About this care
Welcome to Kinderdagverblijf op eXpeditie in Heemskerk! We are a small-scale, green daycare located at Gounodstraat 11A. Our focus is on calm, space and natural development. We provide care for up to 16 children in one vertical group for ages 1 to 4. Our play area is bright and calm, furnished with sustainable toys made from natural materials. Children can fully express themselves in our adventurous outdoor garden, where they naturally engage with nature. We even have our own vegetable garden!
At Kinderdagverblijf op eXpeditie we believe that being outdoors is essential for children's development. That's why we go on many outings and use natural products. We offer a fun, educational and relaxed daycare where every child gets the space to develop at their own pace. We are open every weekday from 6:45 AM to 5:45 PM, so parents can use our care flexibly. Both half and full days are possible.
Our small scale creates a homely atmosphere where every child feels safe and seen. We pay a lot of attention to personal development and encourage children to discover, explore and learn from their own curiosity. At Kinderdagverblijf op eXpeditie your child is central in an environment that invites play, growth and flourishing.Read more

Summary
KDV op eXpeditie in Heemskerk is a small-scale daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) for 16 children (ages 1-4), operated as a sole proprietorship. The Municipal Health Service (GGD) found that the pedagogical practice is good: childcare professionals provide emotional safety, personal attention, and stimulate social development. All staff members meet the training requirements and language requirement, and hold a valid Certificate of Good Conduct (VOG). One violation was identified: the pedagogical policy plan does not contain a description of the tasks and supervision of the intern, who has been working at the location since late October 2025. This will be reassessed at the next annual inspection in 2026. No recovery offer was made for this violation. The owner acknowledges the shortcoming in her response and states that the intern is not deployed formally and is continuously under supervision.
