About this care
Welcome to De Rode Ridder, our daycare center located at Sportlaan 49 in De Lier. We are part of De Lange Keizer Childcare and provide care for up to 59 children aged 0 to 4 years. Our team is ready every weekday from 07:30 to 18:00 to provide the youngest children with a safe and stimulating environment.
At De Rode Ridder, we believe in the importance of sensory development. We have special toys and materials that allow children to train their senses. For the youngest ones, we offer baby massage and baby gym, activities that are not only relaxing but also contribute to motor development. We also regularly make time for craft activities, where children can express their creativity and practice fine motor skills.
Music plays an important role in our daily routine. The children enjoy music lessons where they can listen, sing along and move to the rhythm of the music. These activities contribute to the children's language development and sense of rhythm.
Our location is equipped with various spaces where children can play, sleep and withdraw. We have our own sleeping area where children can rest peacefully and an outdoor playground where they can romp to their heart's content. The safety and well-being of each child is central to us.
As a daycare center, we understand that the transition from home to daycare is a big step for both child and parent. We therefore take the time to get to know each child personally and to connect with the home situation. Our childcare professionals are specialized in guiding babies and toddlers and closely monitor the development of each child.
We look forward to welcoming your child at De Rode Ridder, where we work together with you on a pleasant and safe upbringing in the first years of life.Read more

Summary
Kinderdagverblijf Rode Ridder in De Lier was inspected unannounced on 24 April 2025 by GGD Haaglanden (Municipal Health Service). The daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) accommodates 59 children aged 0–4 in five groups and has two outdoor play areas and a well-kept pig. The inspection assessed the pedagogical climate, staff qualifications and registration. The pedagogical practice earned praise: staff are sensitive, offer varied activities and achieve the four core pedagogical objectives. All staff hold the correct diplomas, VOGs (Certificates of Good Conduct) and are properly registered. There was one violation: the pedagogical policy plan lacked information about the care of children from location Het Paarse Schaap at the beginning and end of the day. The organisation made use of a recovery offer (herstelaanbod) and submitted a supplementary plan within the deadline. The GGD therefore advises the municipality of Westland to take no enforcement action.
