About this care
Welcome to VVE El Kadisia, our preschool childcare location at Piet Mondriaanplein 2 in Amsterdam Nieuw-West. As part of Impuls Kinderopvang, we provide a safe and stimulating environment for children from 2 years old during their toddler phase. Our location has 46 childcare places and is officially registered in the National Register under number 612937069.
At VVE El Kadisia, we follow the VVE program (Preschool and Early Education) of Amsterdam. This means we focus specifically on your child's language and cognitive development. Our childcare staff are specially trained to stimulate toddler development and to identify and address any developmental delays at an early stage. We work in horizontal groups, where toddlers of similar ages play and learn together.
Our location is part of the Islamic primary school El Kadisia, offering a unique combination of childcare and education within an Islamic context. We communicate with children in both Dutch and Arabic, stimulating language development in both languages. Half-day care is available, where children can attend either morning or afternoon sessions.
We work closely with the primary school, ensuring a smooth transition from preschool care to primary education. Our focus is entirely on toddler development for children aged 2 to 4 years, using recognized VVE methods and materials that connect with young children's experiences.Read more
