About this care
Welcome to Thuishuis NiniMini, located at Kapelweg 13 in the centre of Ter Apel. We are a small-scale after-school care (BSO) facility with room for 16 primary-school children aged 4 to 12. Our home is set in the historic Sint Lucia building, within walking distance of local schools. A fixed team of four pedagogical staff members – Nienke, Charlene, Harma and Kimberly – work on set days so that children always see a familiar face.
Inside, the space is warm and cosy, divided into clearly defined corners: a construction zone with challenging materials, a creative table for crafts and drawing, a role-play area and a quiet reading corner with cushions and books. Outside, children enjoy a large green playground where they can run, climb and invent their own games.
We value small-scale care and personal contact. Parents arrange everything directly with us and are welcome to drop in at any time. We provide care Monday to Friday from 6.30 a.m. to 6.30 p.m.; other hours can be arranged. Every Tuesday we serve a hot meal; on other days children bring their own lunch. We regularly go on outings – to the woods, the playground or a museum – always in small groups and with clear agreements.
Fees are charged by the hour, with no fixed half-day blocks. You do not pay for weeks when we are closed (public holidays and holidays). Child-care allowance is available, keeping net costs low. There is currently no waiting list; feel free to visit and meet us without obligation.Read more

Summary
Thuishuis Ninim ini (BSO) in Ter Apel provides care for children aged 0-13 in temporary accommodation. The inspection of 15 January 2025 concludes that the location meets the requirements for safety, health, and parental rights. The pedagogical climate is good: the team works according to the policy plan, offers calm and structure, and uses themes such as 'Knights and Princesses'. All staff members are qualified, ratios are in order, and there is always someone with first aid certification. Points for improvement were the unclear group composition and the absence of a linked Certificate of Good Conduct (VOG) for two new employees. The group composition has since been adjusted in writing and approved; the VOG issue has not been resolved as no recovery offer was made. The municipal executive (college van B&W) is advised to take enforcement action.
