Montessori Kindercentrum Schiedam

Welcome to Montessori day-care Casa dei Bambini at De Meesterstraat 40 in Schiedam. We provide small-scale childcare in a homely atmosphere for children aged 0 to 4 years. Our day-care is located in the same building as Montessori Primary School Schiedam and we work closely with the school, creating a smooth transition for your child. We follow Maria Montessori’s vision: “Help me to do it myself”. Children are given space to make their own choices and develop at their own pace. Our specially trained pedagogical staff carefully observe each child and offer activities that match his or her developmental stage. The group is equipped with Montessori materials that invite independent discovery and learning. We use vertical groups: children from 0 to 4 years are together. This stimulates social development; younger children learn from the older ones and older children develop care and responsibility. Both full-day and half-day care are available and we are open from 7:00 AM to 6:30 PM on weekdays, excluding national holidays. Outdoor play is part of our daily routine. We have a garden/playground where children can move freely and explore nature. The small scale (about 10-15 children) ensures a familiar, safe environment in which each child receives the attention they deserve. Parents experience us as a warm place where their child enjoys going.
