Our Day Care

Taking your baby to a day nursery for the first time is a big step. We understand that better than anyone. That is why we provide a loving, safe, warm and homely environment filled with positive early learning experiences. A dedicated team of well-qualified pedagogic professionals encourages children to explore, play, and develop at their own pace - building confidence in their abilities and the world around them with every new step.

The gift of language: English & bilingual groups

Many children who join us speak a language other than English at home. At Basker International Childcare, we understand the added value that a bilingual or multilingual upbringing can offer, and we ensure that we support the language development of all children in our care. Whether your child will attend a local Dutch school or experience an international education, spending time in an English-speaking environment during their developmental years can provide many advantages.

Childcare means a collaboration

Personal contact

We’re happy to make time for you as a parent. From personal chats at drop-off and pick-up to regular meetings with your child’s mentor, we value open communication and collaboration. For international families, we understand the unique challenges that come with an internationally transient lifestyle.

Collaboration with you

Parent App

You’d like some insight into your child’s experiences at Day Care. That’s why we share photos and stories through the Basker Parent App. Here, you can also take care of practical matters such as reporting absences or requesting extra days, and stay up to date with the latest news from your location.

Basker Parent App

The first day

What happens during an introduction meeting? How does the settling-in period work? What does your child need on their first day? A spare set of clothes, a labelled bottle, a cuddly toy that smells like home. We answer all your questions and ensure a smooth, happy start for both your child and you.
