Preschool Care <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Ages 2 to 4 year<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is your child\u2019s proper preparation for primary school a key aspect to you? And that your child gets to know peers from different backgrounds and enjoys social development? Then our preschool care will be right for you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We use various programmes that encourage preschoolers in all kinds of developmental areas. We link up with the goals of primary education through play and in a natural way. With these programmes each child can work and learn at the level that suits him or her. This way, your child gets to grips with its environment, has fun with peers and learns to treat others with respect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some of our preschool locations are at a Children’s Campus<\/a>. In a children’s campus, education and care are combined: day-care<\/a>, preschool and after-school care<\/a> education. Playful learning and development between 0 and 12 years in a continuous learning pathway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Different types of childcare places at preschool<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Our preschool has different types of care places: regular preschool, preschool VE (Early Childhood Education) and preschool VE-plus (Early Childhood Education Plus). The place that is right for you and your child depends on a number of factors. For example, whether you receive a childcare allowance or are entitled to a subsidy from the city<\/a>. Some children aged 2.5 to 4 receive a pre-school education referral (VE-referral or VE-plus referral) from the child healthcare centre (Dutch: consultatiebureau). Contact our Child Planning Department <\/a>to find out what options are available. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is Preschool VE & VE-plus?<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

The VE-programme (Early Childhood Education) offers extra support in language development and helps children get ready for primary school. The VE-programme is offered for a minimum of 16 hours per week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The VE-plus programme (Early Childhood Education Plus) is intended for toddlers who could use a little extra help to thrive. VE-plus combines the benefits of VE (Early Childhood Education) with smaller groups and more structure. Toddlers transfer to the VE-plus programme from VE groups or receive a referral from the child healthcare centre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Going to Preschool for the first time<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Going to preschool for the first time is quite an exciting step for your preschooler. You will all have to get used to it. At KinderRijk, we are pleased to help you make this transition as smoothly as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before starting care at KinderRijk, you will have an introductory conversation at the location. You will meet an educational staff member and discuss how things work at the location, the daily schedule, all kinds of practical matters and, of course, your preschooler’s particularities. This way, you know exactly what to expect from the care, and the educational staff members understand your and your preschooler\u2019s needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check out our locations<\/a> and find out which one suits you best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
