About this care
Welcome to BSO Vaals, part of Humankind and located at St Jozefplein 53 in the heart of Vaals. We provide after-school care for children aged 4 to 12 who already attend primary school. Our location is centrally situated, surrounded by nature, and features a large garden where children can enjoy outdoor play every day. The space invites exploration, movement, and togetherness.
We work closely with the Brede School Vaals, ensuring a smooth transition from school to after-school care. Our pedagogical staff are ready to offer children a familiar and safe place after school. We provide rest when needed and stimulation where possible. Through play, children continue to develop, make new friends, and discover their talents.
Our activities align with the world of the child. We use the natural environment for outdoor activities and encourage physical challenges. There is also room for creative expression, such as crafting and building. We believe it is important that children can choose what they want to do, so they feel ownership of their free time.
Our opening hours are flexible: Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday from 2:30 PM to 6:30 PM, Wednesday from 12:30 PM to 6:30 PM, and Friday from 7:30 AM to 6:30 PM. This allows parents to work or study with peace of mind, knowing their child is in good hands.Read more
