About this care
BSO De Kinderkade is a warm and secure after-school care facility for children aged 4 to 12, located at Noorderhavenkade 10 in Rotterdam-Blijdorp. We are part of KindeRdam Kinderopvang B.V., a trusted childcare provider in the region for over ten years. Our location is situated between Daltonschool de Margriet and Jenaplanschool De Blijberg, allowing our staff to walk children safely from school.
Our programme focuses on fun, relaxation and development after the school day. We offer a varied range of activities with an emphasis on movement, creativity and nature. In our large, sunny garden children can play, ride scooters and bikes in a safe environment. During school holidays we run BSO Vakantieland, a six-week themed activity programme packed with exciting and challenging experiences.
Our qualified pedagogical staff support children with homework, social skill development and discovering their talents. We work in small, mixed-age groups, ensuring personal attention for every child. Parental involvement is important to us: we have an active parents’ committee and welcome ideas and feedback.
BSO De Kinderkade is open Monday to Friday from school dismissal until 18:30. During school holidays we are open from 07:00 to 18:00. We collect children from De Blijbergschool and make sure they have a great time filled with play, relaxation and new experiences.Read more

Summary
De Kinderkade is an after-school care (BSO) location in Rotterdam with 40 places for children aged 4-8. During the annual inspection on 4 November 2025, it was found that the pedagogical policy was insufficiently specific about the working method, size and age composition of the base groups, and staff deployment. The Municipal Health Service (GGD) issued a recovery offer, after which the location revised its policy plan and subsequently met the requirement. All other assessed quality requirements, including pedagogical practice, staff deployment, safety and health, were in order immediately. The pedagogical practice appeared relaxed and professional, with sufficient guidance and structure for the children. The municipality is advised not to enforce, as the violation has been remedied following the recovery offer.
Reviews
Betrokken medewerkers en een leuke speelse leeromgeving voor je baby.
Leuke, gezellige locatie
Facilities are good but the staff (that cared for my child) were rude and one in particular was confrontational. If your baby doesn’t fit the standard...
