About this care
At Kinderopvang SKR in Ridderkerk, we offer a warm and safe environment where children from 0 to 13 years can develop optimally. Our daycare centers (kinderdagverblijven/KDV), toddler groups (peuterspeelgroepen), and after-school care (BSO) are small-scale and located at various sites in Ridderkerk, often near primary schools. We work with permanent, qualified childcare staff who give each child the attention they need.
We stimulate each child's development through an early and preschool education programme (VVE). This programme focuses on language, social-emotional, cognitive and motor development. In addition, we offer activities such as arts and crafts, music and movement, and ensure plenty of outdoor play opportunities. Healthy nutrition and an appropriate rhythm are important to us, which is why we provide healthy snacks and ensure moments of rest.
Parents can choose from full-day care, extended care or 40-week care. We work closely with parents to provide loving upbringing, so that every child can flourish. Feel free to come by and visit our locations to experience the atmosphere for yourself!Read more
