About this care
Welcome to BSO Bonte Koe, part of IKC Socrates located at Lage Hoek 71 in Zwaag. We provide after-school care for children aged 4 to 13 years in a homely and safe environment. Our location is housed in the same building as primary school Socrates, allowing children to easily transition from school to after-school care.
BSO Bonte Koe has a large capacity of up to 88 children and has been registered in the National Childcare Register since August 29, 2022, under number 399321044. We work closely with the school to ensure a smooth transition from school to after-school care. Our qualified childcare professionals are ready to give children a pleasant afternoon with activities that match their interests and developmental level.
Our location is situated in the Bangert-Oosterpolder district, near the shopping center and next to the multi-functional facility De Kreek. This provides excellent opportunities for outings and activities in the neighborhood. We believe it's important that children feel at home with us and can relax after a school day, while still being challenged to discover and learn new things.
