About this care
Welcome to TintelTuin De Vijf Sterren, located at Markengouw 245C in Amsterdam-North. We are an Integral Child Center (IKC) offering care for children aged 0 to 12 years at the daycare facility (KDV), preschool and after-school care (BSO).
We work closely with the De Vijf Sterren primary school and use the school's facilities, such as the renewed and greened schoolyard, football field and gymnasiums. Our daycare offers a homely atmosphere with calm colors and many low seating areas, where children learn through discovery while playing.
We are open from Monday to Friday from 7:30 AM to 6:30 PM and provide care for children aged 0 to 4 years. We serve a healthy warm meal at lunchtime. For more information or to schedule a tour, please contact us at 020-6360008 or vijfsterren@tinteltuin.nl.Read more

GGD Inspection
Violations
Inspection date: May 29, 2026
Strengths
- Warm and emotionally safe environment for babies and toddlers
- Good language stimulation and creative activities tailored to children
- Staff are well-informed about the heat protocol and apply it correctly
- Strong cooperation with primary school De Vijf Sterren with warm handovers
- Sufficient deployment of pedagogical coach (700 hours per year)
- All permanent staff hold the correct diplomas and early education (VVE) certificates
Violations

Summary
The annual inspection of 29 May 2026 at daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) Vijf Sterren in Amsterdam shows predominantly good pedagogical quality, but identifies a repeated violation in the area of early childhood education (VVE). The staff provide a warm, safe environment with attention to language development and social skills. The VVE programme Startblokken is implemented well and the cooperation with primary school De Vijf Sterren is structural. A serious concern is the deployment of unqualified temporary staff in VVE groups. On two days (26 and 28 May 2026), agency workers without the required VVE certificate and language proficiency level worked alongside a permanent staff member. The holder acknowledges this in their response, but emphasises the continuity of care. Because this is a repeated violation, no recovery offer was made. The Municipal Health Service (GGD) advises enforcement.
Reviews
Lerares op deze school zegt op tiktok dat kinderen lelijk zijn
Personeel is erg onvriendelijk en verwaand gedrag
Bewust gekozen voor deze school ondanks het feit dat er op loopstand een school in de buurt zit. Een fijne school met veel hulpmiddelen en begeleiding...
