About this care

AI
Welcome to IKC de Tamarisk, located at Canadalaan 2 in Groningen. We are an Integral Child Centre (IKC) offering after-school care (BSO) for children aged 4 to 12. Our centre is part of the VCOG foundation and provides a warm and safe environment where children can play, explore, and relax after school. Our after-school care is specifically designed to meet the needs of school-aged children. We accommodate up to 23 children per day, allowing us to maintain a small-scale and personal approach. We are registered in the National Childcare Register under number 193555499 since December 19, 2023. As an IKC, we work closely with the primary school located on the same premises. This ensures a smooth transition between school and after-school care, in a familiar environment for the children. Our qualified pedagogical staff are ready to guide children in activities, support with homework, and engage in play together. We warmly invite you to come and meet us. A tour and introductory conversation are always possible via our website or by emailing tamarisk@vcog.nl.
