play and grow in a familiar environment. We believe in the power of small groups and personal attention, so that every child feels seen and valued.
Our location is open Monday through Friday from 7:30 AM to 6:30 PM. We are closed on weekends. You are always welcome to come and take a look at our location. You can easily request a tour through our website or contact our Parent Support department for more information about availability and registration.Read more
