About this care
Welcome to Marlynedok, our daycare centre located at Schoener 120 in Barendrecht. Since August 2022 we are housed in the building of primary school OBS de Tweemaster, on a quiet spot where children aged 0 to 4 can develop at their own pace.
Marlynedok operates one vertical daycare group in which babies, toddlers and pre-schoolers play and learn together. This setup fits our pedagogical vision: every child develops in his or her own tempo and in his or her own way. Two to three qualified pedagogical staff guide the group, depending on the number of children present and always in compliance with legal requirements.
Our service is all-in. Healthy, mainly organic meals, drinks and snacks are included without extra charge. Diapers and care products are also part of the package, so parents can work or study without worry. We provide early childhood education (VE), allowing children to practise language, numeracy and social skills through play.
We are open 52 weeks a year, from 07:00 to 19:00. Feel free to visit for a tour and experience how we give children room to grow in confidence.Read more

Summary
Kindercentrum Marlynedok in Barendrecht, part of Eiland Marlyne B.V., was inspected on 20 May 2026 by the Municipal Health Service (GGD) Rotterdam-Rijnmond. The annual inspection shows a predominantly positive picture. The daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) for 32 children (0-4 years) meets almost all quality requirements. The pedagogical practice is good: staff work sensitively and responsively, provide structure, and stimulate children's development. Personnel hold the correct diplomas, Certificate of Good Conduct (VOG) declarations, and language proficiency at level 3F. Staff-to-child ratios are in order. However, one point of attention was identified regarding early childhood education: the 'Fit with Puk' theme was not visible in the group room due to missing children's work and images. The quality staff member will discuss this with the coach and practitioners. No violations were found and no recovery offer was issued. The GGD advises the municipality not to take enforcement measures.
