About this care
De Zeester is a daycare centre located in the heart of Rotterdam, just a short walk from Eendrachtsplein metro station. We provide daily care for children aged 0 to 4 years in a homely and safe environment. Our centre is open every weekday from 7:00 AM to 6:30 PM, including during school holidays. We are closed on official public holidays; on 5, 24 and 31 December we close at 5:00 PM.
At De Zeester we work with three horizontal age groups: the Pareltjes (babies), the Zeepaardjes (toddlers) and Nemo (preschoolers). This allows every child to play and develop in an environment that perfectly matches his or her developmental stage. Our pedagogical staff are ready every day to give your child the personal attention and care he or she deserves.
We believe good communication with parents is very important. That is why we use the parent app Parro to keep you informed weekly about general matters and to update you on your child’s development. For direct contact, you can be connected to the groups by phone during opening hours.
Our location at Eendrachtsplein 14 offers 41 childcare places and is fully registered in the National Register under number 167111632. You are most welcome for a tour and to meet our team.Read more
