About this care
Welcome to Hero Peuteropvang Generaal Spoorlaan, located in a charming former school building in Haarlem-Noord. We provide morning care for up to 16 toddlers aged 2 to 4, every weekday from 8:15 AM to 12:15 PM. Our bright, spacious classroom invites children to explore, play and grow. Mornings usually begin with free play, followed by shared fruit and story time. The large outdoor playground is a favourite spot for climbing, running and discovery. On rainy days we simply move the adventure indoors: soft blocks appear for climbing and sliding, we practise somersaults on the mat or dance to music. The parachute game—everyone holding the handles and tossing a ball through the centre—never fails to delight.
Many families in the neighbourhood have diverse backgrounds, so we place special emphasis on language development. We repeat words during crafts, puzzles and colouring activities, and use the booklet ‘Peuterpraatjes’, which children take home to practise with their parents. In this playful way toddlers quickly expand their vocabulary and make a confident start toward primary school.
Our site has been officially registered since 3 September 2012 under LRK number 469048840. We are part of Stichting Hero kindercentra, a non-profit organisation that reinvests all earnings into quality and innovation. The same building also houses our after-school care, so children who continue on already know the staff and surroundings. This creates a warm, close-knit community where parents recognise one another and children feel safe and at home.Read more
GGD Inspection
Improvements needed
Inspection date: November 13, 2025
Strengths
- Sufficient qualified staff deployed according to the required ratio
- All staff members hold a Certificate of Conduct (Verklaring Omtrent het Gedrag/VOG) and are registered in the persons register
- Pedagogical practice provides sufficient emotional safety and developmental stimulation
- Early childhood education is offered in accordance with legal requirements using the Uk & Puk programme
- Stable care arrangement with two permanent staff members per child
- Parents are well informed and involved in their child's development
Shortcomings
- The organisation of activities where children may leave their core group or core group room is insufficiently described in concrete terms in the pedagogical policy
- The manner in which the substantive connection between early and pre-primary education is shaped, and the careful transition of the child from early to pre-primary education, is not considered sufficiently 'careful'
Summary
Hero Peuteropvang Generaal Spoorlaan in Haarlem is a toddler daycare for 16 children aged 2 to 4 years. The Municipal Health Service (GGD) Kennemerland conducted an unannounced annual inspection on 13 November 2025. The location meets all assessed quality requirements regarding pedagogical climate, staff, and groups. No violations were identified. Several points for attention were discussed with the cluster manager, in particular concerning the description of how activities are organised when children may leave their core group, and the manner in which the substantive connection between early and pre-primary education is shaped. These points will be included in the annual evaluation. The advice to the municipality is to take no enforcement measures.
