About this care
Welcome to De Rakkertjes in Oeffelt! We are a warm and homely daycare center located at Kerkstraat-zuid 24a, offering care for children from 0 to 3 years old. With 53 childcare places spread across 4 groups, we provide a safe and familiar environment where every child feels at home.
At De Rakkertjes, we work with fixed, small-scale groups, taking into account the age and development of each child. We use a horizontal group structure, where children of approximately the same age play, sleep, and eat together. This creates calm, recognition, and a predictable daily rhythm.
Our qualified childcare staff are ready every day to lovingly guide the children. We work with weekly themes that connect to the children's world of experience. This allows us to offer a varied range of play and activities, tailored to the age and interests of each child. Even our babies participate in these themes, at their own pace and level.
We believe it is important that children feel safe and secure. That is why we offer not only childcare, but also care, nutrition, and pedagogical guidance. We work closely with parents and guarantee openness and mutual trust. Our daycare center complements parenting at home, in an atmosphere of respect and involvement.
In addition, we offer inclusive childcare. This means that we can also provide a place for children with specific care needs, sometimes even beyond their third year. We assess each situation individually and tailor our care accordingly.
At De Rakkertjes, it's all about warmth, structure, and development. We give children the space to grow in their own way, with attention to who they are and what they need.Read more

Summary
Daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) De Rakkertjes in Oeffelt was inspected on 12 March 2025. The pedagogical climate, early childhood education, and information provision to parents more than adequately meet the requirements. The location offers a safe and stimulating programme with sufficiently qualified staff members. Two violations were identified: teachers from the adjacent primary school are missing from the mandatory persons register and do not hold a Certificate of Conduct (Verklaring Omtrent Gedrag/VOG), and the safety and health policy was incomplete. Following a recovery offer, the policy has been amended and approved, but the missing registration of the school teachers was not rectified in time. The Municipal Health Service (GGD) advises the municipality to proceed with enforcement.
