About this care
Welcome to daycare centre ’t Zandkasteel, located at Keinsmerweg 2 in ’t Zand. We are part of Bloem kinderopvang and provide professional childcare for children from 10 weeks to 4 years old. Our location works with three horizontal groups: the baby group (10 weeks – 2 years), the toddler group (1 – 3 years) and the pre-school plus group (2 – 4 years). This way every child receives care and stimulation that matches his or her stage of development.
We believe it is important that children feel safe and secure. That is why we work with fixed pedagogical staff who really get to know your child. Learning through play is central: we sing, dance, do crafts and read aloud, always tailored to the children’s age. For toddlers with an early-education indication we offer pre-school education, preparing them for primary school in a playful way.
Our spacious garden invites outdoor play and discovery. Every day we cook a fresh, hot meal and provide healthy snacks. Nappies, wipes and care products are included, as well as fruit and drinks. In short: you only need to bring your child – we take care of the rest.
Daycare centre ’t Zandkasteel is open 52 weeks a year from 6.30 a.m. to 6.00 p.m., so you stay flexible in work and private life. Feel free to drop by for a tour and experience our homely atmosphere yourself!Read more
