Kindergarden Stadshoeve is a truly special location at the heart of the thriving Stadshoeve neighbourhood. This unique site is our second branch in Zwolle, designed entirely with childcare in mind.
Outdoors, children can experience ultimate freedom and independence in our expansive garden, which surrounds the entire facility. Each group has its own outdoor space, allowing even the youngest ones to enjoy the fresh air safely.
Situated in a child-friendly neighbourhood featuring a petting farm, this location ensures that children enjoy a varied and enriching learning experience. Additionally, we share a communal car park where parking is completely free. Stadshoeve is a vibrant and emerging neighbourhood, and our location is at the center of this lively area. Interestingly, the site was built on the remains of the outer walls of Werkeren Castle, adding a tangible sense of history to our childcare setting.

Explore the unique childcare at Kindergarden Stadshoeve
-
Studio
We often divide the infant and toddler groups into smaller groups, so we can really focus on a specific activity. Take our studio for instance, where we offer other craft materials than in the general group, such as magic sand.
-
Baby garden
Babies can enjoy the fresh air in complete safety in their own sheltered baby garden area. And the older children can play hide-and-seek to their heart’s content in the willow tunnel or in the sandpit, or race around on small bicycles or carts.
-
Dancing & exercise
Exercise is important. That’s why our dancing instructor gives our infants and toddlers weekly dancing lessons. The children really love imitating movements while at the same time discovering what their bodies can do.
-
Play and relaxation corners
Our baby group(s) have been designed to ensure that every child in the 0 to 2 age range can play and relax in peace and quiet. They can choose from our black and white corner, reading corner, the kitchen unit, the big play mat, or our mirror with tactile tiles.
On our childcare center, we have horizontal groups
Every child lives in a world where everything impresses – and everything has an impact. That is why we work with horizontal groups at our childcare locations.

Frequently asked questions about our childcare
To increase the chances of securing a spot, we recommend enrolling your child as soon as possible at our childcare. We take your preferences into account during our planning and strive to fulfill your wishes to the best of our ability.
That depends on various factors including preferred days, how many days you need, and how flexible you are. For example, the likelihood of a placement becoming available for one day is greater than three or four days becoming available in one go. The more flexible you are as a parent, the greater the likelihood that we will be able to offer you a place.
If you’re seeking a place quickly, we’d be happy to look at the options available in our schedule. At the busier locations, we often work approximately four months ahead, so it can take some time before you hear from us. If there’s a waiting list, we rely on cancellations/schedule changes for new places to become available.
Are you pregnant and looking for a place in the longer term? We have horizontal groups at Kindergarden and this affects how far ahead we can plan. Horizontal means that children move on to the next group at a certain time. As we take a child’s development and age and the days that a child spends at the daycare center into account, we plan four to six months ahead, depending on how busy the center is. A schedule can also change a lot. Factors that influence this include registration of siblings (they are given priority), schedule changes for children who already have a placement (switching days or increasing the number of days), and cancellations.
