About this care
Welcome to Kinderopvang De Postboot, located at Postweg 4 in the heart of Tholen. We provide professional daycare for children aged 0 to 4 years in a warm, homely environment. Our setting accommodates up to 36 children, divided into three horizontal groups so that children of similar ages can play and grow together.
Each group is arranged like a cosy living room, creating a safe and familiar atmosphere. We have a baby group for 0–1 year olds, a toddler group for 1–2 year olds and a pre-school group for 2–4 year olds. This structure offers calm, consistency and development tailored to every stage. Our qualified pedagogical staff guide the children with care and attention, allowing them to flourish.
We believe parents should be able to drop off their child worry-free. Therefore nappies, baby formula, bread, fruit, milk and juice are all included in our fee. Special or dietary food should be brought from home. Our mission is clear: to deliver high-quality childcare for children from 10 weeks to 4 years, based on common Dutch values and standards.
Kinderopvang De Postboot is the place where your child feels safe and at home, while you have the assurance of reliable daytime care. We warmly invite you to visit us for a personal tour so you can experience our approach and welcoming atmosphere first-hand.Read more
