About this care
Welcome to BSO Icarus by Les Petits, located in a welcoming school space at Kerklaan 90 in Heemstede. We provide after-school care for up to 40 children aged 4 to 12, divided into two groups: the Lions and the Giraffes. Each day, four dedicated pedagogical staff members are ready to care for your child with attention and enthusiasm.
On Wednesdays and Fridays, when fewer children attend, we join our BSO location at Cruquiusweg, situated on the grounds of HBC football club. There, children can enjoy outdoor play and sports activities. During school study days and holidays, children are welcome for full-day care; you may choose a contract with or without holiday care, or even fully flexible arrangements.
Holidays are extra special with us. We venture out to nearby Groenendaal Forest, the beach, or other exciting places using our own bus. Every holiday program is created in collaboration with the children, as we value child participation. They help decide on activities, outings, and even the layout and purchase of play materials.
We also regularly offer Discover! workshops, where children can try new sports or hobbies such as judo, yoga, or science. This allows them to explore their talents and passions in a fun and engaging way.Read more
