About this care
Welcome to childcare centre Kleine Maan, a trusted place since 1995 on a quiet spot in Groningen’s Beijum district. We provide small-scale care for up to eleven children aged 0 to 4 years in one vertical group. Every day the same group leaders, Selma and Ingrid, are present so your child always sees familiar faces and can build a close bond. We work closely with parents, because every child is different. Our experienced staff place great value on teaching social skills and deliberately choose honest, organic food that meets the needs of your growing child. Feel free to visit by appointment so we can prepare your child for a first introduction.Read more
