About this care
AI
Welcome to daycare De Vendelier, located at Moerdonksvoort 1 in the heart of Helmond-Brandevoort. As part of Spring Kinderopvang, we provide a warm and safe environment where children aged 0 to 4 years can develop optimally. Our location is specially designed for young children and offers a homely atmosphere in which your child will quickly feel at home.
At De Vendelier we work with different age groups. We have a baby group for the youngest, two toddler groups for toddlers, and a special three-plus group for the oldest children. This structure ensures that we can perfectly tailor activities and care to your child's developmental stage. Our pedagogical staff are qualified and guarantee professional and loving care.
We believe it's important that children have space to play and discover. Therefore, we offer daily challenging activities that connect with young children's world of experience. Think of crafts, reading aloud, singing and outdoor play in our safe and challenging garden. We work from the conviction that children learn most by doing and experiencing.
For the youngest we provide diapers and wipes, and you can use our bottle feeding. For older children we provide a healthy snack and bread meal. We take allergies and dietary requirements into account. Each child has their own bed and sleeping bag, contributing to a familiar feeling.
Parents stay informed of all developments through our app. We believe good communication with parents is essential for the child's well-being. Together we ensure your child feels safe, happy and challenged with us.Read more
