About this care

AI
Welcome to BSO De Harlekijn, located at Multatulistraat 14 in the centre of Enschede. We are part of Humankind and have provided reliable after-school care for children aged 4 to 12 since 2010. Our location has room for up to 80 children and is open Monday to Friday from 07:30 to 18:30. Our central location allows us to take regular trips: we visit the library, the park, the petting zoo and the city centre – always an adventure close by. Inside and outside we offer large, homely spaces where children can move and explore freely. There is always something to do: playing outside, creative and cultural activities, or simply relaxing. Our qualified staff have years of experience and tailor activities to each child’s age and interests. This gives every child the space to develop optimally in a safe, familiar environment. We stand for a homely atmosphere, a secure play environment and a clear cultural approach. In short, at BSO De Harlekijn children find a second home after school where they can play, discover and grow.
