Practical information | Villa Bambini

Opening hours

We'r eopened daily from 07.45 tot 18.30 hrs. The caretakers appreciate all the children being present at 09.30 hrs so we can all start our morning at the table together. Pick up time is from 16.30 hrs onward. Of course you can be there earlier, but please let us know in advance because of possible walks outside, naps etc.

Exchanging days

Switching is no problem for us, you can do it limitless. The rules are simple: the days you would like to exchange must be two weeks apart at most and must be requested at least two workingdays before. Of course we need to have availability and suffucient caretakers. You can easily request exchanging days through the parent portal.

Requesting extra days

It's possible to request extra half or full days. If we have availability and there are sufficient caretakers we will always allow for extra time. Extra days will be billed on the next invoice. Requests can be made through the parent portal but if you need to know asap you can always ask the caretakers on your group.

Closing days

Villa Bambini is opened almost the entire year. Apart from the national holidays we are closed on the day after ascention day, Good Friday and the days between christams and New Year's Eve. These days have already been deducted from the amount of daycare days per year and are therefor excluded from the price per month.

Is your child sick?

Children get sick sometimes. But when can you and can't you bring your child to the daycare? If you're in doubt you can always confer with our caretakers or you can read the chapter on illnesses in our pedagogical policy.

Mon-wed-thu hot lunch

Three days a week a hot lunch is served to the children, prepared by Moekes Maaltijd. The meals are 100% fresh and 95% organic. On request they serve vegatarian meals and of course we take allergies into account. Every week the new menu's are posted in the hall. On tuesdays and fridays we eat sandwiches.

Parent commission

Villa Bambini's parent commission consists of 3 members and gets together 3 times a year. They have an advisory function and the members are available for questions and suggestions from parents. They can be reached at: ocvillabambini@gmail.com.

Cancellation

Of course we don't like seeing our children and parents go, but sometimes it just must be. Cancelling can be done by email. The cancellation period is one month and goes into effect on the first day of the next month.
