About this care
KDV de Woudstappers is located in the modern multifunctional centre MFA de Westwijzer in the heart of Westwoud. As part of Kappio childcare, we work closely with primary school de Westwijzer, offering your child a seamless developmental path from baby to toddler. Our location accommodates up to 28 children and is specially designed for children aged 0 to 4.
We believe every child is unique and deserves to develop optimally in a safe, secure environment. Our qualified pedagogical staff provide knowledgeable and loving care for your child. The spaces are furnished in a homely, modern style with separate sleeping areas where your baby can rest peacefully. We use themes and storylines that connect with young children's worlds. Daily activities include crafts, singing and reading aloud. We often start and end the day outdoors, where children can play in our green garden with challenging play opportunities.
As a daycare centre, we provide expert care for your baby, with attention to feeding, sleep routines and those crucial first developmental steps. For toddlers, the focus is on learning through play and preparation for primary school. We collaborate with primary school de Westwijzer on a continuous learning pathway. Children with early childhood education (VVE) indications can participate in a special programme. We want your child to feel at home with us, so you can work with peace of mind.Read more

Summary
Daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) de Woudstappers in Westwoud provides daycare for up to 26 children (ages 0-4) in two core groups. The inspection on 5 June 2025 identified one shortcoming: the registration of developmental goals within early childhood education (voorschoolse educatie/VE) had not been kept up to date after July 2024. All other assessed areas met the legal requirements. The location has a clear pedagogical policy, safe spaces, sufficiently qualified staff, and good parent communication. Immediately after the inspection visit, a recovery plan was initiated: extra coaching, practical examples, and a more accessible registration system. The Municipal Health Service (GGD) advises the municipality of Drechterland to enforce in accordance with the enforcement policy.
