About this care
Welcome to BSO De Salamander, located at Pieter Cheeuwenlaan 12 in the Broekpolder district of Beverwijk. We are part of Stichting Welschap Kinderopvang and provide after-school care for up to 110 children each day from the primary schools De Panta Rhei and De Zeester, which are housed in the same building. We also offer before-school care.
Our large and diverse team of pedagogical staff lovingly use their varied talents to create a wide range of activities. Together with the children we cook, do arts and crafts, play sports and work in our own vegetable garden. Although the location is spacious, we place great value on a homely atmosphere where every child feels safe and seen.
The care is organised into two groups: Salamander Laag (0251 731 055) and Salamander Hoog (0251 233 993). Opening hours are Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday from 13:45 to 18:30 and Wednesday from 12:15 to 18:30. For questions or a tour, please contact our assistant manager Rianne Jonker or our manager Paula Floris at salamander@welschapkinderopvang.nl.
We look forward to welcoming your child to our warm, challenging and safe after-school environment!Read more
