About this care

AI
Welcome to Kindergarden Amsterdam Haveneiland, located at Hollandiagracht 101 in the heart of IJburg. Our daycare center offers a spacious, bright and homely environment with a fantastic view over the water. The location is designed to provide children aged 0 to 4 with a safe and stimulating place where they can grow into confident and curious individuals. We work with horizontal groups, where children are placed in age groups. This ensures a calm and safe environment in which each child receives the attention they deserve. Our pedagogical staff are specialized in the development of babies and toddlers and provide each child with a warm and loving environment. We follow a clear daily routine focused on rest, predictability and challenge. Our location features multiple terraces and a large garden where children can play and explore. We provide daily fresh hot meals prepared by our own chef. For the youngest ones, we provide customized bottle feeding. All diapers, wipes and care products are included and from top brands such as Pampers, Naty, Naïf and Sudocrem. At Kindergarden Haveneiland, we work with the proven Kindergarden program. This program stimulates children's development in cognitive, motor, social-emotional and creative areas. We offer activities such as music, arts and language development. Outdoor sleeping is also an option, contributing to healthy sleep and fresh air. We believe it's important for parents to be involved in their child's development. That's why we use a parent app to keep you updated on your child's daily experiences. We also offer half-day care options, allowing you to be flexible with your own schedule. Feel free to come take a look at our location and experience for yourself the warm atmosphere and professional care of Kindergarden Amsterdam Haveneiland.

Summary

Kindergarden Amsterdam Haveneiland (daycare center/kinderdagverblijf) was inspected unannounced on 3 June 2025. The location provides responsible childcare: the pedagogical climate is warm and safe, staff respond sensitively to children, stimulate language and independence, and know each child well. All staff hold the required qualifications, Certificates of Conduct (VOGs), and provide adequate supervision. There is always someone with a valid first-aid certificate present and an active parent committee. One violation was identified: on 27 May 2025, two baby groups were temporarily merged due to staff shortage, while children should remain in their fixed core group. The location manager corrected this within the investigation period and ensured the children slept in their own beds. The Municipal Health Service (GGD) considers the choice to have been responsible and in the children's best interests, and therefore advises the municipality not to take enforcement action.
