About this care
Welcome to De Vrolijke Mol, a small-scale daycare centre for children aged 0β4 in the βs Gravenland district of Capelle aan den IJssel. Since 1 September 2014 we have opened our doors every weekday from 07:00 to 18:00 for up to 16 children. We offer trust, warmth and a homely atmosphere where every child is free to be themselves.
Outdoor play is very important to us. Our spacious and inviting garden gives children plenty of room to explore, move and play in a natural environment that extends the indoor group space.
Our small size guarantees calm and overview, allowing us to give each child the personal attention they deserve. We work from a clear pedagogical policy plan that parents can download from our website. Before care starts we schedule an intake interview to discuss your childβs daily routine and needs, followed by a careful settling-in programme: first together with parents, then independently, so your child can get used to us at their own pace.
Hygiene and safety are paramount. Shoe covers are required when entering, and all staff hold a valid Certificate of Good Conduct (VOG). We are affiliated with the Disputes Committee for Childcare and have an active parent committee that advises on policy, safety and quality.
Feel free to visit us without obligation or contact Chantal Trouwborst on 010 β 785 4728 or kdvdevrolijkemol@gmail.com. We look forward to showing you how we can provide the very best care for your child together with you.Read more

Summary
The Municipal Health Service (GGD) conducted an unannounced annual inspection at kindercentrum De Vrolijke Mol in Capelle aan den IJssel on 11 August 2026. The daycare (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) for children aged 0 to 4 years, with 16 places, meets all assessed quality requirements. The pedagogical climate is positive: staff respond warmly and responsively, stimulate language development, and provide emotional security. Personnel matters (Certificate of Good Conduct/VOG's, qualifications, ratios) and parental rights (information provision, complaints procedure) are also in order. The parent committee has not been active since May 2026; the provider is working on an alternative parent consultation. No violations were identified. The previous inspection (February 2025) also showed full compliance. Advice to the municipality: no enforcement.
