About this care
Welcome to En nu jij, a warm and inspiring daycare centre located at Kasteel Noordeinde 22 in the heart of Meppel. Since 1 January 2020, we have been opening our doors every day with joy for children aged 0 to 4. At our centre, everything revolves around talent development and discovering the unique potential of each child. Our motto is clear: “I can show you how, I stand beside you, and then YOU! I’m here for you!”
We provide care in horizontal age groups, where children play and learn with peers of the same age. Our baby group – where Karla has been the familiar face for years – offers a calm, safe environment for the very youngest. The toddler group, led by staff including Mariska – who has completed the Expert Developmental Advancement training – encourages curiosity and independence. We work with dedicated childcare professionals who truly see each child and give them the space to be themselves.
Our location is housed in a characteristic building: a former castle that we have lovingly transformed into a wonderful place for children. We have deliberately chosen a homely atmosphere, where children feel at home and are free to explore. We believe that children learn most from and with each other, in an environment that invites play, discovery and growth.
At En nu jij, we find it important that both parents and children feel welcome. We are happy to take time for a personal introduction and a tour. Together we look at how we can best meet the needs of your child and your family. We are proud that we now have a team of 36 dedicated staff members who work every day with passion and commitment to support your child’s development.Read more
