About this care
Peuterschool De Horizon is part of the Foundation for Protestant Christian Playgroups and is located within De Horizon primary school in the Laak district of The Hague. Our preschool offers childcare for children from 2.5 to 4 years old in a safe and familiar environment. We operate from a Christian identity where every child is seen and heard.
At our preschool, toddlers learn through play, discovery and doing things themselves. We provide a rich play and learning environment where children can play to their heart's content and make friends. Our pedagogical staff guide the children with great attention and care, using the Pyramid method. This method stimulates language development and creates a continuous line from preschool to primary school.
The preschool group rooms are adjacent to an enclosed outdoor space where children can play and explore safely. We offer both morning and afternoon care, with parents having the flexibility to choose half or full days. During care, children receive healthy snacks and drinks, taking into account any allergies or dietary requirements.
Our preschool works intensively with De Horizon primary school, ensuring a smooth transition to primary education. We believe it is important that every child feels safe and comfortable, so they come to preschool with pleasure and can develop optimally.Read more

Summary
Peuterschool De Horizon in 's-Gravenhage is a daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) with 32 places for children aged 2.5-4 years offering subsidised early childhood education. The inspection on 17 February 2025 shows that the location meets all statutory requirements: the pedagogical policy is up to date and consistently implemented, safety is well ensured, and staff are qualified. No violations were found. The location works closely with primary school De Horizon, uses the early childhood education programme Speelpleiser, and actively involves parents through open play sessions, newsletters, and outings. One area for improvement is that no parent committee has yet been formed; the organisation is still seeking volunteers. The municipality is advised not to take enforcement measures.
