About this care
De Kinderruimte B.V. is a small-scale daycare centre located at Molenstraat 157 in the nature-rich area of Soest. We provide care for up to 29 children aged 8 weeks to 4 years. Our location has been officially registered in the National Childcare Register since 7 December 2017 under number 164054078, which means parents are eligible for childcare allowance.
At De Kinderruimte we work with separate groups of maximum 16 children. Young children from 8 weeks and older children up to four years do not play together. This creates peace, overview and sufficient personal attention for each child. Our permanent team of dedicated childcare professionals is ready to provide your child with a safe and stimulating environment.
Our vision is based on four pillars: Space, Respect, Peace and Regularity. These values are reflected in our daily approach, the layout of our group rooms and in the natural environment of the Engh that surrounds our daycare centre. We believe that children can develop optimally, feel safe and enjoy discovering the world around them.
As an independent organisation without parent or subsidiary companies, we can respond quickly and offer personal attention to every family. Would you like to know more or take a tour? Please feel free to contact us at info@dekinderruimte.nl or call 06-20156999.Read more

Summary
Daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) De Kinderruim in Soest was subject to an unannounced annual inspection by the Municipal Health Service (GGD) Utrecht region on 9 June 2026. The location, with 32 childcare places and 2 groups for children aged 0 to 4 years, meets requirements in all three assessed domains: pedagogical climate, staff and groups, and safety and health. The pedagogical practice shows strong points: staff provide emotional security, encourage self-reliance and autonomy, and actively promote language and cognitive development. Mentorship and settling into a new group are well organized. There is one area for attention: not all staff members have sufficient knowledge of mandatory reporting, consultation, and notification obligations. The holder has taken measures, including planned training before the end of the year. No violations were identified in this inspection. The GGD advises no enforcement action.
