About this care
Welcome to BSO De Ballebende in Rossum! Our location at Hogeweg 39b provides small-scale after-school care for children aged 4 to 13. Located just a stone's throw from the daycare center, the transition remains familiar for children.
Being outdoors is central to our approach. "There's no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothing" is our motto. That's why every child has a bag with outdoor clothing and boots ready at the coat rack. We offer daily adventurous activities focused on nature and sports, including mud week, play and movement, and discovering seasons and celebrations. We draw inspiration from nature, music, and creative themes where children explore different developmental areas.
Our pedagogical staff create a safe foundation where children can be themselves. We work with consistent faces in each group, ensuring every child receives personal attention. During pick-up, there's always time for a handover conversation. Should you as a parent need more time, we're happy to schedule a 10-minute discussion.
We highly value good contact with parents. Our horizontal groups provide peace and structure, accommodating a maximum of 30 children. Together we ensure your child feels at home at BSO De Ballebende.Read more
