About this care
Welcome to daycare Eigen Wijs, located in a beautiful building at Lage Weide 1b in Limmen. We provide daycare for children aged 0 to 4 years in a homely atmosphere where child-centered and safe developmental environments are central. With us, we dream of finding the sparkle in every child's eyes!
Our location features an adventurous garden that invites exploration and play. The location of our cozy facility is ideal for outings in the area, as well as for regular visits to the elderly in Limmen. This connection with the neighborhood and nature is part of our educational vision.
Within Eigen Wijs we work with two groups: the toddler group "De Zebra" for children aged 2-4 years and the vertical group "De Giraffe" for children aged 0-4 years. Both groups accommodate up to 15 children and are open 52 weeks a year from Monday to Friday from 7:30 AM to 6:30 PM. Care from 7:00 AM is also possible. Children have their own core group where they see the same children and pedagogical staff as much as possible, providing emotional security.
Our pedagogical staff are professionally trained and work according to a clear pedagogical work plan. During the introductory meeting, parents meet the regular pedagogical staff who belong to their child. We believe personal attention and a familiar environment are essential for the development of young children.Read more
