The small group size allows for even more personal attention. The quiet setting and clear structure help the children develop in the best possible way. We also work closely with the other providers of Early Childhood Education (VE) (Majest and Wolkewietje), the City of Amstelveen and with associated specialist partners in order to provide the children with appropriate support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The object is to help the children become the best version of themselves.

This is acknowledged by KinderRijk, the other providers of Early Childhood Education (Dutch: VE) in Amstelveen, the City of Amstelveen and its collaborative partners. Unfortunately, existing Preschool Early Childhood Education (VE) does not always meet this need. That is why we considered together how we could help these children better, which resulted in this new initiative. By the introduction of the VE-plus group (subsidised by the City) on Populierenlaan, these children too will receive the attention they deserve.&#8221;<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong>Social childcare<\/strong><\/strong><br>Offering VE-plus (Early Childhood Education Plus) is in keeping with our social nature. As a social childcare organisation, we invest our returns in the development of children and staff. And we are dedicated to all children. &#8216;<em>A promising future for everyone<\/em>&#8216; is appropriately our\u00a0theme of the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"666\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kinderrijk.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Populierenlaan-nieuwsbericht-2-1024x666.png\" alt=\"Opening Populierenlaan\" class=\"wp-image-15302\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kinderrijk.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Populierenlaan-nieuwsbericht-2-1024x666.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.kinderrijk.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Populierenlaan-nieuwsbericht-2-300x195.png 300w, https:\/\/www.kinderrijk.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Populierenlaan-nieuwsbericht-2-768x499.png 768w, https:\/\/www.kinderrijk.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Populierenlaan-nieuwsbericht-2.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em>Annette de Wit (Manager Childcare, on the right) surprises the team of the Populierenlaan <em>during the opening with a box filled with festivities and gifts.<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are expanding our offering and will be including VE-plus (Early Childhood Education Plus).
