About this care
Welcome to De Troetels, the daycare centre of Kinderopvang Mirakel in Vinkeveen. We provide care for up to 28 children aged 0 to 4 in a homely, safe environment where every child is free to be themselves and given space to grow at their own pace. Our location at Voorbancken 10C is beautifully situated by the water and features a spacious garden where children go outside daily to play, explore and learn.
We work with horizontal groups: 'De Bengeltjes' for children aged 0-2 and 'De Boefjes' for children aged 2-4. This classification allows us to coordinate the layout, play materials and activities well with the needs and interests of the age group. Step by step, they develop through play. We offer a challenging activity programme: music lessons for babies and toddlers, toddlers' gym and we work around a new theme every 5 to 6 weeks. Toddlers can also take part in Peuterplus activities based on the Pyramid method.
Healthy food and adventurous play are central. We provide fruit and drinks throughout the day and bottle feeding for the very youngest. Our spacious, bright group rooms are tailored to the needs of babies and toddlers and include comfortable sleeping areas. When the weather is nice, children can even sleep outside in our outdoor cribs. In spring we lay out our vegetable garden together with the children.
Our professional staff are ready every day to give your child a warm home away from home. We are open from 07.45 am to 6.15 pm with the possibility of extended childcare from 07.30 am at an adjusted rate. Curious? We would love to invite you for a tour so you can experience the atmosphere yourself.Read more

Summary
Daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) De Troetels in Vinkeveen was subject to further investigation by the Municipal Health Service (GGD) on 28 May 2025. The location now meets all assessed quality requirements. Key strengths include the organization's prompt and full cooperation with recovery efforts: the employment contract of the staff member in training has been adjusted to a minimum of 20 hours per week, schedules have been aligned with this standard, and the hiring policy has been updated.
