About this care

AI
Welcome to Kindcentrum Dikkertje Dap, located at Langewijk 184 in the heart of Dedemsvaart. We are part of Stichting Welluswijs, an organization that has been providing high-quality childcare in the Hardenberg region for over 25 years. Our childcare center is an Integral Child Center (IKC), where we work closely with education and other care partners to ensure a continuous developmental path for your child. At Dikkertje Dap, we offer daycare for children aged 0 to 4 years in a safe, homely environment. Our pedagogical staff are professionally trained and ready to give your child the best care and attention. We work with vertical groups, meaning children of different ages (0-4 years) are together in one group. This ensures that babies, toddlers, and preschoolers learn from each other and stimulate each other's development. Our services include daycare from Monday to Friday, 7:30 AM to 6:00 PM, with flexible childcare options available. We offer both fixed day parts and guaranteed flexible care per quarter hour. For parents who need earlier or later care, we offer the possibility of extended hours by arrangement. We also provide a playgroup for children aged 2 to 4 years, Monday to Friday from 8:45 AM to 12:45 PM. We believe it is important that children feel at ease and can develop optimally. Therefore, we offer a stimulating learning environment where play and development are central. The toddler program prepares children from age 2 for primary education, ensuring a smooth transition between daycare and school. Every day we sing together with the children, who can choose the next song via a song basket. Our pedagogical staff member accompanies this on the guitar. At Stichting Welluswijs, the child is at the center. We provide a safe and familiar environment in which your child can develop at his or her own pace. We follow a pedagogical policy plan that is translated into a pedagogical work plan for each location, so that we make our organization's vision and values concrete in daily practice. In short, at Kindcentrum Dikkertje Dap in Dedemsvaart, we offer professional, loving care in which your child feels safe and at home. We look forward to working with you to stimulate and guide your child's development.

4
Violations
All assessed conditions have been sufficiently restored and are in compliance with the Childcare Act (Wet kinderopvang). The shortcomings identified in the previous follow-up investigation have been resolved.

Strengths

  • The provider has made a deliberate choice not to merge groups, offering more calm and structure
  • Staff and children experience positive effects from smaller, more stable groups
  • Written agreements and parental consent for second base groups are now properly arranged
  • Improvement is visible and traceable in the KidsKonnect administrative system

Violations

  • Childcare was not provided on the basis of a written agreement for all children (resolved)
  • Children were structurally cared for in more than one base group without written consent (resolved)
  • Children aged 0-1 years used more than two base group rooms (resolved)
  • Incorrect planning in KidsKonnect: children were scheduled in their original base group while care actually took place elsewhere (resolved)

Summary

This extended follow-up investigation at Kindcentrum Dikkertje Dap in Dedemsvaart, conducted on 7 April 2026 by GGD IJsselland, assessed whether previously identified shortcomings had been resolved. The annual investigation of 29 September 2025 and follow-up investigation of 9 February 2026 revealed shortcomings regarding administration and stability of care. Children were structurally cared for in more than one base group without a written agreement or parental consent, and children aged 0-1 years were merged on multiple days. The provider chose to no longer merge groups, but to run them separately. This offers more calm and predictability for children. All assessed conditions are now sufficiently restored and in compliance with the Childcare Act (Wet kinderopvang).
