Summary
Preschool De Kraal in Amsterdam-Oost, part of Stichting Dynamo Voorscholen, was inspected on 18 March 2026. The preschool provides early childhood education to 32 children (ages 2-4) in two groups using the Puk & Ko programme. All statutory quality requirements are met. The team of 6 staff members offers a warm pedagogical climate with attention to emotional safety and language development. However, group Kraal 2 is busy due to maximum occupancy and multiple children requiring extra care, which poses a challenge for individual attention. The books in both groups are not attractively presented and some are damaged; this was discussed with the team manager and will be addressed. No recovery offer was made.
Reviews
Ik ben heel tevreden over deze creche en de lieve en betrokken leidsters. Er worden altijd leuke activiteiten gedaan en de buitenruimte is echt geweld...
Heel veilige opvang. Voel je thuis, niet echt in een opvang. Mijn dochter vindt er ook gezellig. Aanrader!
