About this care
Welcome to peuterspeelzaal ’t Opstapje, an independent, VVE-certified playgroup in the heart of Zandvoort. We are located inside OBS de Zeevonk at Dr Jac P Thijsseweg 24, offering a seamless transition to primary school. Everything we do revolves around learning through play in a homely, safe environment.
Our mornings start calmly between 8:15 and 8:45 with free drop-off. We then begin with a group circle, followed by focused activities such as ‘Pienter’ and creative crafts. At 10:00 we enjoy fresh fruit together and sing songs. Next it is time for movement: we do gym in our own play hall or play outside in the garden. By 12:30 the morning children go home.
The afternoon starts at 12:30 with free play. We have lunch together at 13:00, then get creative again with crafts or games. At 15:00 we end the day calmly with a story and all children go home.
We follow the VVE quality mark, focusing on language development and social skills. Our experienced pedagogical staff give every child personal attention in small, same-age groups. We use a horizontal group structure so that toddlers of the same age can play and learn together.
We are open Monday, Tuesday and Thursday from 08:20 to 15:00 and Wednesday and Friday from 08:20 to 12:30. For questions or a tour you are always welcome to drop by or call 06-13192998.Read more
