About this care
Welcome to Hero Daycare Van Noordestraat, located in the heart of Haarlem-Oost in the Slachthuisbuurt district. As part of Stichting Hero kindercentra, we provide care for up to 46 children aged 0 to 4 years at this location. We are a daycare center where every child is central and given the space to grow and develop at their own pace.
Our dedicated pedagogical staff create a safe and stimulating environment where children can discover who they are. We believe that every child is unique with their own character and needs. Through play and exploration, we help children discover their unique potential.
As a social childcare organization without profit motive, we contribute to a sustainable green world in which children can grow up healthy. We believe it is important that children learn through play how to take good care of themselves and the world around them.
Our location on C. van Noordestraat is easily accessible for families from Haarlem-Oost and the surrounding area. We warmly invite you to come and meet our location and experience how we work towards a promising future for your child.Read more

Summary
The Municipal Health Service (GGD) Kennemerland conducted an unannounced annual inspection on 20 March 2026 at Hero Kinderdagverblijf Van Noordestraat in Haarlem, a daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) for 46 children aged 0 to 4 years. The location meets all assessed quality requirements regarding pedagogical climate, staff, safety and health, and accommodation. Previous violations from October 2025 concerned the pedagogical climate, the 'Safe sleeping' protocol, and the layout of group rooms. These have been resolved via a recovery offer. The parent committee is satisfied with their participatory rights but would like to see more visible activity offerings. An attention point concerns hygiene with shared beds: double-made mattresses shed flakes when turned over. The operator will address this in the work plan.
