About this care
Welcome to Kinderdagverblijf Ducky Duck, located in the heart of Zandvoort at Louis Davidscarré 1. Since 1994, we have been a trusted part of the community, growing from a small daycare center into a full-fledged childcare center housed in a multifunctional building that also includes two primary schools and a library. We provide care for children aged 0 to 4 years in four vertical groups, where babies, toddlers, and preschoolers play and learn together.
Our pedagogical staff literally sit on the floor among the children to observe who your child is and how they discover the world. They attune to each child’s pace, level, and interests by watching, communicating, and waiting to see what happens. In this way, we connect with what engages the children and offer a rich learning environment where children can gain knowledge on their own. We apply one pedagogical vision across the entire childcare center, with collaboration with parents at its core. We are curious about your stories and open to building a relationship of trust.
Kinderdagverblijf Ducky Duck is open 52 weeks a year from 07:00 to 19:00, closing only on official public holidays. Our daycare is officially registered in the National Childcare Register (LRK 129932395), allowing parents to apply for childcare allowance. We offer pre-school education (VE) and are supervised by the GGD Kennemerland.Read more
