ISF International Daycares ISF operates two daycare facilities for children aged from 6 weeks to 2,5 years; one in Waterloo and another one in Tervuren.

Children are exposed to English, French and Dutch throughout the day and we promote the development of language by incorporating the “WapperKids” sign language method.

Our specialised internal design, decorations, and equipment of all our facilities are based on world class research from Professor Karen Dobkins of University of California San Diego (www.babylab.ucsd.edu) and Dutch designer Roy Verbakel (www.spacious-minds.com). We have created visual experiences to enhance the sensory and mental development of your child.

ISF International Daycare is regulated by Kind & Gezin (Flanders’ Child & Family Agency).

Both creches are open 6:30am - 6:30pm each day.
