Buitengewoon Kleinschalige Dagopvang

At Buitengewoon Kleinschalige Dagopvang on Weideweg 10 in Wijchen, everything revolves around your child’s wellbeing. We provide care for a maximum of six children in a small-scale, homely setting where your son or daughter feels as safe and secure as at home. Because we keep our group small, there is room for genuine attention: we know every child and every parent personally. Our pedagogical vision is simple: children develop best when they feel at ease. Therefore we work in a vertical group where children aged 0 to 4 play together and learn from one another. The youngest watch the older ones, the older ones practise caring and patience. This naturally creates a warm, familiar atmosphere in which everyone is seen and heard. Being outdoors is just as important as being inside. Our location offers plenty of outdoor space where children can run, explore and play freely. We let them experience the seasons, give them time to see how plants grow and bloom, and pay attention to the nature around us. Whenever possible we also involve small farm animals in our activities, so that children learn about animals and their care through play. Early childhood education (VVE) is naturally embedded in the daily routine. Language, numeracy and social skills are addressed through songs, stories, counting blocks or simply during role-play of everyday situations. We use the language the child already knows and gradually expand it, so that your child starts primary school with confidence. In short: at Buitengewoon Kleinschalige Dagopvang your child receives the calm, attention and space needed to grow. Parents describe us as ‘a second home’ – exactly how we intend it to be.
