We offer a safe and challenging environment where children can relax, play, and discover new things after school. Each group has its own space with different areas for relaxation, play, and creative activities. We work with professional pedagogical staff who understand how important it is to give children space to be themselves while stimulating their development.
Our BSO is small-scale and has a homely atmosphere, making children feel at home quickly. We have our own outdoor space where children can play and move to their heart's content. Additionally, we regularly organize fun activities and outings that match the children's interests. We collaborate with schools in the area to ensure a smooth transition from school to after-school care.
At Smallsteps Pollewop, the child is at the center. We believe it's important that every child feels seen and heard.
