What do parents think about this location?

“My two older children attend the "holiday" camps at Big Ben which is a daycamp put on by the daycare for older kids who are out of school for fall break or summer break, etc. My children love going to Big Ben camp. The programming is always spot on, they take the kids to playgrounds, the beach, museums, and do programming at the main building as well. My kids have made amazing friendships and the teachers/staff are the best. I would highly recommend Big Ben to anyone who needs childcare in Wassenaar.”

“Big Ben kids is a really great place for kids!!! My daughter loves going there,she turns to English so fast, after being there only 2 times per week, even our family is not English speaking. She loves kindergarten and everyday learning something new. She is taking lots of ideas from teachers and bringing them home,continue doing some activities with pleasure. They always playing outside in different weather, which I find very nice , they have enough fresh air and learning also about snow, water, sun etc. It's amazing how many different things they are making on a playground, playing and learning at the same time!!! And also is a very safe place!!! I am very thankful for all people who working there with children!!!!”

“Big Ben Kids Wassenaar was such a great place for our son. We have moved around a lot the past year and Big Ben gave him a warm and welcoming environment to develop in. He loved his childminders who were very professional and friendly. The place itself is clean, safe and well-kept - seems brand new! Plus the meals were all very healthy. Nothing bad to say really.. We were very sad to leave!”

“Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for childcare for their child. We moved to the Netherlands from the UK and enrolled our daughter at Big Ben. The nursery was so similar to what she was used to in the UK and she loved it from day 1. This was a great comfort to us as it made it easy to drop her off and see her having fun whilst we carried on working and adjusted to a new country. The staff are brilliant and friendly and it's easy to use the online system to check-in on what your child has been up to or book extra days attendance when needed. They also have after-school care which my daughter will be going to as soon as she starts school. There were lots of other international families for me to chat to and get advice.”

- Jennifer Leach

“Very internationally focused early days child care centre. As an expat family, we got enourmous support from administration team about childcare subsidies of Dutch government. Teachers, assistants and helpers are giving everything to make kids feel home. Also following effective methods to teach language skills, music, social interaction and micro motor skills. Very happy and safe place, totally recommend it for all.”
