About this care
Kinderdagverblijf Pippi Hedel is a small-scale daycare located in the heart of the charming village of Hedel, at Voorstraat 3, right across from restaurant De Zwaan. We offer a safe and welcoming environment for up to 21 children per day, divided into two fixed groups: the Langkousjes and the Pippi’s. This setup allows us to tailor activities and attention to each child's age and developmental stage.
Our team of experienced and enthusiastic childcare professionals is dedicated to making every child feel at home. We work with consistent caregivers to build trust and familiarity, helping children feel secure and confident. We believe every child is unique, and we encourage them to be themselves while learning through play, interaction, and exploration.
Inside, we’ve created a cozy and adventurous space designed especially for young children. Outside, children can enjoy a secure garden where they can run, climb, and discover the world around them. We provide warm meals, healthy snacks, and quiet rest periods, including a dedicated sleeping area for babies and toddlers.
We are open Monday to Friday from 7:00 AM to 6:30 PM. Our daily routine includes playtime, creative activities like arts and crafts and reading, outdoor play, and plenty of personal attention. Before starting, we offer a personal introduction and tour so both you and your child can get to know our warm and caring environment.Read more
