About this care
Welcome to IKC de Kikker II, our small-scale daycare centre in the heart of Amsterdam Nieuw-West. We provide care for up to 13 children aged 2 to 4 years in a homely and safe environment. As part of Stichting Impuls, we operate according to national quality standards and have been registered in the National Childcare Register since 26 October 2012.
At IKC de Kikker II, preschool education is central. We work with the Preschool and Early Education (VVE) programme Piramide, which is specifically tailored to the developmental stage of toddlers. Through thematic work, we stimulate your child's language development, numeracy skills and social skills. Our professional pedagogical staff offer challenging activities such as reading, drawing, singing and movement, both indoors and outdoors.
We believe it is important that parents remain involved in their child's development. Through the Parent App, you receive weekly photos and updates about your child's experiences, so you can also enjoy the beautiful moments at home. Our rates are transparent and include nappies, healthy snacks and drinks.
IKC de Kikker II is specially designed for curious toddlers who want to develop through play. In our small groups, your child receives all the attention and guidance needed to confidently start primary school.Read more
GGD Inspection
Improvements needed
Inspection date: June 23, 2025
Strengths
- Emotionally safe and structured environment with consistent routines
- Staff effectively stimulate language and social skills

- Sufficient hours of early childhood education and presence of certified ECE staff

Summary
IKC de Kikker II is a small preschool care location in Amsterdam with 12 places, offering early childhood education (ECE) 4 half-days per week according to the Pyramid VVE method. During the inspection visit on 23 June 2025, it was found that the location meets all statutory quality requirements. The staff provide an emotionally safe environment, work with consistent routines, and stimulate children's social and language development. Cooperation with primary school de Globe is going well. Due to the unexpected absence of a permanent staff member, there was some delay in ECE activities, but this is being addressed with support from an ECE coach. The pedagogical policy document still contains outdated information (old name and number of groups), which needs to be updated.
