About this care
Welcome to Atalenta KDV Dondersteentjes, located at Willem Smuldersplein 4a in the heart of Waalre. As part of the trusted Atalenta childcare organisation, we offer a home-like, safe place where children aged 0 to 4 can grow up in a creative environment. Our location has a maximum capacity of 80 places and has been registered in the National Childcare Register since 1 January 2010 under number 139116060, allowing parents to apply for childcare allowance.
At Dondersteentjes we believe every child is unique. We provide a playful and safe environment that sparks curiosity and nurtures the natural urge to explore. Our activities are carefully designed and tailored to the developmental stage of young children. Through investigative play and creative expression we stimulate social, emotional and cognitive development. We work closely with primary schools De Drijfveer and De Meent, ensuring a continuous development line from 0-13 years.
Our experienced pedagogical staff create a warm, homely atmosphere where children feel safe and valued. We have spacious, bright group rooms and a sheltered outdoor garden where children can play and discover every day. Healthy nutrition and sufficient rest are high on our agenda; separate sleeping rooms are available for this purpose. Parents stay informed through our own Childcare App with photos, messages and practical information.
Feel free to come by for a tour and experience for yourself how we make every day an adventure for your child. Together we ensure the best start in life.Read more
