About this care
Kinderdagverblijf H@ppykids is located in primary school St. Jozef at Bisschop Hopmansstraat 1 in Noordhoek. Our daycare is designed for children aged 0 to 4 years. We provide care for parents who work or study, and also offer toddler care to prepare toddlers for their start at primary school.
We use the Uk and Puk programme. Manon and Sabine have both recently obtained their certificates to work with the children according to this method. Puk, the puppet from the programme, is the first friend your child makes with us. We work with themes that last about 4 weeks, followed by a rest week. Every day we aim to have one-on-one moments with all children, apart from nappy-changing and feeding moments.
Our group consists of a maximum of 14 children and we work with a fixed small team. This means that each of us knows the children and parents well. We find contact with parents very important; parent and child must feel safe and familiar.
In addition to regular childcare with or without holidays, we also offer flexible and incidental childcare. We are open Monday to Friday from 07:00 to 18:30. You pay per 15 minutes. The costs include nappies, fruit, drinks and snacks.Read more
