About this care
Welcome to Kindcentrum Platijn, located at Maatstok 1 in the Dijkstraten district of Best. We are an integrated child center where education and childcare seamlessly come together. Our daycare provides care for children aged 0 to 4 years in a stimulating environment that matches your child's development.
Everything we do revolves around stimulating children's natural curiosity. We work with the Startblokken method, specially developed for young children. Our oldest toddlers regularly visit the kindergarten classes of the elementary school, ensuring a smooth transition to primary education. We take pride in our natural playground where children can play and discover daily. Additionally, we frequently use the natural playground in the Dijkstraten district, located right next to our center.
Our pedagogical staff create a safe and stimulating environment where every child can develop optimally. We offer both horizontal groups (same-age peers) and flexible care, tailored to your family's needs. The daycare is open from 7:30 AM to 6:30 PM, providing ample coverage for your working hours.
Together with parents, we work on the development of each child. We believe it's important that children feel seen and heard, so they can grow with pleasure and wonder. Our approach focuses on discovering talents and developing self-confidence, utilizing the rich learning environment that our child center provides.Read more
