About this care
Welcome to the daycare center of IKC De Meeander located at Hofkampstraat in Varsseveld. We provide daycare for children aged 0 to 4 years in a fresh and cozy environment. Our location is open all day from 07:00 to 18:30 and is easily accessible with ample parking facilities.
We operate with three horizontal groups: a group for children aged 0 to 2 years, a group for children aged 1 to 4 years, and a group for children aged 2 to 4 years. Each group has age-appropriate play materials that stimulate your child's development. Our pedagogical staff see every child as a unique personality who has the right to develop at their own pace.
Our location features its own outdoor space with a beautiful, naturally designed adventure garden of no less than 1500 m2. We make full use of the facilities within the IKC, such as the sports hall, children's cooking café, and art studio. Thanks to our special outdoor beds, your child can sleep in the fresh and healthy outdoor air.
Within IKC De Meeander, primary school De Meeander and Childcare Zonnekinderen work intensively together. This allows your child to meet the kindergarten children within our IKC. By playing together, they learn from each other and the transition to kindergarten becomes less daunting! IKC De Meeander is the place where your child grows up together with others in a continuous development line and gets the chance to develop their talents.Read more

Summary
The annual inspection of 10 June 2025 of daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) IKC De Meeander in Varsseveld shows that the location meets the statutory quality requirements following corrective measures. The childcare facility, part of Zonnekinderen B.V., accommodates 48 children across three groups (0-2, 1-3 and 2-4 years with early childhood education). During the inspection, two shortcomings were identified: the absence of a complete training plan for early childhood education and an incomplete description in the safety and health policy regarding its accessibility to staff and parents. Both violations were resolved following a recovery offer. The pedagogical practice was assessed positively: staff know the children well, work thematically and provide emotional security. Personnel hold the correct qualifications and Certificate of Good Conduct (VOG) declarations. The Municipal Health Service (GGD) advises no enforcement action.
