About this care
Peutergroep Sterrenpad is one of the three toddler groups operated by Van Harte childcare in Venlo. We are located on the ground floor of primary school Sterrenpad ’t Ven, right in the heart of the ’t Ven neighbourhood. Here we provide professional toddler care for children aged 2 to 4 years in a small-scale, familiar setting. Our group has room for a maximum of 16 toddlers, ensuring every child receives the attention they deserve.
We follow the VVE curriculum Startblokken. These recognised pre-school education programmes stimulate your child’s language and cognitive development in a playful way. Our pedagogical staff closely monitor each toddler’s development and tailor activities to the child’s needs. In this way we prepare your child for primary school through play.
The toddler group is open 52 weeks a year, except for official public holidays. We offer care on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday from 8:30 am to 12:30 pm. During these morning sessions the children explore themes such as seasons, animals, traffic and emotions. We sing together, read aloud, do crafts and play both indoors and outdoors on the secure school playground.
Parents appreciate the personal approach and open communication. You will regularly receive photos and short reports via our parent app, allowing you to share in your child’s experiences. Together with you, we form a trusted team around your toddler.Read more
