Childcare Nemo
Childcare (0-4 years)
You will find us in a unique, green spot on the edge of the High Tech Campus. We make every child feel at home in this unique, international nursery!
We are also there for you as a parent. Twice a year, we organise a cosy Eat, Meet & Greet. Great for your own social network if you like. This way, you get to know other parents and cultures with us, just like your child.
Playing in a familiar and international environment
Our large farm is spacious and bright and has an open atmosphere. This openness and diversity also exists within our team. Together, we devise themes to stimulate the senses, encourage motor skills and imagination and support language development. Our themes are close to the children's world.
Attention for each other
At Nemo, we attach great importance to playing safely in our own, familiar group. We do this with qualified pedagogical professionals. The language of communication is Dutch, but we also speak English. We pay plenty of attention to your child and to each other! It is great to see every day how children help each other and learn from each other. And if you as a parent have a question, for instance about cultural differences you notice, just ask one of the professionals in the group.

At Nemo Childcare, we use the Startblokken method. This method involves children learning through play within themes that connect to their world of experience. We base these themes on the children's environment and interests, providing a variety of activities. These can include small outings, cooking together, and on-site workshops.
The activities are also tailored to the developmental needs of the children. By conducting observations and registrations twice a year, we can better assess how to support the children further and promote their development.

In the Netherlands, families can use various forms of childcare for their children, including daycare centers, a nanny, or informal care (such as by family members). At Nemo Childcare, we only offer childcare. In the Netherlands, childcare is not a public service, so there is no guaranteed place for every child.

Unfortunately, Nemo Childcare is not officially recognized as a VE location. While we fully adhere to the required method, we do not have this recognition because we employ English-speaking staff, which allows us to offer 50% of the childcare time in another language. For a VE location, it is necessary that the location operates entirely in Dutch.
However, we can certainly offer development-stimulating activities within this international environment. We promote all areas of development just like any other VE location!
Nemo Childcare is not specifically affiliated with any one school. We collaborate with all schools in our area through a smooth transition process. With parental consent, we can facilitate a handover to the primary school of your choice.
Additionally, we like to work with schools by visiting them to inform you as parents about their teaching methods. We also hold several information evenings on this topic.
We have a diverse team of professionals working at Nemo Childcare. We have many Dutch-speaking professionals, but we also have professionals who speak only English with the children.
Legally, we are allowed to offer up to 50% of the childcare time in German, English, or French. At Nemo, you currently only see English-speaking staff. This allows children to easily and safely become familiar with the English language.
At our location, we work with Healthy Childcare. This means that we pay attention to our food, sun protection, physical activity, and all other aspects.
Our nutrition policy focuses on making conscious choices during mealtimes. We provide bread-based meals to help children get accustomed to the Dutch eating culture in primary schools. Additionally, we organize cooking activities within our themes, where children are involved in meal preparation.
Other components of our Healthy Childcare include the ‘heat protocol and sun protection’, safe sleeping policies, hygiene rules, and other policy documents.
We never speak English more than 50% of the time. In this context, French, German, and English can be spoken, but the staff always use English. Staff members are required to choose a language to work in, either English or Dutch. Communication with parents can be in both languages, but for the children, a consistent language approach is maintained.
