About this care
Welcome to Zeppelin, our daycare center located at Podium 25 in Middelburg. We are part of Kinderopvang Walcheren and provide care for children aged 0 to 4 years. Our location is strategically situated on the outskirts of Middelburg, along the A58, ensuring easy accessibility and ample parking.
Our daycare center features four spacious rooms where children have the space to play and discover. A unique feature of our location is the window in one of the walls between the rooms, allowing children to see each other and interact. This not only stimulates social development but also creates an open and connected atmosphere within our groups.
We believe in the importance of a safe and familiar environment for the youngest children. Our pedagogical staff are ready to give each child the attention and care they deserve. We work with horizontal groups, placing children of similar ages together. This allows us to tailor activities and care to the specific needs of each age stage.
At Zeppelin, we find it important that children have the space to develop at their own pace. We provide a stimulating environment where play and discovery are central. Our location is designed with attention to detail and safety, so parents can bring their child to us with peace of mind.
We warmly invite you to come and take a look at our location. A personal tour gives you the opportunity to get acquainted with our approach and experience the atmosphere. Together, we are happy to look at the possibilities for your child.Read more

Summary
Daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) Zeppelin in Middelburg, part of Stichting Kinderopvang Walcheren, was subject to an unannounced follow-up investigation by the Municipal Health Service (GGD) Zeeland on 7 September 2026. This investigation focused on the conditions that were not met during the annual investigation in January 2026. The inspection showed that the location now complies with all assessed quality requirements in the domains of general conditions, pedagogical climate, and staff and groups. Previous shortcomings concerned the pedagogical policy and the stability of care (fixed core groups). The provider has adjusted the process: parents now give prior written consent for care in a second core group. The GGD advises the municipality of Middelburg not to take enforcement measures.
