About Skippybol kinder children's center

Skippybol children's center with nursery and after-school care is located between monumental buildings at 11A Kennemerstraatweg. For parents, the best way to reach the building is through a gate on Nieuwlandersingel, which gives access to a child-safe courtyard. At Skippybol children's center you will find both day care for 0-4 year olds and after-school care for children from 4 to 12 years old. The adjacent outdoor area is located in a quiet area next to a characteristic city garden, car-free and child-friendly. The children who use the BSO at Skippybol share the outdoor play area with obs De Kennermerpoort. There is also space for parking when dropping off and picking up the children. Skippybol has 14 private parking spaces in the courtyard.

Skippybol children's center offers

What makes Skippybol children's center so unique?

Skippybol strives to offer the children a familiar environment. A permanent team of pedagogical employees offers the children safety and security and stimulates the children in their development. At fixed times in the day there are activities such as crafts, playing outside, drinking, eating fruit or bread, sleeping, reading and so on. Themes are regularly offered.

A good layout and layout of the location plays an important role in obtaining the right educational climate within the accommodation. To achieve this, the building has undergone a thorough adjustment. It is a modern building integrated in classic stately mansions with a beautiful city garden. In short, a unique accommodation in a particularly child-safe location in the middle of the city centre.

Daycare
In addition to providing care for the children, contact with the parents also plays an important role. In the baby groups, the pedagogical staff write in a notebook how the day went. The daily report of the toddler groups shows what the children did and experienced that day. Of course there is always room for personal contact. We think it is important that parents can leave their child with the pedagogical staff with a good feeling. In the week before the placement, 'getting used' moments can be agreed if there is a need for this.

In addition to the daily contacts, you will have an evaluation interview with the pedagogical employee within the first six months, in which it will be discussed how your child is doing and whether everything is going satisfactorily. In addition, there is a meeting at least once a year, which is partly based on the completed observation lists.

School care
Rollebol children's centers also offer out-of-school care in collaboration with numerous primary schools. Skippybol's out-of-school care is for children from 4 to 12 years old who attend a primary school in the municipality of Alkmaar and in particular Obs De Kennemerpoort. Skippybol offers before and after school care for at least 1 to 5 half days per week. Childcare during timetable-free days is included.

Additional services
At Skippybol children's center each group has its own kitchen. Children who use the extended care can enjoy a fresh hot meal.

Groups

Skippybol has three cozy and cozy baby groups for children from 0 to 2 years. In addition, there are four vertical groups for children aged 1,5 to 4. A maximum of sixteen children are cared for in these vertical groups. The BSO consists of two groups for a maximum of 33 children.

The Baby Groups

To give babies the necessary rest, Skippybol has three separate baby groups. There is always a permanent group leader who is known to your child. In this way, a good relationship of trust with your child can be built and maintained. During the intake interview, the rhythm of your child will be discussed with you as parents/carers, so that the teachers can keep to the same schedule as at home as much as possible. When the baby can participate in a fixed rhythm, this group of children eats, drinks and sleeps at set times. When the children have reached an age of about 24 months, they move on to the vertical group. For this we let your child practice a few times, under the supervision of the permanent pedagogical employee.

From Toddler to 3+

The four toddler and three+ groups, with a maximum of 16 children per group, have a vertical layout. This means that children aged 1,5-4 are placed in a mixed group, this division offers many advantages. In this way, your child does not have to change groups during the period at the nursery and young and 'old' can learn from each other.

All play, group and sleeping areas are optimally designed for the age of the children and offer learning materials, toys and activities that suit every developmental stage between 0 and 4 years. The children are encouraged to develop further. Just as in the baby groups, predictability, continuity and positive incentives are central in the toddler groups. We would rather teach children to choose for themselves than to offer them everything.

School care

From the age of 4 you can use the after-school care at Skippybol BSO. We offer before-school, after-school and after-school care at out-of-school care. Activities are offered at the BSO after the table moment. To make these activities as challenging as possible, we offer theme-oriented activities in the age categories 4+, 6+ and 8+. We want to give children the opportunity to grow with a challenging day program, personal attention and variety in activities.

We want to stimulate the broad development of the child with the various themes. Sports and games are a daily recurring theme, because we consider exercise an important aspect within the development of the child. That is why this part will be part of the BSO program on a daily basis. The fifth theme "Education & homework guidance" can be used at the request of parents.

Your child is central

The child with its personality and needs is central. Children are allowed to be who they are and they can further explore their world in a familiar environment. The children are encouraged to develop further. Just as in the baby groups, predictability, continuity and positive incentives are central in the toddler groups. We would rather teach children to choose for themselves than to offer them everything. Here too, we ensure that children get used to it quickly through practice and extra attention during the first times. Meetings while playing outside also ensure that all children and pedagogical staff know each other.

The offer at Skippybol includes a total package that meets the wishes and requirements that parents set for childcare. This is expressed in more attention to atmosphere and security, pedagogical approach and special attention to development and education. But there is also plenty of attention for playing and having fun. Skippybol Children's Center offers flexible services in addition to care on fixed and scheduled day parts. We offer pre-school education (VVE) for every child as standard. With a recognized program, children are prepared step by step for primary school. Skills are learned in a playful way through theme-oriented activities.

Discovering play with VVE preschool education

We offer pre-school education (VVE) at all locations with day care, such as children's center Rollebol, children's center Olke Bolke and children's center Skippybol. This also applies to the locations where toddler care is offered, such as Rollebol, Knikkebol, Holderdebolder, Stoombol and Stuiterbol. This is fun and educational for your child and is a good preparation for primary school. Rollebol children's centers believes it is important to offer children optimal development opportunities.

The VVE program stimulates your child's development in a playful way. The development of the language is given attention, but all other areas of development are also discussed. Not only the activities that the pedagogical employees offer, but also the play material and the layout of our accommodation play a role in this.

By paying extra attention to development, we prepare your child well for primary school and increase the chance of a smooth transition to education. Before your child starts primary school, the pedagogical employee makes a transfer. In the parent interview you will be offered this transfer to read for yourself. This will be provided to the primary school after your consent.

For school

The pre-school is intended for children from 2,5 years to 4 years. At Rollebol children's centers certified pre-school is provided at all nurseries and toddler care. All our pedagogical employees have undergone training and are VVE certified.

The pedagogical staff for day care and toddler care are trained and familiar with the Uk & Puk method, which is used in pre-school. The method with which we work is recognized. It is an integral program, aimed at several development areas (language development and budding literacy; thinking development and budding math; motor and creative development; personal and social-emotional development). The toddler tracking system records your child's progress. When your child turns 4, this information will be transferred to the primary school after obtaining your consent.

You will find that your child comes home with stories about the themes and sings songs. Our pedagogical staff will involve you in your child's development and inform you about themes and activities. This way you can respond to any questions your child may have or tell us something about a theme at home. For more information about VVE, see Kindergarten Alkmaar from Rollebol children's centers.
