About this care
Daycare Buddies Brink is located in the green heart of Gaasperdam, in the residential area of Holendrecht-Oost. We are part of IKC de Brink and work closely with primary school de Brink and various external professionals. Our location is within walking distance of Holendrecht metro station and close to the Gooiseweg and A9.
We provide care for up to 16 children aged 2 to 4 years in a single VVE group called 'De Rupsen'. Through our collaboration within IKC de Brink, children are introduced to primary education using the same VVE programme, aligned themes, and shared facilities such as the natural playground and gym. We also organise joint activities like themed activities, celebrations, and parent contact moments.
Our pedagogical staff regularly take the children out into the neighbourhood: we walk to Gaasperpark, Bijlmerpark or the library, shop at the market, visit petting farm Brinkie and play on the playgrounds in Holendrecht.
Opening hours during school weeks: 4 days a week from 08:30 to 12:30; the VVE group is closed on Wednesdays.Read more
