How we make a difference

A Place Where Families Meet

At Daisy’s Daycare, we believe that childcare is about much more than simply caring for children. We value creating a place where not only children, but also parents feel at home and become part of a warm and welcoming community. That is why we regularly organise cosy and informal events where parents can meet one another, share experiences, and get to know each other better.

 

Through these moments, we see beautiful friendships begin to grow, and parents often find recognition, support, and understanding in one another.

Flexibility

At Daisy’s Daycare, we are open from 7:30 to 18:30 and offer flexible drop-off and pick-up times. This allows parents to plan their day in a way that best suits their own schedule.

​

You are welcome to bring or pick up your child throughout the day. We kindly ask that you let us know if your child will be dropped off after 10:00 or picked up before 16:30, so we can take this into account in our daily rhythm.

The Power of Small Groups

At Daisy’s Daycare, we believe that real attention starts with keeping groups small and personal. Small groups allow us to create a calm, safe, and familiar environment where every child has the space to develop at their own pace.

​

This approach gives us the time and attention to truly see each child as an individual. It also helps us build strong, trusting relationships with parents and creates a warm, home-like atmosphere where everyone feels seen, valued, and welcome.

Development-focused care

At Daisy’s Daycare, we offer activities that provide structure while gently encouraging each child’s development at their own pace. We carefully choose activities that match what a child can already do, while also inviting them to take on new challenges in a natural and supportive way.

​

In this way, children are given the space to grow with confidence, curiosity, and joy. Always in their own time and in a way that suits their individual development.

Healthy food, safety and hygiene

At Daisy’s Daycare, we place great importance on health, safety, and hygiene. Our spaces are cleaned daily according to strict guidelines, and we work with a dedicated team to ensure a safe, clean, and well-cared-for environment for all children.

​

Children are offered varied, healthy meals at set times, based on the guidelines of the Dutch Nutrition Centre and prepared with as many organic ingredients as possible. Shared mealtimes are a calm and positive part of the day, where children can enjoy food together in a relaxed atmosphere, without pressure, rewards, or expectations.

Daily time outdoors

At Daisy’s Daycare, we believe children learn and grow best when they are given the space to explore the world around them. Being outside, moving their bodies, and connecting with nature are an essential part of our daily rhythm.

Whether it’s a walk through Westerpark, playing in our natural garden, or simply going on little adventures together, we make sure children have the chance to enjoy fresh air every day and learn through play in a natural and meaningful way.

Meet Daisy's Daycare

At Daisy’s Daycare, we believe that the first years of a child’s life are incredibly valuable. During these early years, the foundation is formed for how a child experiences, discovers, and understands the world around them. With this belief at the heart of everything we do, we have created a place where care, calmness, and meaningful experiences come together.

​

Daisy’s Daycare is a small-scale daycare centre in Amsterdam for children aged 0 to 4 years, where every child is truly seen and heard. We provide a warm and safe environment in which young children can develop at their own pace. By working with small groups, we are able to offer personal attention and an approach tailored to the unique needs of each child throughout every stage of their development.

​

Our vision is based on learning through experience. We encourage children to explore, play, and wonder. Both within the world around them and within themselves. Creativity, sensory experiences, and calmness are important pillars within our daily rhythm.

We also place great value on building a strong and positive relationship with parents. Together, we create a trusted environment where children feel safe, supported, and able to thrive.

​

At Daisy’s Daycare, childcare is about more than simply providing care. It is about creating a place where children feel at home, and where their development is nurtured with love, attention, and intention every single day.

What are we looking forward to?

My child was a difficult sleeper, and I felt quite worried about starting daycare because of it. The team at Daisy’s supported us so well that our little one has actually become a much better sleeper over time.

The personal attention and care are truly wonderful. It really feels like a warm and loving home. Every day, I leave my child there with complete peace of mind.

We are so happy we made this choice!

A joyful daily rhythm at Daisy’s

IMG_0935.jpeg

At Daisy’s Daycare, we believe that a clear and predictable daily rhythm makes a big difference for children. It provides them with a sense of calm and security, two essential foundations for developing at their own pace. When children know what to expect throughout the day, they feel more confident, become more independent, and their self-confidence grows.

​

A day at Daisy’s Daycare is like a story that unfolds again each day. Full of movement, discovery, play, and peaceful moments. A place where children feel seen, heard, and safe, where they are encouraged to try new things and where they have fun while learning. Here they build confidence, independence, and social skills, growing a little more into who they are every single day.

Meet Daisy's Daycare

In a world where childcare often revolves around efficiency and large groups, we wanted to create something different, something more personal. No large groups or impersonal care, but peace and quiet.

Attention and space to blossom, exactly as every child deserves.

 

That's why we're proud to launch Daisy's Daycare: a place where children can develop through play in a safe and loving environment. Located in the heart of Amsterdam West, we're here to support parents with professional care for their children.
