About this care

AI
Welcome to Second Home Childcare De Watervilla, our after-school care location at Curaçaostraat 4 in Almere. De Watervilla is beautifully situated by the water and uniquely designed as a moored tugboat – a true home port for children aged 4 to 13. At De Watervilla, we work with two clear horizontal age groups. The Parelvissengroep provides care for children aged 4 to 7, while the Orkagroep focuses on children aged 8 to 13. This structure ensures that activities and guidance perfectly match your child's developmental stage. Our location features a spacious outdoor area where children can run, climb, and cycle freely. The outdoor space is safely enclosed and offers plenty of opportunities for natural explorations and sports activities. We believe it's important that children can move and relax in the fresh air after an intensive school day. As a service for busy parents, we offer a convenient pick-up and drop-off service. We collect children from various primary schools in the area and safely bring them to De Watervilla. Every day, a fresh warm meal is served, ensuring your child can enjoy healthy food after school. Our pedagogical staff provide personal attention and guidance every day. We work according to our comprehensive pedagogical policy plan, which is transparently available to parents through the parent portal. Through our app, you as a parent stay informed about all activities and developments of your child. At Second Home Childcare De Watervilla, we create a safe, familiar environment where children can be themselves and have fun after school. We warmly invite you to come take a look and get acquainted with our location and approach.
