De Hof

Welcome to De Hof, our small-scale daycare center in the heart of Waalre. Located at Den Hof 154, our warm and welcoming location provides care for up to 24 children aged 0 to 4 years. In our beautifully renovated and bright building, we create a safe environment together with our pedagogical professionals where your child can develop optimally. At De Hof, we work with horizontal groups, where babies and toddlers have separate spaces perfectly tailored to their developmental stage. Our baby group offers peace and security, while our toddler group is full of challenges. We believe it's important that children can be themselves and discover at their own pace. Therefore, we offer various activities that match each child's interests and needs. Our spacious, bright group areas invite play and discovery. Children can build, craft, read and of course enjoy good food here. We work with a fixed daily routine that provides structure and regularity, but allows room for spontaneous activities. The garden is a true discovery garden where children can experience nature. Chalking on the sidewalk, jumping or making an obstacle course - outdoor play is high on our priority list. We believe that being outside is essential for children's development. For our youngest ones, we provide bottle feeding according to the schedule from home. We have separate bedrooms where babies can sleep peacefully in their own bed. For the toddlers, there is a shared sleeping area where they can rest after an active morning. We work with an organic warm meal that is freshly prepared daily, supplemented with healthy snacks. Our toddler mornings are specially developed as ideal preparation for primary school. During these mornings, we work on different developmental areas such as language, motor skills and social skills. We use our own method that connects with the world of experience of young children. During holidays, we also organize special programs with extra fun activities such as a visit to the puppet theater. We keep parents informed through our own app. Here you will find daily photos and messages about your child's development. This way, you won't miss any milestone and can enjoy all the beautiful moments. We value parent involvement and regularly organize parent evenings and participation mornings. At De Hof, the development of each child is central. Our pedagogical professionals are specialized in guiding young children and regularly follow training to keep their knowledge up-to-date. We work with small groups, allowing us to give lots of individual attention to each child. Together with parents, we ensure that children start their school career with a strong foundation.
