About this care
Welcome to Kinderopvang Kroontjes, a warm, familiar and inspiring place at Zandstraat 137 in Veenendaal where your child feels at home from day one. We are a small-scale daycare centre for children aged 0 to 4. In one close-knit vertical group of up to 16 children, babies, toddlers and pre-schoolers grow up together. They learn from and with each other, build friendships and lay a strong foundation for the future.
Our experienced pedagogical staff welcome every child with open arms and provide a safe, creative environment focused on learning and discovery. For toddlers we offer a special programme with extra attention to language development, social skills and independence. Think of circle time, thematic play and preparatory activities towards primary school. This way your toddler grows at their own pace to the next step.
Everything is included with us: nappies and wipes from Kruidvat, formula, sunscreen, a healthy lunch, fresh fruit, raw vegetables, yoghurt and drinks. Fun (craft) activities are also standard, so you don't have to worry about anything. We require a minimum of 5.5 hours of childcare per day and offer flexible options, with at least one fixed day per week.
Kinderopvang Kroontjes stands for small-scale, professional and creative childcare. We believe in the power of a close group where every child feels safe, loved and seen. Together we give your child the very best start!Read more

Summary
Kinderopvang Kroontjes in Veenendaal, a daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) for 16 children aged 0-4 years, was inspected on 19 January 2026. The location is compliant following recovery offer in the areas of pedagogical climate and safety and health, but is non-compliant in the domain of staff and groups. Three violations were identified for which recovery offers were made: not following developmental monitoring according to policy, missing description of staff deployment in policy, and three shortcomings in safety and health (cleaning products, hand hygiene, and CO2 meters). All recovery offers were successfully completed. One staff member was found to lack valid infant care training for work with 0-year-olds; this was subsequently obtained but the employee was formally deployed without the correct qualification. The Municipal Health Service (GGD) advises enforcement.
