About this care
Welcome to Piratenschip, our cozy and welcoming daycare center located at Dronenplein 1a in the heart of Bodegraven. As part of Junis Kinderopvang, we provide care for up to 16 children per day in one intimate group setting. Our newly designed bright group spaces are specifically created for the youngest children, featuring a natural garden with abundant greenery and a sandbox that serves as the perfect place for exploration and outdoor play.
At Piratenschip, we believe in the power of language development through our Boekstart program. We organize daily reading sessions where we inspire children aged 0-4 with a love for books and reading. This not only stimulates their imagination but also naturally expands their vocabulary. We regularly visit the nearby library, ensuring children grow up in a rich reading environment.
Creativity is central to our approach. In our art studio, there's ample space for artistic expression and craft activities. Children can let their imagination run wild while working with various materials and techniques. Our experienced pedagogical staff guide the children with great attention and care throughout these creative processes.
For the youngest ones, we provide peaceful sleeping areas where children can rest when needed. Our opening hours are Monday through Friday from 07:30 to 18:30, offering parents flexibility in utilizing our services. We welcome children from 6 weeks old and provide a warm and safe environment where every child can develop optimally.Read more

Summary
The annual investigation of daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) Piratenschip in Bodegraven, conducted on 5 March 2026, shows a positive picture. The location, part of Stichting Junis Kinderopvang, accommodates a maximum of 48 children aged 0 to 4 years. In all investigated areas – pedagogical climate, staff and groups, and safety and health – the provider meets the statutory requirements. The Municipal Health Service (GGD) identified no shortcomings. The previous investigation in March 2025 also found no shortcomings. In 2024, violations were identified during the post-registration investigation, for which a recovery offer was made regarding pedagogical policy, deployment of interns/staff-to-child ratio, and first aid; these have since been remedied. The GGD advises the municipality of Bodegraven-Reeuwijk not to take enforcement measures.
