About this care
Welcome to Kindergarden De Enk in Arnhem, located in the characteristic former Akzo Nobel building at Tivolilaan 189 in the Velperweg-Noord neighborhood. Our GGD-certified daycare provides professional childcare for up to 121 children aged 0 to 4 years. We operate with horizontal groups, organizing children by age: babies, toddlers, preschoolers, and toddler-plus.
Our baby group features play mats, a black-and-white corner, discovery mirrors, and a separate movement area. For outdoor activities, we have crawling overalls ready for the little ones. Toddlers enjoy our storytelling corner with sofas, cushions, and a puppet theater. The preschool groups have their own movement space that we use extensively for motor skill development.
The outdoor area is a major asset of our location. The natural playground is specially designed for every developmental area and age group. Outdoor play is central to our philosophy: children learn to cooperate, solve problems independently, and develop their endurance. We serve fresh warm meals daily, prepared with attention to nutrition and health.
Our location is easily accessible, within walking distance of Velperpoort and Presikhaaf train stations. We provide a safe and stimulating environment where every child has the space to develop at their own pace.Read more
