About this care
Welcome to Merijn Daycare, a small-scale and trusted childcare centre located right in the heart of Delft. We provide care for children aged 0 to 4 years in two horizontal groups: one for babies and one for toddlers. Our experienced and permanent staff offer a predictable daily rhythm that balances play, discovery and rest.
Children sing, dance and do crafts linked to weekly themes. Indoors we have dedicated corners, and outside we have our own secure garden for daily outdoor play. A warm lunch and healthy snacks are included, as are nappies and all care products. Parents experience Merijn as a loving second home where open communication and flexibility are key.
In short, at Merijn children find a wonderful place to grow, play and make friends under the guidance of dedicated professionals.Read more
Practical info
Sick child policy
We have clear guidelines for illness. If your child has a temperature of 38°C or higher, we ask that you pick them up. At 38.5°C or higher, your child may only return once they have been fever-free for 24 hours. It is not permitted to give fever-reducing medication and then bring your child to Merijn. If in doubt, you can always call to discuss with the childcare staff.
