About this care
BSO Kids&Zoo is located at Brinkenhalte 24, 7812 HX Emmen and is part of the Kinderwereld organisation. Registered in the National Childcare Register under number 160522043 since 2 December 2014, the after-school facility welcomes up to 40 children aged 4 to 12 years.
Our qualified pedagogical staff are ready every weekday to give children a safe, homely and stimulating place after school. Guided by Kinderwereld’s core values—reliability, expertise, a well-considered pedagogical policy, ample play space, creating opportunities, respectful interaction and close cooperation with all local primary schools—we collect children directly from school and accompany them to our location.
The rooms at BSO Kids&Zoo are arranged into different corners so children can choose their own activities: creative and craft areas, a quiet reading corner, construction zone and plenty of space for movement and games. We also make frequent use of nearby playgrounds and nature areas for outdoor play and discovery. We believe it is important that children can develop freely and follow their own interests, supported and encouraged by our professionals whenever needed.
Parents can rely on us for both before-school care (VSO) and after-school care. Our opening hours are aligned with the timetables of the primary schools we work with in Emmen.
