Stichting Kinderopvang Haarlemmermeer: Loving and trustworthy care for your child

Stichting Kinderopvang Haarlemmermeer ("Haarlemmermeer Child Care," or SKH) has been offering loving care for children from ages 0 to 13 for 50 years. The most important thing for your child is the feeling of a second home at SKH. Also, having a lot of fun is one of their top priorities.

Ensure your child's development at SKH!

At SKH you will find cosily furnished areas, with fun play areas filled with challenging toys where children play together and learn from each other.

For the little ones

The first years of life are crucial for the development of your child. That is why SKH offers Baby-Sensi® groups for the youngest children. These are specially designed to stimulate your baby at their own level and to allow them to grow at their own pace.

Your baby’s daily routine

SKH follow your baby's own day-to-day routines as much as possible. This means plenty of rest and space to take a nap when your baby needs it. The fun activities also help to stimulate your baby's senses, motor skills, language and social-emotional development.

Playing and growing together

The daycare centre is a great place for your child to play with other children. Children learn a lot from each other through playing together. Older children learn to be considerate of the younger kids and babies as well as learn to help the assistants look after the others. In turn, the younger children learn from the language and speech development of the older children and unconsciously adopt their behaviour.

Outdoors and exercising

Exercising is an important part of the day-to-day routine in the care groups at SKH. For example, every morning and every afternoon the children play outside for at least half an hour. Even when the weather isn’t great, the groups still go outside to get some fresh air. The outdoor areas are designed responsibly and open to children of all ages to stimulate learning and have fun. From the age of two, the children participate in weekly sports with SKH’s sports coaches.

Have fun at the after-school care centre

Your child (4 to 13 years) is welcome at the after-school care centre (buitenschoolse opvang or BSO in Dutch) before and after school starts. You can arrange for your children to be picked up from almost all elementary schools in Haarlemmermeer.

Continue your child's development at the after-school care centre

The BSO is a nice place to relax and a great place to be with peers. That is why your child may organise their time at SKH the way they want to: quietly reading a book, playing outside with friends or taking part in the challenging activities the pedagogical employees have organised. This makes the BSO a place for your child to have fun and discover their interests and talents.
