About this care
Buitenschoolse Opvang Het Kinderatelier is located at Hedemanplein in the Sluitersveld district. We are part of Humankind and provide after-school care for children aged 4 to 12 in a homely environment where they feel at ease.
We support children in their development into balanced individuals with a positive self-image. Self-reliance, social skills and confidence in their own abilities are important to us. At our BSO, the child is central and children are actively involved in planning activities.
Our space is attractively furnished with plenty of challenging play materials. We believe it's important for children to play outside as much as possible. They use our own outdoor space and facilities in the neighborhood. This way, we naturally combine indoor and outdoor play.
At Het Kinderatelier, we work from a familiar, warm atmosphere. We offer children a place where they can relax after a school day, where they can play, discover and learn new things. Together with the children, we create a place where everyone feels welcome.Read more
