About work

We believe that every child deserves a bright start. At our location Van Ostadestraat in De Pijp Daycare, (Early) Childcare, and Out-of-School Care come together under one roof. In an atmospheric school building, we offer children a familiar environment in which they can grow up, play, and learn.

For our (Early) Pre- and Early Childhood Education (ECE) group, we are looking for an enthusiastic pedagogical professional/educational worker* who wants to contribute to the development of young children together with us.

Together we make the difference
In our Early Childhood Education (ECE) group, we work with an ECE program in which we playfully challenge children to develop. We offer a safe, stimulating environment with attention to every child and a clear structure. Together, we ensure a pleasant and educational day.

We work closely with parents so that children make a familiar and smooth transition to their next step.

The location
Our location is in a school building in the middle of De Pijp, with a baby group, a toddler group, and after-school care upstairs. Compact, well-organized, and great cooperation between the groups.

And the neighborhood makes it complete: Van Woustraat and Albert Cuyp are within walking distance. During your break, you can easily stroll past the market, grab a coffee, or enjoy one of Amsterdam's coziest neighborhoods. Easily accessible by tram, bus, and bicycle.

Working on location Van Ostadestraat
We form a committed and professional team where we share knowledge, support each other, and continue to develop together. In this way, we build a place every day where both children and colleagues feel at home.

About De Kleine Wereld

At Childcare De Kleine Wereld No two days are the same, and that is exactly what makes it so much fun. We help children grow, but we grow just as fast with them. Through our Development House, academy days, and team outings, we invest in each other. Because job satisfaction starts with a team that takes good care of one another.

De Kleine Wereld is part of Samenwerkende Kinderopvang, together with SamSam and Eigen & Wijzer.
