About this care
Welcome to De Blokkentoren Haren, a public preschool/toddler care (peuterspeelzaal) where we have been providing responsible childcare for more than 28 years. Located in the annex of primary school CBS de Borg, we create a safe and trusted environment for toddlers aged 2 to 4. Our enthusiastic teachers ensure that every child feels at ease and can develop socially, emotionally and physically.
Our opening hours are Monday to Friday from 08:30 to 12:00. During this time, we offer a varied programme, including free play, structured activities, music and arts & crafts. We encourage outdoor play, especially when the weather permits, and provide healthy meals during care. We have a vertical group structure, which means children of different ages play together, promoting the development of social skills.
At De Blokkentoren, we highly value parental involvement. We offer the option of non-binding registration via our website. For more information or questions, you can reach us by phone or email. We look forward to welcoming your toddler to our playgroup!Read more
