About this care
Welcome to KDV Het Paleis, located in the quiet Parkwijk district of Almere. We are a small-scale daycare center providing loving care for children aged 0 to 4 years. Our facility consists of four groups with space for 52 children in total. Each group has its own outdoor area equipped with natural wooden play equipment where children can safely play and explore.
At Het Paleis, we believe healthy nutrition is essential. We provide warm meals for the children, ensuring they are well cared for throughout the day. We offer toddler gym and toddler dance activities to stimulate children's motor development in a playful way.
We collaborate with primary school De Kraanvogel, creating a smooth transition to elementary education. Parent involvement is very important to us. Through the Konnect app, you receive photos and personal reports of your child, allowing you to stay connected with their daily activities. We regularly invite parents for information evenings and parent meetings.
Our qualified childcare professionals are ready to provide your child with a safe and stimulating environment where they can develop optimally. We believe in small-scale care with personal attention for each child.Read more
