About this care
BSO BenBelle Vathorst is located at Mont Blanc 2 in the Vathorst district of Amersfoort. We are an after-school care facility where children aged 4 to 12 can come after school for rest, play and challenge. Our team of qualified pedagogical staff welcomes up to 56 children per day in a homely and safe environment.
Our spacious group areas are divided into different play corners, a creative studio and a reading/chill room where children can choose what they want to do. In addition, we have a large garden with a natural look where children can romp, explore and play outside. For the movement enthusiasts, we have a large play basement where we regularly organize sports and movement activities.
We pick up children from the primary schools in the immediate vicinity of Vathorst, so that parents can work without worry and children are in familiar hands immediately after school. Our core values are attention, acceptance, trust and connection. We believe that every child can develop at their own pace and in their own way from a safe and secure base. Through genuine interest and involvement, we create space for growth, development and quality.
At BenBelle, we find it important that children can be themselves. We offer a challenging and stimulating environment that invites children to discover the world around them with pleasure, together with others. There is plenty of room to experiment and grow. We find differences in pace and development natural: everyone is allowed to be there and matters, in their own way.Read more
