About this care
KinderCentrum Mergelland is located in Cadier en Keer and is part of a unique 'broad school' setting, together with De Keerkring primary school and Pinokkio preschool. Our daycare section offers care for up to 24 children aged 0 to 4 years in mixed-age groups. We believe children discover the world through play. Our team of pedagogical professionals guides each child with personal attention in a safe and loving environment.
We provide early childhood education (VVE) from 2.5 years onwards, focusing on language, numeracy, and social skills through playful activities. Our outdoor playground offers plenty of space for exploration and movement. We offer flexible childcare options and allow parents to swap days when needed. Formula feeding is included, but parents provide diapers.
We are open from 07:45 to 18:00 on weekdays throughout the year (excluding public holidays). We welcome flexible care arrangements and work closely with parents and education partners to create the best developmental environment for every child.Read more
