About this care
Peuteropvang Puk is located in primary school St. Jan de Doper at Rijnhuizenlaan 2 in Utrecht. We provide a safe and familiar environment where toddlers aged 2 to 4 years can develop through play. Our location follows the Pedagogical Heart of Kind&co ludens, giving children space to feel comfortable, have fun and grow in their development.
We offer preschool education (VE) using the Uk & Puk program, where children work on language and development skills through play. Our large and adventurous outdoor space offers plenty of opportunities for outdoor play and natural discoveries. We work with themes that change regularly and offer activities such as crafts, reading aloud, singing and movement.
The group consists of a maximum of 15 children aged 2 to 4 years. We have a fixed daily structure with morning care from 8.15 to 12.15, during which fruit and drinks are provided. Our pedagogical staff guide the children with great attention and care, working on social skills, independence and preparation for primary school.Read more

Summary
Peuteropvang Puk in Utrecht was inspected by the Municipal Health Service (GGD) on 3 July 2026. The facility offers 15 toddler places with early childhood education (VE) for children aged 2.5 to 4 years. The pedagogical climate was assessed positively: staff respond sensitively, provide structure, and encourage independence. However, one violation was identified: a regular temporary staff member no longer held a valid VE start certificate (expired on 6 March 2026). The location mistakenly believed the certificate was valid until October 2026. The provider submitted a statement of defence acknowledging this was an error and committing that the employee will only be redeployed after renewed training. Despite this statement, the GGD advises that enforcement action be taken.
