About this care
Peuterschool De Ark is located at Maarsbergenstraat 169C in The Hague’s Leyenburg district and forms an integral part of Kindcentrum De Ark. We provide Christian toddler care for children from 2.5 years old in a safe, homely environment. Our horizontal groups follow an Early Childhood Education (VVE) programme, allowing your toddler to develop the skills needed for a flying start at primary school through play.
We open our doors on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday from 08:15 – 11:45 and from 12:15 – 14:45; on Wednesday mornings only from 08:15 – 11:45. These flexible half-day sessions make it easy for parents to match childcare to their personal schedules. Within our small-scale groups, Christian identity is central: we celebrate Bible stories, sing songs and teach children to interact with one another from a place of respect and love.
Our pedagogical staff work closely with the teachers of CBS De Ark. Toddlers and infants regularly share the play-and-learn area, making the step to primary school literally and figuratively smaller. Older children come to read aloud, craft or join in themed activities. In this way, toddlers experience early on what it means to be part of a close-knit school community.
Would you like to experience how we work? You are warmly invited for a tour. Together with your child you can get to know our spaces, our team and our approach. Registration is possible via peuterschooldeark@scoh.nl or by phone on 070-359 95 58.Read more

Summary
Peuterschool De Ark in 's-Gravenhage was inspected on January 30, 2026 by GGD Haaglanden. The preschool, located within primary school De Ark, provides care for a maximum of 15 children aged 2.5-4 years across 2 groups. The pedagogical climate is positive: staff create a warm, emotionally safe environment and stimulate social interaction between children. Safety, health, accommodation, and staff qualifications meet the requirements. A violation was identified in the domain of early childhood education (voorschoolse educatie/VE): not all children can receive the mandatory 960 hours of VE within 1.5 years because the Wednesday session is only available for children with a VE indication. Children without an indication receive a maximum of 720 hours. The holder has responded with a formal response, pointing to a temporary increase in indicated children due to automatic indication and expecting the situation to improve now that this policy has been phased out.
