Toddlers can continue with the same programme after the Summer break, at Smallsteps “De Club”, located in the IPSA, International Primary School Almere, in Literatuurwijk.
Smallsteps will follow the standards of the EYFS, Early Years Foundation Stage, relevant to all who wish to enrol their kids in the primary school in the future.
Smallsteps childcare has almost 300 childcare locations in the Netherlands and it’s easy to find out more about their mission and values on their website.

Volgens Nu.zakelijk Autobezit wordt gestimuleerd door de parkeervergunningen die in veel Nederlandse steden worden uitgegeven, dit zijn immers "gesubsidieerde" parkeerplaatsen. Dat blijkt donderdag uit onderzoek door drie economen van de Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. Het onderzoek heet "Car ownership and residential parking subsidies: Evidence from Amsterdam" en is van Jesper de Groote, Jos van Ommeren en Hans R.A. Koster van de Vrije Universiteit. Samengevat: SUMMARY? Many cities around the world have introduced paid parking but implicitly subsidize parking for example by providing residential parking permits for street parking.
We study the welfare effects of residential parking subsidies through changes in car ownership for Amsterdam. We employ a boundary-discontinuity design that exploits spatial variation in the length of waiting lists for permits and therefore in the size of the parking subsidy. In the city center, the waiting time for a permit is up to four years. Our results indicate that one additional year of waiting for a parking permit reduces car ownership with 2 percentage points corresponding to a price elasticity of car demand of?0.8. We demonstrate that subsidizing residential parking induces a substantial welfare loss. On average, a parking permit induces anannual deadweight loss of 270. Furthermore, we show that the provision of parking permits is an income-regressive policy: rich households are five times more likely than poor households to receive these (implicit) parking subsidies.
