About this care
Kinderdagverblijf Madeliefje is a small-scale, professional childcare centre located in the Kersenboogerd neighbourhood centre at Brederodegracht 1 in Hoorn. We provide loving care for up to 32 children aged 0 to 4 years. Our group is organised vertically: children of different ages share the same space, allowing babies to observe toddlers and toddlers to learn to care for the little ones.
We deliberately tailor activities to each child’s age and interests and always offer an inspiring play and learning environment. We believe movement is healthy and important, so we devote extra attention to activities such as music, dance, drama and yoga. These activities are adapted to the developmental stage of toddlers and babies and stimulate both gross and fine motor skills.
Every day we serve a warm, organic and freshly prepared meal. Eating together is a moment of cosiness and calm where children learn to share and taste. Our small, permanent team of pedagogical staff ensures that your child always sees familiar faces, providing security and making morning drop-off and end-of-day handover smooth.
Kinderdagverblijf Madeliefje is only a five-minute walk from Kersenboogerd railway station and is housed in the same building as our after-school care. This offers the convenience that siblings aged 4-12 can stay and play at the same location when they move on to BSO. Our aim is for every child to arrive happily and go home cheerfully at the end of the day.Read more

Summary
The annual inspection by GGD Hollands Noorden of daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) Madeliefje in Hoorn took place on 26 February 2026. The location provides care for 32 children aged 0 to 4 years in two core groups. Initially, three violations were identified, but following recovery offers all conditions are now met. The pedagogical practice showed strong points: staff engaged in quality dialogue with children, gave appropriate autonomy, and effectively guided social interactions. The three violations concerned a missing description of extra half-days in the pedagogical policy, a pedagogical coach not timely linked in the Childcare Personnel Register (PRK), and missing proof of language proficiency at level 3F for one staff member. All three were resolved within the set deadline. The Municipal Health Service (GGD) advises the municipality of Hoorn not to apply enforcement action.
