Location details

Espira Daycare Center Heiligenbergerweg

Espira Daycare Center Heiligenbergerweg is located in the green neighborhood of Randenbroek in Amersfoort, directly opposite Park Randenbroek. Our green daycare center offers plenty of space for children aged 0-4 to explore, play, and be outdoors. Within walking distance, you will find playgrounds and De Vosheuvel children's city farm—perfect for outings. 

At our daycare center, we have two vertical groups: the Foxes (upstairs) and the Owls (downstairs). The Owls have direct access to an adjacent bedroom. The Foxes have their own kitchenette for imaginative play. In the hall, there is an extra play area for activities in small groups. 

Our spacious outdoor area offers everything: a baby garden, large sandpit, outdoor kitchen, a water course, and cozy picnic tables.

A day at the daycare centre

This is what a day at looks Espira ‘Heiligenbergerweg’ like

Heiligenbergerweg
Good morning & bring

Good morning! Just a quick hug for mom or dad and a chat. Then we'll start the day together. 

Heiligenbergerweg
Day start in the circle

The group starts together in a circle. We go over what the day will bring, sing a song, or read a book—a cheerful start to the day. 

Heiligenbergerweg
Fruit moment

Then your child eats fresh fruit at the table—a pleasant moment to laugh, talk, and enjoy each other's company. Some babies take a nap after this. 

Heiligenbergerweg
Buitenspelen en ontdekken

In the morning, the children spend as much time as possible outside. They ride their bikes, build sandcastles, look for leaves, or discover all there is to see. Being outside is part of every day at Espira—with plenty of room for free play and their own discoveries.

Heiligenbergerweg
Lunch

Around noon, the children eat a sandwich lunch and drink water or milk. It is a quiet and pleasant moment where they pay attention to each other. 

Heiligenbergerweg
Rest period / sleep

After lunch, it's time to rest. Some children sleep, others listen to a story or look at a book. No obligations, just relaxation. 

Heiligenbergerweg
Drink and healthy snack break (after rest)

When the children wake up, they eat fresh vegetable snacks and have something to drink together. This way, the afternoon starts quietly, with renewed energy. 

Heiligenbergerweg
Afternoon activities

In the afternoon, there is time for a group activity—such as making music, building, or crafting—and for free play. Your child plays alone or with others, often outdoors. This way, play naturally turns into learning. 

Heiligenbergerweg
Drink and healthy snack break (afternoon)

After all the playing and fun, we have a drink together and eat a healthy snack. 

Heiligenbergerweg
Rest period and closing together

At the end of the afternoon, we take a break and sit down together at the table to enjoyably conclude the day. After that, we can play freely for a while, either outside or inside, or quietly read a book together. 

Heiligenbergerweg
Pick up

After a brief, warm handover, it's time to go home again—with a smile and a head full of stories.

How children grow at Espira

Playing outside and exploring

At Espira, children can be themselves in a safe and loving environment. We go outside every day—rain or shine—because nature is our second home, where children can discover the world with all their senses. We lay a solid foundation with healthy food, plenty of exercise, and sufficient rest. Our educational professionals see learning opportunities in everything and give children the confidence to fall, get up, and try again. This helps children grow up with self-confidence, a sense of responsibility, and a love for the world around them.
