About this care

AI
Welcome to Small Ones Daycare located at Nickeriestraat 54 in Amsterdam West. We are a small-scale daycare centre where personal attention and a homely atmosphere are paramount. Our location provides professional care for up to 29 children aged 0 to 4 years. Thanks to our limited group size, we can give every toddler and baby the individual care and attention they deserve. Our pedagogical approach is based on the four core goals of childcare: emotional security, personal competence, social competence and the transfer of norms and values. We work according to the Gordon Method, in which communication is highly valued. Not only between our pedagogical staff members, but especially with the children. We teach them in a positive way to express their feelings and needs. The location is within walking distance of Erasmuspark. We regularly make trips there so that the children can enjoy nature and run around to their heart's content. Opposite our daycare is a playground that we also use. Outdoor play is very important to us; it stimulates motor development and offers endless discoveries. Our groups are vertically arranged, which means that children of different ages play and learn together. This promotes social development and the younger children learn from the older ones. We use a homely interior, where children quickly feel at home. There are quiet corners for sleeping, but also plenty of space to play and explore. Small Ones Daycare is open 5 days a week, 52 weeks a year. We therefore do not close during school holidays, which is ideal for working parents. We believe it is important that parents and children feel welcome. That is why our team is always ready for a personal conversation and a tour. Together we ensure a safe and stimulating environment in which your child can grow and flourish optimally.

Summary

The annual inspection by GGD Amsterdam on 20 April 2026 shows that daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) Small Ones meets all quality requirements. The location has 2 core groups for a maximum of 29 children aged 0 to 4 years. The team of 7 childcare professionals, 2 of whom are new since last year, is characterised by stability; no external temporary staff are used, but colleagues from other locations are deployed. The pedagogical policy scores well on emotional safety, personal skills and language development. Children are personally involved in activities and encouraged to be independent. All staff members hold the correct qualifications and Certificates of Good Conduct (VOG). There is a functioning parent committee of 3 members. At certain times, deviations from the staff-to-child ratio occur, but this is for a maximum of 3 hours per day with at least half the required number of childcare professionals present and always another adult present. No violations or areas for improvement were identified.
