About this care
At after-school care De Kosmos, the fun reaches for the stars. We are located inside primary school De Kosmos, which makes it wonderfully cosy here. Lots of children, so lots of friends. A great place to spend your after-school hours!
In our homely classroom – which we share with toddler care SamSam – everything is well arranged. Day-care SamSam and playgroup SamSam are also under the same roof, making it extra cosy! Nothing is compulsory and almost everything is allowed. That makes children happy. They know exactly what they want, and that works out well because there is plenty to choose from at our after-school care: drawing and crafting, board games or computer games, singing and dancing… We have the space, so we just do it!
Whenever possible, the children prefer to be outside. We totally understand, because we have a large playground where we play the best games together. There is even a water-play area. And for the football lovers: we have a real football cage on the grass field! Want even more adventure? On Wednesdays and Fridays we go together to Adventure after-school care De Maten.
That’s how we enjoy the best activities together. And what we do is decided by the children themselves. In their own time they are free to do their own thing – that is the motto at after-school care De Kosmos.Read more
GGD Inspection

Inspection date: September 1, 2025

- All staff meet training and Certificate of Conduct (VOG) requirements
- Sufficient guidance from pedagogical coach in place

Summary
Doomijn BSO De Kosmos at Voldersdreef 301 in Apeldoorn provides after-school care (BSO) for up to 22 children aged 4-12 on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. The Municipal Health Service (GGD) inspected the location on 1 September 2025. The pedagogical climate, staff and information provision to parents more than meet requirements: children feel safe, are given room for their own choices and are stimulated through play. All pedagogical staff are qualified, hold a Certificate of Conduct (VOG) and coaching hours are secured. However, the location still does not have a parent committee; the provider has been trying to recruit parents but has received insufficient responses. There is a minor violation of the Childcare Act. The GGD advises the municipality to proceed with enforcement, taking into account the ongoing recruitment efforts.
