About this care
Welcome to Villa de Hoge Hoed daycare, located on the vibrant Leerpark in Dordrecht. We are the place where children aged 0 to 4 embark on a journey of discovery in a healthy, safe and opportunity-rich environment. Our daycare is part of Gro-up childcare and opened its doors in December at Leerparkpromenade 318. The location is designed with characteristic Dordrecht facades and features a natural garden where children can play and explore.
At Villa de Hoge Hoed we work with three horizontal groups: the Orange Hats, Purple Hats and Pink Hats. Each group has 3 to 4 permanent pedagogical staff members who ensure a familiar and safe environment. We offer development-oriented activities including toddler gym, reading in our library corner, creative activities and nature experiences in our own garden. We also regularly organize excursions in the immediate area.
Our opening hours are Monday to Friday from 7:30 AM to 6:30 PM. For parents who need childcare between 7:00-7:30 AM, this is possible through an additional agreement. We offer flexible childcare with both full days and half-day sessions available. Everything related to childcare can be easily arranged through our parent app, where you also receive photos and updates about your child's development.
We value parental involvement highly. In addition to our parent committee, we regularly organize parent meetings and keep parents informed through newsletters. Together we create a safe environment where children can grow and develop into independent individuals.Read more
