About this care
Welcome to Kindercentrum Avonturen Tuin Appelscha, our small-scale anthroposophical daycare located on the wooded grounds of OlmenEs in Appelscha. We provide care for up to 14 children aged 0 to 4 years in a homely, vertical group where babies, toddlers and preschoolers play and learn together.
We focus on the individual approach of each child. Our permanent, experienced caregivers create a familiar environment where your child feels seen and known. No changing faces, but one trusted caregiver who welcomes your child every day. Because of this small scale, children get to know each other well and a warm, homely atmosphere is created that is never so busy that a child feels the need to shout to be heard.
Our pedagogical vision is inspired by anthroposophical developmental psychology. We work with natural materials and open-ended toys that stimulate imagination. No buttons for sirens, but children who create the siren themselves. Our fabric dolls invite nurturing play and imagination. In this way, children not only learn through play, but also develop their creativity and social skills.
The group has its own living room and separate bedrooms, so each child has their own place. We offer both full and half-day care. Feel free to come by for a visit and experience the atmosphere. You are most welcome!Read more

Summary
Kindercentrum Avonturen Tuin Appelscha is a small-scale, anthroposophical daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) with 14 places for children aged 0-4 years, located in a former church building. The Municipal Health Service (GGD) conducted an annual inspection on 28 November 2025. The childcare center meets all assessed requirements regarding training requirements, information provision, parent committee, and complaints procedure. Staff members hold the correct qualifications and the parent committee functions satisfactorily, although they indicated they are not informed about staff changes and the deployment of the pedagogical coach. This has been fed back to the provider. No complaints were submitted in the past year. In previous years (2023-2024), violations were identified, but these have since all been resolved.
