About this care
Hero BSO Van Oosten de Bruijnstraat is located at the same premises as our daycare center at Van Oosten de Bruynstraat 62A in Haarlem-South/West. The location accommodates up to 60 children aged 4 to 12 years. We have been active as an after-school care facility since January 1, 2010, and are part of Stichting Hero kindercentra.
Our BSO features a large outdoor play area and a dedicated atelier. Children can play, engage in sports, and explore to their heart's content outdoors. We offer various activities such as arts and crafts in the atelier and sports games in the garden. For children aged 7 and older, there is a Children's Council where they can contribute ideas for program activities.
The location is situated in a quiet residential area with ample parking. We work with a consistent team of pedagogical staff who ensure a familiar and safe environment every day. Our staff pick up children from various primary schools in the area and bring them to the BSO where an afternoon full of play and relaxation awaits.
We believe it's important for children to feel at home with us. Therefore, we provide a homely atmosphere with fixed rituals and plenty of room for personal initiative. Whether a child wants to build, craft, play outside, or simply relax, everything is possible with us.Read more
