About this care
Welcome to VeenKids Kinderopvang De Vos, our welcoming after-school care centre in the west of Veenendaal. Managed by coordinators Rosemarie and Sonja, we offer a safe place for up to 43 primary-school children (ages 4–13) to play, explore and grow after the school day ends.
Located at Oudeveen 230, our building is designed around a woodland theme: the attic has been transformed into an adventurous tree-house and the outdoor play structure echoes the same style. Together with our playful mascot Vygo Vos, the children set off on discovery trips in nature and enjoy our spacious green garden.
We provide reliable pick-up and drop-off services. Children are transported in sustainable, safe ways such as the electric GoCab bike-taxi. We work with several primary schools in the area; the exact schools are agreed individually with parents.
Our activity programme is wide-ranging and tailored to the world of school-aged children. We craft with natural materials, spend lots of time on outdoor sports and movement, and—since 1 May—we have our own vegetable garden where children learn to sow, tend and harvest. In partnership with Veenendaal Public Library, the Boekstart programme brings regular story-tellers to the centre and children can borrow books from our KidsBieb.
Healthy food and exercise are central to our approach. We serve seasonal, nutritious snacks and encourage active participation in sports and games. Through child-friendly signing we support language development and foster a positive, inclusive group atmosphere.
Our qualified pedagogical staff (MBO/HBO level) work in small, manageable groups so every child receives the personal attention they deserve. We believe that when children feel seen and heard they can explore the world around them with joy and confidence.

Summary
VeenKids Kinderopvang De Vos in Veenendaal, an after-school care (BSO) for 43 children aged 4 to 13, was inspected on 6 August 2026 by the Municipal Health Service (GGD) Utrecht region. The location meets requirements in four of the five inspected domains: pedagogical climate, staff and groups, safety and health, and accommodation. The safety and health policy is well in order, including an anti-bullying protocol and domestic violence reporting code. The premises are safe, despite observations about weeds and a withered beech hedge in the outdoor area. The only shortcoming concerns parental rights: no parent committee has been established, while more than 50 children are placed at the location. The provider does make considerable efforts to involve parents through digital communication. No violations were identified in this inspection. The GGD advises the municipality not to take enforcement measures.
